tsk tsk a bit angry, for reasons unknown.

1) It's Australia's first world cup, hence their first world cup game victory.

2) Ghana is in Western Africa.

What team are you supporting? I heard Canada have a good team this time around?

1) I know it was. But that doesnt take the point away it was from Japan.

2) I know where it actually is. The question was rhetorical. Sarcastic, if you will.

3) I am supporting England, having my brother-in-law be from there and all.

4) Making fun of Canada for noty having a good soccer team is like me making fun of you for not having a good hockey team. It just doesnt hit home the same.

It probably isn't Ljunberg, he's a midfielder. I'm guessing Ibrahimovic. :) He's the best of the three.

Oh, and Typh, Japan isn't that bad really. Neither is Ghana. And as Bobcat said, It's Australia's second time in the cup.

Me, I want the Netherlands to win. Only if I had some money to buy their shirts... Love that orange.. :D

...and I think Typh's joke was about how IKEA is a Swedish company and you usually have to put the furniture together yourself...which I did yesterday actually ( a cabinet).

I was referring to Larsson then. I also knew that there was a player on Sweden from Arsenal, because that's my dad's favorite British club team.

And thanks for clearing up Typhoid's joke, if that is infact what what he was referring to.


I also have another comment about the World Cup. I kind of hate how safe they play it. It's almost as if they are more worried about losing than they are about winning. It's probably because of all the **** that might go down when they return to their countries after losing. I wish that they would go out a little bit more and stop playing it SO safe.

Well obviously they arent bad if they're in the world cup.
But considering the other teams you have, Ghana is ****.
They are about 231 to 1, to win the world cup.


And you people dont know soccer fans well. I'm saying things to get on peoples nerves. Thats what soccer fans do to opposing fans. :confused:

Yes, yes, true, opposing sides do try to get on each other's nerves, but how are we on opposing sides? I'd only get mad if you were saying something about Turkey, and we're not even in the tournament :D <---That's a good topic to start :p

What about the three goals from the Czechs? There would've been even more if Koller hadn't been injured.. :)

I say Turkey should be in there more than the US. 4th place my ass.

I dont think it would have been more than 3, because someone would probably point a finger and say it's poor sportsmanship for running up the score. I've never seen a problem with that though. You're on the field to do your best at all times, for the full 90. So why would you let up because you're winning 9-1 or something?

And right now I'm waiting for the Brazil/Croatia game. I've always liked Croatia; For no other reason than their jerseys are frickin' awesome. But I think Brazil's going to feed them their own asses.


PS. Is it just me, or does Ronaldinho look like a lizard?

4th place?

I don't think anybody tells teams to stop scoring. In the end, when two teams have the same points, it's all down to goal difference. If your able to score 10, then you should.

I've been looking forward to the Brazil game as well, but my damn finals keep me from watching it.. Maybe the last 30 minutes or so..

USA is ranked 4th in the world. Fifa noticed this and is changing the ranking policy next year.

And I've had/heard of coaches saying, for sportsmanship reasons, not to runthe score up because it makes your team seem like a bunch of *******s.

And I think you should watch the second half, it's a good game, and the first is over in 10.

Watched the last 10 minutes of the first half, saw the goal (which was great, btw), and plan on watching the second half as well. But Brazil aren't that good from what I've seen..
