View Full Version : [OT] World Cup 2006
It all kicks off today! I'm going to be watching quiet a few matches, and I'll be down the pub to back England.
So who want's to edge their bets in - England to lift the cup in 4 weeks time. ;)
P.S. Does anyone remember what the tune from the 2002 World Cup is called that was used in the Coca Cola adverts?

I think england is "fast", and will be finished with cup in 3 weeks already *eg*
Finals with Brasilia and Germany, result: 1:2
....
(got no clue actually, is that even possible, or do both meet earlier ?)

Ive put my money on Germany. They always have a good team, and obviously plaing at home may help.
To be honest, i really do not think Englands team is any good, i mean, Rio Ferdinand is in it, the guy who always drops people in the shit by making school boys errors with comediatic timing.
France has a good team now with Henry,Riberry,Abidal,Ziddane...
For me it will be France and brasilia :3.2
Finals with Brasilia and Germany, result: 1:2Not sure about that... Germanys team is at a low point atm... broken trainings and so on...

Brazil and Germany can meet in the Final if they both win their groups or if they are both finish 2nd in their groups. If one side finishes 2nd and the other side finishes 1st in their groups, they will meet in the Semi Finals.

England won't make it out of this current grouping. Number 2 seed my arse, we'll be back in blighty inside two weeks.
As Dirk Wilhelmy already said: "Germany needs a fourth star on their jersey!" So we will make it! :p

France had an excellent team last world cup. They failed to score a single goal. We'll see - I can't imagine there wil be as many upsets as Japan/Korea 2002 though.
germany never had a good team in the last 16 years and won games nonetheless :p
Belgium will ....
oh right...
we will drink beer and watch Brazil take the cup

man, that opening was embarassing 8|
edit @ KK:
What about a little bet: If Germany wins vs Costa Rica you ll give us another content spoiler for the patch?
what an opening ceremony :lol:
didn't know the worldcup was hosted by bavaria O_o
well btw the german captain isn't plarticipating in any of the matches 8|
Im off down rhe pub shortly to watch tonight's matches :D
If by fluke England make it past the first round, we'll get shafted on penalties as usual.
The result will only be as good as the bribe offered to the referee. 1998 - we score - disallowed - we lose. 1986 - opposition score with a fucking HAND - allowed - we lose. Go figure.
I feel sorry for that old biddy on the News (mega England fan) that has already bought tickets for the final and other matches. You'd get a better view from a widescreen TV in the pub drinking Cider. :p
I'm german and i hope we will win the WM... but i'm realist, i bet 15 € on England (a bet with some friends).
lol @ people saying Germany.
England are goin to do it this time.
in your face costa rica IN YOUR FACE !
and england will not win anything.
Sweden and Paraguay will pwn them :p

hard to say really... costa rica wasnt a true opponent - let's wait for wednesday (germany vs poland). That's where we'll see if the german team will manage to get somewhere or not... against costa rica they didnt have to push themselves tbh - although the german defense (what defense?) was akward 8|
i remember england loosing against northern ireland in the qualification dont tell me something about shame ;)
and indeed the germans should change keepers
Germany had a decent game, great first goal.
I hoped costa rica was gonna make a game of it, they almost did, but never mind.
Its ENG.... ERRRR....LAND tomorrow (where did that ERRR come from?) which i'm sure my fellow country men will be watching :)
Best of luck to everyone and their home nations. I love the world cup because its a great event for the world. We all (well football fans and patriots, hehe) get to see quality football.
I cant wait.
omg 4-2 to germany
my bad
BTW it was 4 - 2 to germany :p Never discount the home nation.
They have got to the last 4 or 2 teams too many times.
it's ger 4:2 crc, not 3:1
England playing tomorrow. :p Whenever I say the word England in my head, I always think of Sean Bean saying "For England, James" in Goldeneye. lol
England all the way baby :p
And if not England, I'm liking a bit of Portugal :D
You might think I'm just saying it, but Germany really aren't on form this year in my opinion...

