In honor of the upcoming soccer game ...

Yahh our first World Cup points ever! :jump:


...much perfer to watch Rugby though...bring on the Rugby World Cup!
 
Yeah!
Another incredible 1-1 victory!

The country is beside itself...;)
And a new National Hero is born!
 
Just seen the Slovenia v USA game, couldn't believe the referee's decision on Altidore's goal.

USA were robbed! :censored:
 
There is always an other side to the story!

Slovenia was robbed as the second goal was scored out of a very questionable free-kick. For those you don't remember; US player runs against arm of a Slovanian striker and drops like he has been hit on his cheek. The following free kick leads to the goal. When this goal would have been scored who knows how the game woould have ended.

As the referee blew his whistle before the ball entered the goal, there has never been a third US goal. Nobody except the referee know what he saw, which made him decide to blow his whistle, or are there people here who can read other people's minds via the television.

I know what I have seen on television, but I have seen enough live football to realise that this is most probably not what the referee has seen.

Cheers,
Huub
 
A bad day for referees.


I still want the head of that spanish clown in referee clothing on a silver plate...although he was just a part in a game of incompetence versus stupidity. But still...
 
Our team has a few amateur players in it!

Hear Hear!
An even bigger 1-1 victory than the last one!
Italy is in mourning...
 
Amazing All Whites

I must confess that I never was interested in soccer in any kind at all.
These days, I sometimes feel I'm the only german getting annoyed of flag-waving and vuvuzela-blowing morons passing my way...

But:
Having a soft spot for underdogs, I'm a little engrossed with those Kiwis!

we won ours as well :frown: *cue drunken twats causeing havoc trying to cross a busy main road whilst blowing plastic horns and throw in a good dose of obbssed media for good measure*
 
Sorry, fellows, but you've got no chance. My dear neighbours, England, have now managed to score a total of 2 goals in 3 games, and, as everybody must agree, that makes them world-beaters. Oh dear.....
 
First time USA has won their group since 1930. :isadizzy:

Where I live, the USA win might get a casual mention on page 5 of the sports section of the newspaper.
