That'd be either Larsson who plays for Barcelona, Ibrahimovic who plays for Juventus, or Allback who plays for FC Copenhagen....maybe Ljungberg from Arsenal.

...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).

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.

Ghana is the team that beat Czech republic 2-0.

Just thought I'd inform you. Ghana played very well, and they are very fast/skillful team.

That was an upset and you know it.
Frankly, I like Ghana. They're huge underdogs.
And you can tell that when they're on the field, they just LIKE playing soccer.

Welcome to the game of soccer, it's too unpredictible sometimes, and Ghana deserved the win. They had many other opportunities to score as well. Czech played well too I must admit toward the end

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..

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.

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

<---That's a good topic to start

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?

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..