If the German defence plays like that against a good team, they'll get torn to shreds.
But like ive said, the German footy team is wierd, has a machine-like mentality lol.
ya, defence sucked big time in this game, tho i liked the more offensive playstyle they now have (compared to the 90s )
i think they tried the offside trap a lil too hard :p

btw... you underlined the wrong w :D
- concerning Poland: I think they underestimated Ecuador by far .. and I think they'll manage to recover. Still expecting a tough match.
I agree. Poland won't win anything but they are capable of knocking out some good teams. They'll be fired up for the Germany game and will be looking to take advantage of any of the poor defending we witnessed.
I hope England aren't as laid back tomorrow.
Not long untill the England match :D going to another pub to watch this one, lol

Come on Engrishland. :) We're probably gonna be screwed over by the heat though. Way too hot at the moment. :p
England are about to kick off (20secs from now). Fingers crossed :) I'm sweating just by sitting here in the shade... damn weather. Thankfully part of the roof is making a big shady area in the middle of the pitch. :p
hahaha owned, goal by Beckham (sort of) at 3mins from kickoff.
come on ENGLAND thats 3 points in the bag
come on ENGLAND thats 3 points in the bag
not well earned tho' :)
No, we looked tired in the second half but we did enough when Paraguay attacked. I thought the defence did well. Joe Cole held onto the ball too long on a few occasions and Gerrard doesn't seem acquainted with the new 50p ball that FIFA have issued. It was a mistake to take Owen off, Crouch was shite on his own.
Yeah, I think that's mostly because Crouch is a lanky bar steward. lol Silly substitutions seem to happen in every England match, but looking on the bright sight, Owen doesn't have any injuries now, I guess they decided to save him for the next match, same reason Shrek wasn't playing. First half started well and England played well till the end of the 49mins. Second half started off crap by England, obviously the 30C heat had a big effect on them. Lampard was top notch. :)
Bleh. Thats the second half England that will get knocked out in the second round. I can't say I believe tiredness was any explanation for the way they played there.
I wouldn't risk Rooney this early though, he's only just started to train properly. Sven said that taking Owen off was a tactical decision. :wtf: We were even worse after he left cos there was no real attacking ability.
His name isn't Rooney, it's Shrek damnit. :p
one of the reason where the ref wouldnt let the players get a drink
hahaha owned, goal by Beckham (sort of) at 3mins from kickoff.
/set england_manager_mode 1
It was a home goal. Ok 3 points in the bag for England but thats wasn't a good performance from our side.
..and by luck the Sweden and Trinidad & Tobago was a 0-0 score, meaning we are top of the table. I was expecting that game to be 2-0 meaning England would be 2nd in table on goal difference.
I know it was, which is why I put "sort of" in brackets. It was on target for being a goal without hitting him, as the commentators/other footballers agreed. It only just scimmed the guys head. Their goalie was crap, and pretended to be injured straight after the goal so he could be subbed and avoid further embarassment. The first half was a decent performance by England, they had pretty much total control of the ball, and played things the way they wanted, at the speed they wanted (because of the heat). The second half is where they went downhill.
If you could do a better performance at a temperature of 30C maybe you should join England. ;)

I think that Ref was rediculous, its matches like that when I wonder if Mr Kot is actually right :rolleyes:
3:1
Yay! :D
I thought that game (Australia Vs Japan) was going to be 1-0 to Japan, but someone here at work got very excited by the equaliser and the two late goals.
I think he's planning on holding a celebration BBQ later today! ;)

Well last nights Brazil vs Croatia (1-0) match was a bit poor from the Brazil side, but nearly everyone's opening game has been poor.
Tonight's match Germany Vs Poland should be a cracker, as Poland really need to win the match it to stand a chance of staying in the contest.

Trinidad & Tobago were defending with 8 players for nearly all of that game. It was just a matter of time before we broke them down. We didn't play as well as we can but that just means we'll get better as we go on. We didn't need injury time to win it either. :D

tbh, T&T was unexpected strong as well on the defense as on the offensive. There was a good chunk of luck involved in the last 10 mins. T&T had good chances to score

15-06-06, 21:21
England were shite, they played into T&T's plan perfectly. They didn't break up their defences, they wasted time setting up passes and shots, all which just made T&T's defence all that easier, only towards the end did they realise that they had to bring the pace up.
We play either Germany or Ecuador in the next round. Can't say much about Ecuador, but I think Germany will spank us, even with their lack-lustre defence.

