South Africa 2010 (2 Viewers)

Sometimes i have a feeling i am the only one who understand football in this forum.
I say it was not a bad ball,and yesterday when it is start second round of group stage Uruguay strik ethree goals,and today it was 5 goals on th ematch between Argentina-South Korea.
And you say that players say it was not a good ball,well ask Higuain who strike three goals today if this is a bad ball,or Diego Forlan who strike two goals yesterday if thisis a bad ball,....
But off course a lot of others who didnt strike a goal it will say it is a bad goal but i will tell them that the ball is good and maybe they are bad players.
Why this ball is bad?
It is a normal ball,special design with a modern technology,made by the best factory of sport equipment in this Planet ADIDAS! made by Germans who make everything so quality like their cars (Mercedes,BMW,Porsche,Audi,...) it was not made in Burkina Faso but in Germany,hello!?
If you give a good craftman a tool he can also make a good product,no matter if this tool is produce by German or by Usa (like Adidas or Nike) but if he is skill he will make a produck he will just need to adjust a power,strenght,angle,....and make a product great,it is very simple.
But if he is not a good craftsman he will say that the tool is bad.
Will you believe him haha!?
You as a a buyer you do not care if the tool is bad you just wannt your product perfect so here i am saying the players was bad,confused,....in the first round but now is the second round and the game it is go better,with the same ball with the same players.
So who do not understand that have no idea what is the football.

Football is the strategy,there si not only on eway ho wto win,eachcountry have their own strategy and they try to use it.
I say Swiss have better strategy so they win,simply as that.
I will tyr to explain to you some of the countrys strategy and you will see no one not even one hav ethe same strategy,only the same goal TO BECOME WORLD CHAMPION!

-Italy- they play catenacio or bunker.Their strategy is to close all the path to their goal,they also wait that the oponent start to get nervous,that the oponent open himself and than Italy is goint to atack.After they get a goal it will also probably end by that 1:0 because it is almost immposible to score a goal.If they are down for one goal,they will use all dirty tricks in this world and try to ecualise which they usualy do.They have a lot of luck too,but it is what people say,LUCK FOLLOW THE BRAVE.They also play ugly football


-Germany-they play blietzkrieg,they are wermacht haha,they never surrender,they will play the same power if they are loosing 2:0 or winning 5:0,...they are fighters,they are attacking team,it is i their mentality,they can play 120 minutes in the full speed,power,...it is not end of the game for them once the judge blow in the whistle,than they will colapse on the field,but not before.No one like to play against German.It was the old people saying that football is the game when 32 teams play but Germans win(something like that)


-Brazil-the best team ever in teh history they win from 18 world cups 5 times.They play very beautyfull football,like a samba,they really enjoy playing football,i never like them but i give them full credit and respect,but all that will going to change because they start to play "european football" no more Samba for them,maybe they will still winning but they are not playing beautyfull so much they lost some of their shine


-Slovenija-they do not have their own tactics,they do not have a lot of players,stadioums,...or history but they are fighters,and friends among each other.They are "brothers in arms" Because Slovenia is small a lot of them know each other from the school,from the small leagues,.. .and they have their special brothershipp which is very immportant,a lot of them are from teh same town,go on holidays with their famillies,...true team spirit and with a very harddefence and one of the best goalkeeper in the whole Wolrd the one and only SAMIR HANDANOVIC and one of the best undiscovered attacker,respect only by us Slovenians a a few people from german town Koln where he play MILIVOJE NOVAKOVIC.


Well Slovenija can win against USA tommorow and will not be a surprise for anyone because:


-we have one of the best goalkeeper in the world
-so strong defence that even people at Rourkes drift will be proud of them:D
NO SURRENDOR!!!
-very fast and great wing players BIRSA and KIRM
-one of the best attacker in the world if he will get a ball from his team mates because sometimes good oponent cut him off MILIVOJE NOVAKOVIC- NOVA GOAL!!!!! (remmember that name!)

and off course we have ZLATAN LJUBIJANKIC,ZLATKO DEDIC,ROBERT KOREN,....all goood players.

