Re: World Cup 2006

they won the african group... i expected them to create some trouble.
palacio sucked because he had to play alone on the offensive, and he's not used to that kind of tasks.
wanted to see Messi too

Re: World Cup 2006

I´m not used to see Argentina play as if they were Italians..

Thy scored 2 goals but did little more than that and just tried to keep the game under control, with no real initiative or attacking football.

This is not the type of Argentiniam team I grew up supporting....

Riquelme is great though...he doesn´t move much but every touch of his on that football is pure class. You could give the guy a comfy chair for him to sit in the midfiled and he´d still be great.

Re: World Cup 2006

I think whole Germany goes bonkers and I LUV IT. It's insane what happens now in our streets...several 100.000 people in all big cities watching the Games in public viewing points making a hell of a Party together with the "opponents".

dude that is incredble..what a feeling it must be to have that much energy flowing on the streets everyday..simply amazing!! ..enjoy it T

I couldn't agree with you more. They seemed lazy and didn't look like they were even into it. Imagine if Ivory Coast had goal scorers on their team. Aregentina would have lost. Its like they had no emotion. It should have been 3 goals too. Either way, I will take the 3 points .

Re: World Cup 2006

morning.

God the Games are only on since 2 days and I probably drank more beer than in the last 2 months together. I am sure I am not the only Zombie tomorrow at work though lol. I witnessed the Game England vs. Paraguay live in the Stadium and was pretty dissapointed with what England showed their fans. Without the own goal from Paraguay, they would have had a very hard time beating them. So far, all big countries (including Germany) had a hard time against "smaller" countries and I hope it continues like this because that`s what makes Football interesting. Last night we had a hell of a party with fans from the Ivory coast in the middle of Frankfurt...drums drums drums. I met so many different people travelling 1000's of miles to see the Games..it?s insane. What Politics can't do speaking of uniting people...Football can.

Pics or STFU they say so....

Re: World Cup 2006

I´ve got my beer and my chips ready, the whole country is dressed in red and green, almost every window has a flag.

This game has big local significance : until 1975 Potugal was Angola´s colonizing country, that ended after a 12 year war for Angola´s independence. Today, there´s tens of thousands Angolan immigrants here. This will be Angola´s game of a lifetime and I hope no violence occurs. The only time these two teams played, 4 years ago, it was a battle...the game didn´t even reach the 90 minutes, due to the ammount of sent-off Angolan players.

Re: World Cup 2006

Re: World Cup 2006

Portugal and Angola.. was a fucking disaster. It's the World Cup folks, step up the game play.

Iran and Mexico, very nice.. Iran was hungry for it and I favored their win, good game none the less.

Re: World Cup 2006

portugal didnt go into that match a bit over confident did they?

angola played scrappy, but 1-0 is NOT thew result any one expected there.

the holland v SnM match was a bit boring too.. Robben is a fucking ball hog
he had a great match,but if he wasnt so greedy that could have been 3-0 easily