If they keep playing like this we won't make it to the quarters, let alone the final.
Not that I had any hope in England from the start, they have the players, but not the team work.
Today England were able to adapt to a playstyle that was equaling them.
After 60 minutes, Sven changed some stuff, and we started playing much better, and the game became exciting. We've always known that Terry, Lampard, Gerrard, Rooney, Beckham, Ferdinand and Owen are world class (and Carragher... but that's a different debate.) Today, Sven too played his part and showed that, (when he gets it right!) he's actually a fine tinkerman.
Had Crouch scored in the first half, and Gerrard scored in the second, then it would be all good. That is the nature of scoring goals - it's all about getting x chances and scoring a fraction of those chances. I don't care (maybe my cardiologist does) when those goals come, so long as they do, every 90 minutes... things that are statistical by nature do that kind of crap to us.
Quite the opposite of what happened against Paraguay, but yeah... ahem. Let's ignore that for now :angel:
It was good to see Gerrard finally get the measure of the new ball today too - he actually scored! I was thinking he was a little over-eager to score one of his trademark cannonball shots from outside the box, and kept on blasting them over - but if by doing that he'll score one every two games, hell, he can carry on for all I care!
T&T did well against Sweden, with 10 men. Sweden are certainly not a pushover. Doesn't that show T&T doing something right defensively? Yet England still scored two past them once they got their measure.
I was pleased by this result. Much more than the Paraguay result.
It's not all positives, but hell - that's what I'm concentrating on right now. Rose tinted glasses? You bet! This is the World Cup, what's wrong with that? All I'm doing is offering another way to look at this.
To all the nay-sayers, would you fear (uhoh, sorry KK) Germany, who got a goal in the last minutes of their last match?
If you believe that England played badly, then this is clichéd, but true - it's a hallmark of a good team when they play badly and still win. And we have qualified for the next stage with 33% of our games left.
Edit: 40th post, and a friend just told me that he'd like to create a mirror of a world cup final 40 years ago... it's an omen I tells ya!
T&T Defended very well, I give and respect them for that!
Still a 2-0 result for England, means we qualify for the next round. ;)
Sweden won 1-0 against Paraguay.
Sweden won 1-0 against Paraguay.
ya :(
Sweden won 1-0 against Paraguay.
Yeah, watched them both down the pub, both pretty good matches.
Although he scored, I still think Crouch is utter SHITE, the amount of perfect crosses Beckham put in that Crouch fucked up is dismal, and Lampard was a bit of a let down. John Terry on the other hand was worth his weight in gold, might as well have dropped the other 3 defenders :p
I'm still liking Lennon, I honestly think him, Ashley Cole and Rooney (maybe a bit of Owen, not exactly a fan) are going to decimate the German defence...
Sweden won 1-0 against Paraguay.
too bad theres only one game left for u guys
TnT ftw :)
I'm not sure of the average age of players here, but those who remember, cast your mind back 4 years and 8 years. France and Brazil were UTTER shit in the league section of the tournament. 'Tis the nature of things.
However, why on Earth that tall lanky twat is up front is beyond me. It's not about how tall he is, it's about a "sense" of the game. He doesn't have it, simple.
For my money, put Rooney and Owen on for 60 mins, see how it goes and where the openings are, then maybe sub one for Theo or Crouch to exploit the defense. But start with two players that have a clue ffs. (and Rooney not being match fit is a poor excuse, thats what the league portion is FOR).
Becks had one of those games where not much went right for him. Terry, as mentioned above was a class on his own.
p.s. The Argies are looking fucking good.
p.p.s Taking bets on Ecuador versus Germany being 0-0, England winning the group and getting to play Germany and losing in the next round?

