RC-1162 Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 actually, in that match, the US played worse than our school football team they were simply passing here and there without any aim. but ill admit, the shot from reyna which hit the post and almost went in was good. i want the US to lose like this in all their matches. (no offense to the US supporters)
swediot=) Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 well its not like the US were expected to beat the CZECHS anyway. 3-0 is not that bad it could have been worse
Sabretooth Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 LOL, Australia put up a good show in the last ten minutes. I had almost concluded the match to be in favour of the Japanese, with a 1-0 or 2-0 result. But whoa, Australia strikes THREE goals on Japan. Excellent playing! Today are some big matches. I'm looking forward to France vs. Switzerland and Brazil vs. Croatia. I hope France and Croatia win... and Togo. I support the underdogs.
RC-1162 Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 youre not supporting brazil? i am and i hope they begin their world cup with an astounding win
Sabretooth Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 I'm anti-Brazil, because frankly I'm normally against anything that's on the top - Microsoft , Brazil, EA, etc.
TSR Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 strabge perception on life, but same here. i have no idea why. i guess it's cos we aren't:xp:
Ztalker Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 The Czech owned pretty hard, yeah. And they were one of the few 'strong' countries that did put up a good show and score. England only won with 1-0, same goes for Holland. Australia-Japan was quit...strange...i though Japan would win it, playing it smart. It's unbeleivable how quickly Australia made those 3 goals.
RC-1162 Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 you said it. i thought the Aussies were pwned by the time the first half was over. just goes to say nobody should be underestimated. by the audience that is.
Raevan Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 boy brasil will kick some croatian ass today at 21 H woah
Ztalker Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 I don't know... Can Brazil put the ego's aside and finish it? And don't underestimate the Croatians. They are a quit strong football-nation.
The Doctor Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 ^ I'm rooting for Croatia, actually. I want to see Brazil taken down by a team like Croatia. France 0:0 Switzerland.
MachineCult Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 Hey i am Croatian ............. Drago mi je, lol, he was being nice about Croatia. Doctor, I want to see Brazil get taken down, period. (Maybe by England, hehe) I assume you're English if you like Dr. Who...
The Doctor Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 Actually, I'm Canadian, and my Dad was born in Alkmaar. So I'm going for the Netherlands. And I don't want Brazil out of their group. Period. I don't care who brings them down - I just think it would be awsome to see them fall to Croatia, when everyone expects Croatia to be slaughtered.
MTV2 Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 Brazil 1:0 Croatia. I thought it was going to be atleast like 3:0 or something.
The Doctor Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 Darn. All well, I guess it'll be up to someone else to take out Brazil. Does anyone know what games are being played tommorow? I can't seem to find a decent match schedule. Could someone post a link to a good one?
DarthOxyClean Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 Germany vs. Poland Spain vs. Ukraine Tunisia vs. S. Arabia
The Doctor Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 Sweet. Thanks a lot. I think the Germany Poland game is gonna be pretty cool. Can't wait for that one. I don't know about Tunisia and S. Arabia - two teams I don't really keep up with a lot.
Commander Obi-Wan Posted June 14, 2006 Posted June 14, 2006 I only get to watch the Spain vs Ukraine and Tunisia matches since I have to attend classes in the afternoon. Though, the game I want to watch is the Germany vs Poland match. But, meh. Go Germany. Though, the France vs Switzerland match was probably interesting.....especially when your facing a team that hasn't scored in the World Cup since 1998.
swediot=) Posted June 14, 2006 Posted June 14, 2006 since when was france an underdog? And i never thought brazil could beat croatia 3-0 croatia are too good to let in 3 goals even from a team like brazil
lukeiamyourdad Posted June 14, 2006 Author Posted June 14, 2006 Meh, Brazil underestimated Crotia I think. 1-0 is not that great, considering the team they have vs a non-1998 Crotia. Kaka's goal was nice, but seriously, they can't keep playing like this if they want to go far. France did pretty badly too. I said earlier that Zidane won't change anything. Obviously, it didn't Oh, and the french supporter are idiots. When Henry was injured, he was off the pitch, the play can go on, Switzerland doesn't have to kick the ball out of the field to stop the game. We'll see what will happen in the Spain-Ukraine game. Up to now, only the Czech played exceptionally well and demonstrated a lot of ease on the pitch. well its not like the US were expected to beat the CZECHS anyway. 3-0 is not that bad it could have been worse That's not really the thing. I don't think the US can beat the Czech, but they certainly wouldn't get trashed like that, considering they're number 5 in the rankings (yeah, they do not reflect the quality of the team very well, but still, it's a relatively good reference). It could certainly have been worse, but if you've seen the game, they seriously got a trashing. Final note for today, I hope Poland gets a trashing so I can laugh at my friends when they cry. Yes, that's the kind of person I am
Sabretooth Posted June 14, 2006 Posted June 14, 2006 France did poorly, I had expected much better of Zidane's men. Looks like France is off my World Cup Hopes section with England... Kaka's goal was awesome, though it's a shame Croatia lost. I hope the Germans get them sometime... Germany plays today. It'll be fun watching the Poles get thrashed by the German aggression, I suppose. Spain too plays today and I'll try to catch this one. Spain is one time I'll like to support soon...
Ztalker Posted June 14, 2006 Posted June 14, 2006 Every single match that has been played, wasn't spectacular or 'good' imo. I think the tension, and action will start after the first round, when the '7-2-1' system playing nations get filtered away, and the real football-playing nations get to face each other.
RC-1162 Posted June 14, 2006 Posted June 14, 2006 the Brazil match was not that exciting. true, Kaka shot a good goal and i am supporting them, but they've seriously lost form, especially Adriano and Carlos oh, and a general bit of info, for info on the world cup, go to here
