2 great games, Mexico were unlucky, they could of beaten a few other teams in the top 16 but hit a hot Argentina. Brazil Chile tonight should be a high quality game.

Warney · Jun 28, 2010

yeah i've been happy with Mexico, Javier Hernandez (Man U's new recruit!) had a great world cup. Giovanni Dos Santos had a very minimal impact in my opinion!

nice goal tevez sucked in lampard

Warney · Jun 28, 2010

that was just a poor ref call... they haven't been at best this world cup, and Tevez's First Goal, c'mon, one of the biggest offsides i've ever seen. The linesman must of been asleep because it was that was clear.

Futbol_Cards · Jun 28, 2010

Yeah the officiating in this WC has been pretty poor.

I was especially disappointed today with my team being affected by that terrible offside decision.

GiRDS- · Jun 28, 2010

ohwelll the two teams i was going for one

Warney · Jun 28, 2010

so guys... Up tonight we have Netherlands v Slovakia and Brazil v Chile

ace e · Jun 28, 2010

Will get up for the Brazil Win, Holland bore me to tears.

Warney · Jun 28, 2010

don't mind watching Holland actually.... Japan make a pretty interesting game though, they play tomorrow.

In other news, this time the EPL

1. Ballack to Leverkusen in Germany
2. Drogba denies his interest in leaving Chelsea
3. Drogba tries to convice Torres for a move to Chelsea
4. Luis Fabiano interested in United switch: Luis Fabiano wants Manchester United switch - Premier League, Football - The Independent
5. Vidic may leave United, wife reckons it's too cold!

Two club centered you might say!

Netherlands v Slovakia, the dutch should do well.

Brazil v Chile, good old Kaka is back definitely a game not to miss. South American style of soccer is always exciting to watch.

Haha ohh yeah go the Dutch! Its all in my blood so bloody hell I was excited when we slotted that goal from the corner (how good was that?)

And yes Sneijder is an exceptional player, but come on, he doesn't carry the team... Robben decapitated the Brazilllian defence tonight!

Well after watching the Uruguay/Ghana game, Harry Kewell and the Socceroos have EVERY reason to be pissed! Kewell got the ball kicked INTO his upper bicep, and gets sent of in what? The 25th minute or so? Yet Suarez actually reaches UP with BOTH hands (as does his team-mate also on the goal-line), in the final seconds of golden goal extra time, and SWATS away the ball, and he gets EXACTLY the same, and at that time IRELLIVANT, punishment as Kewell??? How about some DAMNED consistency, FIFA??? If Kewell was sent off for ball-to-bicep with a penalty to come, a BLATANT swipe at the ball like that with literally NO time left deserves a CRAP-LOAD more punishment!!!

Yeah the Kewell red card was harsh... but I don't know what else you would ask for with the Suarez situation? You can't award goals that didn't go in...

One less penalty shot if it goes to a shootout? But really they had there chance that guy should have nailed the shot in ET.

GiRDS- · Jul 4, 2010