We play either Germany or Ecuador in the next round. Can't say much about Ecuador, but I think Germany will spank us, even with their lack-lustre defence.
LOL. ok first off Ecuador havent actually conceded a goal and won by 2 nil and 3 nil if im not mistaken. They beat poland 2 nil and costa rica 3 nil.
Germany spanked costa rica but let 2 goals in then couldnt score in a brothel vs poland. Ok the polish keeper was nothing short of superb but they had to throw everything in to it to get that goal to take the win.
Having watched all the group a games i would rather england face germany and peter crouch either stop trying to be a flash bastard and just play within himself or we play owen and rooney up front than we play ecuador with any squad.
My girlfriend is german and she is disgusted the way they are playing at the moment. All her friends are the same. they started hopefully with a 4-2 spanking but then when it came to the crunch they took way too long to put poland away for good.
Im not gonna even go in to england as to me they need to REALLY REALLY sort their game plan out. we have stars on that team that arent acting like it while others languish on the bench. its about time they all pulled together and start acting like it. enough said.
:) ps. Hi everyone. World cup fever has me. :)
Italy 1 - 1 USA
USA deserved to win against Italy. (i was as shocked as the next man)
The first half they really got at them, the italians didnt know what had happened. The USA's keeper did a fantastic job and they even scored a goal which was disallowed for offside. I missed the replay of it tho, was it a good decision by the ref?
Was still a good game to watch even tho it was kinda spoilt by the 2 red cards.
Italy really need to raise their game in the next round.
Althought the same can be said for alot of the teams this year.
Brazil play tonight with lazy ronaldo :)

The replay showed he was off side but took no part in the actual play, so the goal could have stood.
There were 3 red cards one to italy then 2 to usa.
Must agree though USA played far better than i expected.
As for Brazil v Australia who kick off at 5pm BST who cares about the football keep panning that camera over the crowd
Can't wait until it's all over. I just don't like football.

Ghana steamrolled over us last night, a very impressive peformance, even tho we're missing two of our best goal scorers (Koller and Baros) and have to make do with that retard Lokvenc.
Group E is still pretty open ended it seems...
Final Group rounds start today.
Group A. Between Germany and Escuador it's a game to decide who finishes at the top of the group, as both teams have qualified. The game between Poland and Costa Rica is just a game before they both pack up and go home...
Group B. Between Sweden and England, again it's decide who finishes at the top of the group. A draw is all England need but if England win, it gets interesting. (And being a England supporter I expect a win!)
For Sweden, if they loose, and Trinidad and Tobago win, it's possible could go through to the knock out stages on goal difference if they score the same number of goals as England and Sweden added together. And since Paraguay are going home anyway, Trinidad and Tobago have got a very good chance.
3:0 baby..

It's good to see Lampard is keeping up his rugby practice, all those lovely kicks right over the center of the bar.
Numpty.

Bunch of dilberts, 2 all, the last swedish goal should have been easily saved.
England's Goals = Decent, quite shiney.
England's general performance = Wank. Utter Wank. :p
Poor Owen, watch him be out for the start of the season for the toon too :/
1st Half - brilliant, 2nd Half - Crap.
And Owen, just hope he really isn't out for the rest of the World Cup.
I was thinking "ugh, we're doomed".
Guess I was right :(, second half, we played absolutely shit like the other two matches. The only two good shots in the second half was the cross that led to the goal. Sweden totally outplayed us for those 45mins, and easily got by our shit defense. We were going to win 2-1 out of luck at the end, but thanks to the shitty defense, and our goalkeeper being a spoon, they scored a moment later.
It was like the fluidity had quickly gone, and Gerrard was concentrating more on being the goalie. Not out yet at least, bleh. Let's hope they put more practice in.
It was the set pieces that the defense didn't handle well but not much got past them in open play. Sweden looked worried when Joe Cole got the ball and man-handled him a few times. Rooney had a good run out even though he'd have liked to have done better. He was dangerous in the first half but looked tired in the second. He should play well enough against Ecuador for at least another 60 mins. Disappointing that we didn't win but there was no point wrecking ourselves when we'd already qualified.

