Against an admittedly poor England team the best you could get was a draw, and even that was down to a very poor goal keeping error.Originally Posted by Catfish

Good result for Japan last night. Hard lines for New Zealand though - going out, but remaining unbeaten.
One of the best goals so far

The list of brilliant Japanese inventions keeps piling on. Now we can add "Found a way to score on a direct kick with the 2010 World Cup ball."
But like the man said, England was supposed to drill us. Weren't we like 6-1 underdogs? And, also like the man said, soccer is our No. 7 or 8 sport for us
Oh, I admit that. The expectancy was for England to soundly beat the US. But that's the joy of football - you can't predict what is going to happen next. I've seen Manchester United spank big clubs one match, then get spanked themselves by a mid league team in the next match.But like the man said, England was supposed to drill us.

While the World Cup is being called boring by pundits here, I'm quite enjoying seeing things not as everyone expected. England being so poor that they only just scrape through, Italy crashing out as bottom of the group, France imploding before the worlds media.... etc
Even Spain still have work to do tonight; no South American team has lost yet at this World Cup and Spain need a win.
After being eliminated from the world cup, Nigeria, Cameroon and Algeria fans are expected to arrive back home in England tomorrow
I hate those fucking vuvuzelas. But if I were attending the games in South Africa, I'd be blowing the everloving fuck out of them!
That sounded weird.
You really must like South Africans A LOT!
Taking your shirt off and kicking a ball back and forth next to a freeway for 3 hours does not make this a sport. That's called EXERCISE.
and wearing a helmet at a game makes you a pussy

I have a question for the europeans on the board.
How is attending a soccer game in your respective countries?
Is there food available during the course of the game? Tailgating outside? I'm not sure why that's the first to come to mind, but it's been something that's been nagging at my brain.
Still waiting for a relevant Browns Team
How Rude.
How About The Other Overseas Members.
Dan, I' think you would be better to ask about the "All-Blacks"How Rude.
How About The Other Overseas Members..
Depends on the game really. By and large there is a good atmosphere at the games - some of the chants can be pretty good.
Then there is the flip side which is a derby game. Derby games always bring a degree of trouble with them - some more than others (Celtic vs Glasgow, Newcastle vs Sunderland, Manchester United vs Manchester City for example).
Go US nuke em!
that goes fast! 1-0 Ghana
1-1 Penalty
Damn,Ghana 2-1 USA.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!!!!!!!!!! That's all I have to say about that game. Plus I've been noticing this trend of soccer players faking their injuries by falling on the ground and acting like a little bitch.
Amen To That.
Like This One.
LOL,This One Takes The Cake.
I took a couple of New Yorkers to a second division game with just a few thousand crowd here. It ended 0-0 and they loved it.
It's all about the atmosphere which can be more like a rock gig than say a baseball game. I think it's getting less and less good each year though as they have civilised it.
I'm nostalgic for the days of going to see Scotland play in the early 80s where there might be 80 000, mostly unseated and the toilets consisted of a wall with a trough.
Much less atmosphere at a World Cup these days because it is so corporate and money based. For example at the last World Cup that Scotland were at in France in 1998 we couldn't get tickets for the opening game against Brazil. In a stadium of 80 000 Scottish fans were given 3 000 tickets, Brazil fans got 3 000 and the other 74 000 went to FIFA people, sponsors and so forth. Fucking joke.
FIFA which is a pretty corrupt organisation expect to make over 2 billion from this World Cup.
I'm not really sure how South Korea managed to lose today.
I guess it's all about having good strikers.
You know if he were to try that poofy shite in Rugby, American Football, Austrailian Rules Football, Gaelic Football or any other sport which requires Testicles--his coach would smack him around like a little bitch and drag him back to the field. And if nothing happened, then an on-field fight between the two team would ensue.LOL,This One Takes The Cake.
They may as well call the game "Cuntball", "Twatball" or "Arseball".
Ha! Ha!
Like This One.
I have to agree with BYA about these aspects of this sport... Some players do act like schoolboys, or fags.
Yet not all of them are that way... I don't watch soccer much anymore, but I used to back in the 80s when France had
a great team with great players who were great guys, winning the 1984 Euro and Olympic Games, though always being
stopped by Germany in the World Cup semi finals.
Anyway this is an extract from France-Denmark during the European Championships in 1984, there was a real fault from
Danish Olsen on defender Amoros, who... but just watch!

You mean germans!Plus I've been noticing this trend of soccer players faking their injuries by falling on the ground and acting like a little bitch.
How is the Dutch team this year? I do wish them to win this year,
just because they deseved to IMO, in '74 and... '98. Though they probably aren't
as strong as they were back then, what if it were Holland's turn this time!
We're gonna make it this year!
Achtung Achtung long ball down the middle...
Our turn for a bad decision - disallowed goal.
I said this to Catfish - bad calls happen.
I would like to sum up Englands performance with a single word - Shite
Natra - Congrats, you could have slapped us by 7 or 8.
Bit of a carnival atmosphere in the pub here but starting to regret the leather shorts as they chaffe.
Just prepare yourself for the media now blaming the entire thing on the Ref.
