Re: World Cup 2006

It was a tough game..Argentina played well, Germany played well...Argentina had bad luck in the penalty kicks and unfortunately they are out...I think it would have been different if the other goal keeper was there..he was awesome during the Copa Libertadores.... The fact that the coach didn't put Messi in was a big mistake as he should have started him since the beginning...Now Argentina has to wait another 4 years....Good for the German fans they must be drinking tons of beer now

Re: World Cup 2006

this man can't get another world cup match on his life.
can't believe he got this one after the horrible job on Brasil-Ghana.

i first thought he was giving the fouls against argentina, then i realized he's awful for both sides.

Agree.. this is why I was glad the match was settled with a PK shootout. No refs w/ last second BS calls or lack of calls that would give favor to either team. It sux when a match is final through a PK shoot, but in this case it was a good remedy.

Also, FIFA needs to allow subs in OT.

Re: World Cup 2006

Fuck, Italy is the most cynical team in the world.

Just as they were taking that corner, my g/f was saying "wow I think Ukraine are gonna draw", and I said "bah, Italy is always like this, they´´re always sticking people on their goalline to avoid goals and then they score in corners like this, just watch" and BLAM!, as soon as I said this phrase, Italy scores 2-0...

And now Ukraine put one in the crossbar...

Re: World Cup 2006

Well i really think aregentina is a unluckiest team i've ever known .. they play amazing football and they really deserved to win that today but klose's attempt was successful against the goalie and he was substituted ... and i think the coach was just bad sustituting riquelme leaving no really strong mid-attacker .. he put cruz with no one to assist in the midfield making cruz fall back most of the time to collect the ball ..germany was really lucky imo they wouldnt hav had a chance against argentina if the goal keeper was there and teh coach didnt sustitute riquelme ...

Re: World Cup 2006

First of all.....





Yesterday's Game made me 5 years older in 120 minutes though. The referee sucked big times and put the damn whistle in his mouth for EVERY attack, no matter how small it was...HELLO????? This is football, a men's sports and no fucking chess. A Game like yesterday deserved two winners but sadly this is not possible. Argentina and Germany were equal strong both playing a different type of Football but every team played good and I am sure, they could have played 2 hours more and nobody would have scored. Penalty shooting is always a matter of luck and it seems that yesterday the Football God was on our side. I am especially proud because we played with 5 player under the age of 21 and for such a young team this is a huge success and gives hope for the Future. Next Game against Italy will be equally tough but everything is possible now and we still have a bill open with Italy and Brazil anyway so bring them on.

"We are going to stay here till the end, that's for sure"

2 things I did not like was that our stupid organization/security team obviously had a problem with Maradona bringing somebody with him who was not on the guest list so they told him to go and Maradona left the Stadium as well...wtf...as far as it belongs to me, Maradona can bring Lions and Snakes with him and I would allow him to enter the Stadium....he is Maradona so this was bullshit par excellence. What I did not understand at all was the short fight after the Game was over...till today I don't know what happened or why the Argentinians thought it was a foul Game..I know they are very proud football players but I didn't get it at all.