Can't say I'm a big fan of football (soccer for you american geeks), but I must admit that most of the football players should consider acting instead...
I mean, come on! Someone simply falls and then they lie there and look like having a gruesome pain, like someone just stabbed them in the face...
This sport just have to much faking in it that it's even hard to watch the game seriously.
I wish remaining countries good luck anyway :).
England 1:0 Ecuador
booooring :eek:
England 1:0 Ecuador
booooring :eek:
/signed - Nice goal though.
Sorry but England is playing like Germany in the last worldcup. Very much luck, less skill. So maybe we meet em in the finals? :D
It's not luck, we were playing quite crap in most of the second halves because us Englanders aren't used to hot weather :p, it's just good opportunities are made, and usually goals are scored. We have good people like Terry and Gerrard helping defend the goal as well. Today we played alright, but there weren't that many chances of goals because Sven is a pleb. He left Rooney literally by himself for most of the time thanks to his formation change. If Rooney had at least another person to help nearby, we would have scored a goal that wasn't from a free kick.
All there is to say is Beckham Special FTW. Most of the time people are saying Beckham doesn't put any effort in, or he's lost the plot, it's only that most of his effort goes unnoticed. Sven was even asked about taking Beckham off the pitch if he keeps putting in a poor performance. Glad he made the goal today, Beckham shoved it right back in their face.
PS. When did Victoria Beckham get a boob job? lol All she has to do is eat some pies now to put on some weight.

People place too much stock on Rooney. I'm reckoning if it goes right, he's a saint, if it goes wrong, he's a scapegoat. Exactly the way it went with beckham. Testament to the fact that a lot of footie fans are fickle gobshites.

Roony in my opinion is the only world class player we have, when he's on form.
Still, he couldnt touch a player like Gazza for instance, when he was at his prime.
Sorry but England is playing like Germany in the last worldcup. Very much luck, less skill. So maybe we meet em in the finals? :DThey were, but not today.
Sven wisely chose to put 5 midfielders between the opposition and our goal, in order to prevent another piss-poor defence like when we allowed Sweden to leak too many goals through. Even on previous matches where we let through no goals, we had too many scary moments.
How many other teams' players could match Beckham's free kick today? (other than Ronald(hin)o of course :p )
But yes, i will look forward to us meeting ze germans in the finals ;)
Turkish: Fuck me, hold tight. What's that?

We wouldn't see them in the finals anyway I think, it would be the semis.

We might have the players, but not the team, and our finishes are appaling.

The ref sucked rofl. Yes lets give everyone a red card? Why was Deco sent off? And yes the England match was soooooo boring.
4 red cards do not make for a pretty game, but a hilarious one. Insert joke about ref and excessive consumption of vodka here.I guess you didn't see the Croatia game then. Of all referees it had to be an English one that fucked up and gave the same person 3 yellow cards in the same match. :p
I watched a good play last night soon to be on in the west end. it was a farsical play by fifa set on a football pitch called portugal v holland :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
Never seen such poor refereeing in my life (didnt see polls match :p ) and ive seen friendlier rugby matches. Bring back collena.

England can only meet Germany in the finals.
Well Beckham saves the day for England with that amazing free kick. I don't think I've seen one like that since the England Vs Turkey(?) that equalised the scores to put us into the 2002 world cup.
Portugal vs Netherlands? Yellow/red card fest there, and some bad referee decissions, and some very bad acting from the players there. I like to see the newspapers in Netherlands today.
Italy 1 - Australia 0
The refs in these games just get better and better... :eek: That last minute penalty was so not a penalty.

what about coles leg when he slid in the box to save the score going to 1-1

You can't really blame the referree as much as FIFA.
Their ridiculous little stupid rules take out the speed joy
and rythm of the game. That said though, this game was
sad. Both sides were immature.
16 yellow with 4 red. http://neocron.jafc.de/images/smilies/old/redface.gif
Boularhouz' kick with Ronaldo wasn't very pretty, but Figo's
actions were really low. Although I did like the fact he [Ronaldo]
went of crying like a baby, selfish tard. With almost every
portugese player on yellow, I don't think england should be
really worried about going through even with their 'performance'
this year.
all the better for england tbh cos they need to be very very careful now
haha

