Ivory Coast played a good game yesterday - too bad only won 3-0

I'm pretty new to football but that was an awesome game. Sooooo fucking close. Ghana moves on.

Very good effort by the USA team. For a country where other sports dominate I think it's totally awesome they made it this far.

Here it is... the big game!

England keep needlessly giving the ball away when there close to goal.

That ref needs to go to Specsavers, they have a 2 for 1 special.

You're on fire today dude

Stole that one from Sickipedia I must admit.


This game is a joke; England actually start plaing well when they get scared, and we get denied a goal because someone can't be bothered to check whether it was in.

To be fair, this is the best game of football I've seen all year, Premiership games included.

I don't watch premiership games tbh, can't be bothered to keep up with them.

But this is one of the better games I've seen this world cup.

Germany 4-1 England

So, in American terms, England are winning right?

I'm still confused as to why our game with Ghana went into extra time. I thought we defeated them 1-1 at the end of regulation.

Because 1-1 isn't a win...

He was being good humoured about it, he wasn't being serious

Oh right, haha. Sorry brother!

 

[Lord_Elixer]

Oh what can I say...

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA - pretty much sums it up...Now I get to enjoy a £30 cigar and a bottle of Le Froigs .... Poifect.

But in all seriousness, both teams played a good game, it just happened that England created alot of chances, but the Germans TOOK their chances well. Final score should have been 4 - 2 ... But hey, just gives more fuel to the English anger!

Germany v Argentina would be an awesome QF!

 

[lobee]

Oh right, haha. Sorry brother!

It's all good.

I consider you an honorary American for conceding so quickly.

 

[Sang-Drax]

Fucking amazing game by both Germany and England. Oh how I envy the midfielders of both squads...

 

[Marv Attaxx]

That was an awesome game by both teams
The referee sucked hard though, that was clearly a goal for England.
Maybe that unsettled them. Or gave them a boost with anger
Either way: great match!
I don't watch football/soccer beside the World Cup and my favourite match is always Germany vs England.

Can't hear my tv anymore 'cause everybody is partying...hard
