Messi finally comes out.[/quote]you were right, and i was wrong, although messi has had a great tournament, apart from scoring. Mexico is currently down 3-0. They got royally screwed on the first goal, which was about 2 miles offsides, but afterwards they've crumbled. i can't say i haven't enjoyed it a bit, though :)
OldSkool97 Posted June 28, 2010 Author Report Posted June 28, 2010 Netherlands beats Slovakia 2-1 today and Brazil is currently leading Chile 2-0 39 minutes into the game.
rip2506 Posted June 28, 2010 Report Posted June 28, 2010 Friday's Match between Brazil and Netherlands should be a good one.It will be interesting to see who can create a good look between both of those stingy defenses.Chile was in postion a few times today but good not get the ball thru.
OldSkool97 Posted June 29, 2010 Author Report Posted June 29, 2010 Im looking forward to Spain and Portugal tomorrow! Should be a close and interesting game. My pick is Portugal. For the morning game (Paraguay and Japan) my pick will be with Paraguay.
OldSkool97 Posted June 29, 2010 Author Report Posted June 29, 2010 Paraguay wins 5-3 on PK's over Japan. Good game.
OldSkool97 Posted June 30, 2010 Author Report Posted June 30, 2010 No games tomorrow. The next set of games come Friday.Brazil vs NetherlandsUruguay vs Ghana
rip2506 Posted June 30, 2010 Report Posted June 30, 2010 [quote name="Newbie" post="815269" timestamp="1277844070"]VIVA ESPANA![/quote]Spain looked GREAT today. They could connect 20-25 passes at will.I could watch another 4 weeks of World Cup it they would play a round robin of Spain, Brazil, Germany and the Netherlands! I forgot about Argentina!It's a shame Brazil or the Netherlands will be lost after friday and ghana or Uraguay will still be moving on. Not even close in quality of soccer.
sharkfutbol Posted June 30, 2010 Report Posted June 30, 2010 Ghana moving on. I am thinking Uruguay is a pretty good team. my long shot to win it all............. long shot or well not one of the big five ....... brazil, spain, argentina, netherlands, germany,... I have enjoyed watching the Germans game.
bullets13 Posted July 2, 2010 Report Posted July 2, 2010 The Netherlands have scored 2 second half goals to go up 2-1 on Brazil with 20 minutes left.
Bon_Mot Posted July 2, 2010 Report Posted July 2, 2010 For Dani Alves and the other Brazillians complaining about Robben's diving, check out the first 30 seconds of this link:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBdF2_rWrLo
OldSkool97 Posted July 2, 2010 Author Report Posted July 2, 2010 I am a little bumbed that Brazil lost today cause I had them picked to win it all. Netherlands is pretty good, got to give it to them. In the Ghana Uruguay game, Ghana leads 1-0 at the half. Ghana looks pretty good so far. Lets just see what happens in the second half.
westend1 Posted July 6, 2010 Report Posted July 6, 2010 I guess world cup is not so bad.http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/multimedia/photo_gallery/1007/soccer.world.cup.female.fans/content.1.html

bullets13 Posted July 10, 2010 Report Posted July 10, 2010 Uruguay and Germany are tied 2-2 pretty late in the game. it's been a pretty open game, and entertaining to watch. the 3rd place game usually is.
OldSkool97 Posted July 12, 2010 Author Report Posted July 12, 2010 Spain ended up winning it all 1-0 over the Netherlands. I didnt watch the game just got the score off of espn. My pick to win it all in 2014 is Germany. They did great this year and should return most of their team. But who knows? Still 4yrs away.
rschuldt Posted July 13, 2010 Report Posted July 13, 2010 Personally, I didn't want Spain to win for reasons that I don't feel right stating on here. So I would have rathered the Netherlands win against all odds.

If you have not seen or read this article it might surprise you. ;)
rschuldt Posted July 15, 2010 Report Posted July 15, 2010 I'm not really basing my comment off of skill or which team is better. My comment is basically based off of stereotype. I would rather not mention it though, for it might offend some people, but if need be I will and just bite my tongue when my karma takes a plunge (not that it isn't already bad enough). ;)

It has no relevance to the 2010 World Cup. He is having a camp next week. He can still teach us a thing or two about soccer. He just needs the areas support. ;D
rschuldt Posted July 15, 2010 Report Posted July 15, 2010 Oh, okay. I didn't realize that he resides in Beaumont. I thought that you wanted me to change my mind on who I wanted to win or something. Sorry. :-[
hj_hawk_60 Posted July 17, 2010 Report Posted July 17, 2010 http://www.planetworldcup.com/GUESTS/ruud20010525.htmlthat really was a great article. It's a shame that Jan's talents will never be fully recognized because of some silly power strife