I don't think that will stop Portugal on Saturday, thats why a team has 23 players in the squad.
And was the Switzerland vs Ukraine a boring match? I was listening to it on BBC broadband, with the picture minimised, and the commentary was more exciting when they talked about anything but the football game. Even them talking about the fact that the 10 O'clock news was going to be late was more exciting than that football game.
Hopefully 2 good games coming today Spain Vs France and Brazil vs Ghana.
P.S. @ Napper - Yeah Ashley Coles, sliding kick to save the ball was excellent, I forgot about that.
but if they foul they could lose alot of good players but yes i agree if england play like they did the last match they will lose
Ghana will win the world cup anyway

Italy v Ukraine (Italy to win)
England v Portugal (England of course to win! :D )

Rules of the game - most minor fouls the referee will say play on, but more serious fouls (Like unsporting behaviour) yellows or reds can be awarded, and a ree kick (Or penalty) is awarded.
Personally anyone diving should be given a red card, not a yellow. Then maybe we will see some decent football and less cheating, like in Thierry Henry's case. (Thinking of it, didn't Puyol have a clash with Henry in the UEFA cup final?)

The Henry incident changed the entire game, till then Spain were easy winning.
The Germany/Argentina game is going to decide one of the teams in the final in my opinion. Both teams have played really well, so i intend to sit down and watch it, supporting Germany naturally (bloody Argies, Maradona, yada yada).
I havent seen Ukraine play, but i dont think Italy are playing too well either, so i anything could happen.
If England play on good form, and get over the heat im sure we can beat the Poruagese, but i wouldnt be so sure.
Brazil should decimate France into a smoking pile of crap.

France has the older team of this world cup, okay.
But they got a lot of experience and some new players that could be surprising against brasil.
Saying brasil should decimate France is ignoring that France did win 2 of the last 3 matchs france brasil and the last one was 0-0.

Honestly, for me, the present tense is that ronaldinho walked on the ball and falled on the ground. Wathever he done before, he falled on the ground because of that. He just suck. Present tense.
When I tell you about the past, it's to show what this players can do, they may become older but when you have tallent, it doesn't disappear with the time... They just cannot run 90 min, but hey, that's why you can change players while the match.
Spain got a young team. Fine. They lost.

No, but the ability to apply that talent does disappear with time. Football is a young game now. Teams that hold onto the older players suffer in the long run. Germany and England did that a while back and played crap.

Herm it's not like those time only have "old" players you know.
They have young players too. Older team play different as younger teams, that's sure. I don't know if better or not.
Sure thing is that there is a compromise beetween the tallent+experience of a player and his age, to run fast and a lot.
Perfect team would be a 27 year old team composed of only tallented people. But that's irrealistic.
Past games are irrelevent.

Both teams played like crap in the group stages, but they have both improved in the knockout stages. I'm still sticking with Brazil to win, but it's still a hard one to call either way.

Looking forward to the Argentina/Germany game like, although i think the German defence might show its weakness against a team like Argentina.
This game will certainly decide one of the two teams in the final.
At least Michael Owen wasn't faking it like all those other time wasting cheating little cunts. They get tackled and pushed over and they roll around for half an hour covering their faces, trying to make the opponents get yellow or red cards.

Playing a significant portion of the game with 10 men, and without Rooney and Beckham, and losing on penalties?
Yes, certainly decimated.
david seaman was ok, but not up to Ricardos standard by a long shot.
watching England play has been a complete chore these last few weeks but i was inspired a little by their heroics today, but not in the least bit enjoyable except for maybe the first half of the paraguay match.
i really felt for the players, such bad luck, our best side for years blighted by poor tactics, management and injury...
:(
@Nid: taking the penalties wasn't so much the issue here
Remind me how many of our attempts went in again? :p
It's funny, I was saying to Sharon before the tournament started that everyone was praying for Roonie to be fit, but it was more likely that he'd screw up and leave us in the shit. And that's exactly what he did.