But you must know how strong we are if in our first team position there is no place from a player RENE KRHIN who play for INTER,and he win three crown with INTER but he is good for INTER but not good enough for starting eleven.
And we also have NEJC PECNIK (one of my favourites!!) but he is a joker he came in the game last 20 minutes "when it is really bad for us" if everything is good he is not even in the game.So you americans just pray that NEJC PECNIK will not need to stand up from his bench because he is on eof the best players in the world.
He strike against Russins,he make a goal through GUS HIDDINk defense!!!


so now you must fear us hahah!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today futebol is what we have seen for the last week. This kind of style used forever by Italy that always play UNGLY and managed in the end to win the Cup. Like in 1982, when in the first round Italy do not won any game and in the end won the championship. I am Brazilian, and for us play beautiful is as important as win the game, we like dribbles we like fancy stuffs, but for 24 years we did play, the beautiful soccer ever saw, but never won in the end. The Brazilian team today had selected 23 players and among the 23 choose, 20 play in Europe. The same happen with Spain, they are good, they play fancy but was not able to put inside the goal and loose in the end, as simple as that, you have to score. So this is now SOCCER, the European style, ugly but efficient in the end. I think that the level will improve for the next matches and special for the next round.
Honestly the trumpets doesn’t really bother me, I even pump the volume and is louder when Brasil plays, and I do notice that the people who complain the most are those who don’t really understanding soccer than now decided to become an expert, so they need to understand every word from the commentator
 
Nigeria v Greece is turning into a good game,Nigeria were leading until they had a guy sent off for a stupid incident and now Greece are level.

This is unfortunately true. Brasil should have won in 1982 but the European style took over. Frankly, I like the Brasilian style; you should win with flair and entertain but that doesn't always pay dividends. I never cared for the Italian style of calcio but they have four cups so it's hard to argue.

They call IL MURO ITALIANO the Italian wall. Defensively on the of best defensive line and if they managed to score they will retreat to this wall and is almost impossible to get through. To beat that we have to call help of Pele, jarizinho, Tostao, Rivelino and company only this way we will get over it......:eek::D

Cheers to all.
 
Suddenly Greece v Nigeria is entertaining,2-1 to Greece and Nigeria are regretting the stupid action of their player who was sent off for raising his foot at another player.

Yeah, Greece baby, my coutrymen pull out the win.

Half Greek, half Italian, I've got two rooting interests in this tournament.

Actually, five; Greece, Italy, USA, England and Germany.

Greece and Italy for obvious reasons, USA as a I am American, England for my many friends in the Uk and Germany because they are a machine and I like the way they play, all out, not sitting on a 1-0 lead for 89 minutes, 59 seconds like others would.......

Good to see Greece win its first game at the world cup George,congratulations mate.I know Nigeria were down to ten but I still think Greece deserved it.As pointless sending offs go it has to be one of the worst,what was he thinking?!.

Along with my beloved England I'll also be shouting for the US,as I have family in Ariz,and good friends on this forum over there,and also for Italy as my Grandfather was Italian and I just love their national dish;).

Rob
 
I THINK the US plays at 9:30 am Eastern time. So, that 6:30 am Pacific. -- Al


thanks Al, I 'll be getting ready for work, but I'll record it, listening to me, I'm just a regular ol' soccer boy these days!!:)...Sammy
 
In 2002 France was eliminated without scored any, any, any goal, this year the pattern continue Les bleus ont mangé une volé des mexicain, ciua ciua ciua ciua les bleus see you on 4 years and hope you will not cheat on that time.

:D

Quite right,they don't deserve to be there at all.

Rob
 
They're completely devoid of ideas and made few serious attempts at goal, just volley into the box and hope for the best. I don't think Mexico was that great either, however. Even if Uruguay and Mexico play to a tie, I don't see either France or SA advancing. Replacing Domech is coming a little too late. Perhaps they'll be ready for Euro 2012.
 
tommorow Slovenija will win against USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


GO SLOVENIJA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


It will be 1:0 for Slovenija and the match will decide MILIVOJE NOVAKOVIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

we already start celebreting the win few days before,so.....If we lost than people will not go to work in saturday and burn some churches,shops,factorys,.....we take football very serious:D:D:D;)
 
:D

Its a rout now,4-1

Argentina looking good for this competion after this win.

Rob


Looking good indeed, ominous I'd say. Just look at the strikers they have available: HIGUAIN, AGUERO, TEVEZ, MILITO (wish my Portugal had one of them:(). And right next to them you have a certain Mr. MESSI... And the fact that no European team wins World Cups away from Europe...
ARGENTINA-BRASIL anyone?
E que tal Rodrigo, final Brasil-Argentina? Muita pancada?

Cheers,
Paulo

I will rather have this final 4 years from now in the Maracana Stadium, Rio de Janeiro, with 90 000 spectators and in the end Brasil wins 1 X 0 at 40 minutes at the second half....:eek:

Uma final com Argentina vai ter muitas mortes, com certeza.

Abraço and good luck for Portugal.
 
Argentina looked good four years ago and then fizzled so let's not go crazy yet.

Even if Uruguay and Mexico play to a tie, France would have to overcome a big goal differentia - same situation if either Uruguay or mexico lose. Very unlikely that France can make up a 4 or 5 goal differential.


Uruguay and Mexico both really want a win to avoid 2nd place in the group as that team will likely have to play Argentina. So if Uruguay and Mexico tie, Uruguay would take first place on goal differential.