We really started to hold it together at one point :/
:( shit i really hoped for germany vs england in the finals
portugal is so gay and all of their fans here are just stupid fakes with an
iq of 80 omg i just wanted to kick them right in their mouth when i heard
those stupid faked Portugueses, that didn t even know the name of one of their players, talkin shit
It's queer you blame it on Rooney, and to be honest we played better without Rooney on the field. The reff didn't even notice Rooney accidentally standing on that mans goolies, then Ronaldo came over (as always) after he blew his whistlce to try and stir shit up, and to try and get the reff to give some sort of punishment. Rooney wasn't haven't any of that bullshit. He should have punched him in the face instead to say the least.
The main reason for Rooney being annoyed to begin with though was Sven; he put him all by himself for the second time. Earlier on in the game two Portugal players (Ronaldo included) were taking the piss out of Rooney as well. England prefer to play fair and honest rather than sitting around trying to exploit everything to the full, and pretending to be injured.
Our biggest downfall was Sven throughout every single game. He picked the players and didn't use half of them the way they should have been, and some of them were wrongly picked (mainly because they either haven't played in months, were injured or just not fit to play) in the first place. Substitution decisions were pretty bad most of the time too.
Like today, Joe Cole was playing decent, and making chances, and with Rooney and Beckham off, he finally decides to stick Peter Crouch on. Peter Crouch played quite well considering, but he's lanky, and only there really to pass the ball and hopefully score from headers. With those stilts he's not really the most skillful of people.
Edit:
Portugal decimated England into a smoking pile of crap.Bullshit. England played better than Portugal, after only having 10 players, and they didn't sit around with Ronaldo and other players whining on the floor at every turn. We lost on penalties because we aren't so lucky at it. If the game itself was judged and penalties didn't exist, we would have won by far.

Not so lucky? Some english shots were crap - sucks but thats life... the english goalie however was terrible... Ricardo performed extremely well... but heh ...Robinson wasnt "not as good as Ricardo", he was simply not up to it... not even anywhere close. England played a good match tho', a win would've been justified just as much as the loss.

Btw, I feel sorry for England since Portugal didn't deserve to win because of their girly falls. I would have loved a France-England confrontation. :(
I see Beckham has thrown in the towel too.
What a horrible match. I hate to say it but it did seem the ref was a bit biased.. the shit portugal was doing to get free kicks was a joke! And we barely got any when needed.. like if i remeber we could have got a penalty. As usal out in 1/4's, nvm.

The ref was very biased to Portugal IMHO. How many dives etc did Portugal do in that match? One thing I'll say about the other teams we (England) played upto that point was they all played a decent clean match.
Now the Portugal vs France game should have a new rule. Forget goals, the final score is decided who does the most dives.
As for Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney...don't get me started on that. One thing I'll say for Wayne Rooney is he should be the next captain. Why, remember David Beckham in 98? Well he got made captain, and he didn't misbhave since.

I think that the french team is pretty fair...
tomorrow u will see....
I will see a nice match, and I will just wonder why some players (mostly portugese) always fall so easely...
tomorrow u will see....
It's the Germany v Italy match today, and the Portugal v France tomorrow.
I can't call either match. Think Germany and France will get to the final.

he played against Jamaica didn’t he ?
or was that a friendy befor the cup started

How the fuck did Italy pull that off?
and why can't that happen to us with 2 minutes to go?
Germany was pretty weak, no ?
I wanted them to win ffs!

Hats off to both teams, they both played excellent. Italy just pulled off a couple of nice moves at the end, and finally scored. Both goalies did a great job.
Fucking hot weather though. My forehead just keeps dripping with sweat, and i'm sat on a leather chair just drinking vodka and orange juice... which I managed to just spill all over my fucking keyboard as I was shouting "FUCK" when Italy scored for the second time. I turned my keyboard upside down and a load of liquid just pour out, not good. Hopefully baby wipes have saved the day. :D

Nice match for Italy :)
They burned Corfu yesterday. I wonder what actually happened in Rome.
I hope for Italy and France in the finals, and France taking the cup in the end.
Will be a nice match to watch, Mundial of '06 was afterall Euro '06 :D
rome exploded yesterday :D
it was so close. :(
Great match though.
Guys when you watcg matches like these.... it's just that someone needs to win the thing. Germany is not inferior in any way, but there's gotta be a winner.
but...2 goals...in the last 2 min ??
and they also payed the fifa to ban Frings from the match
cmon they suck, say it :p
Yah, the game was pretty equal i'd say.
Was just bad luck that italy won in the end. Damn 2 minutes. If it wouldve been penalty shootout i bet germany would've made it. :(
