Belgium-Japan : 2-2 But what a goal by Marc Wilmots !!!! The USA are surprising me, not a top team but a whole lot better than in '94 and '98! :thumb: Anyone else following it?
who the hell cares about SOCCER? :flag: here in america, we like our hockey, our baseball, and our MOTORSPORTS!
Normally me neither, but I'm being sucked into this by a friend who plays soccer... 1 thing I've learned so far : soccer is a rougher sport than most think. It is originally a contact sport, you know. Broken legs and shit are pretty common. So are fights and supporter-hooliganism. Too bad I can't watch some decent rallies, and I missed the Monaco GP F1 because of my exams.
I played soccer for 6 years as a child, grew to hate it, still don't like it(to watch or play), but I do like the newest Fifa game for PS2. Me and my friend made an entire team of stoners that were from Jamaica:guypeace:
That makes 3 of us, at my student shack we play WorldCup '98 on an old N64 almost non-stop! While :smoker: 'ing offcourse!
yeah the usa has somehow managed to not suck ass this year.... man you guys couldnt play a complete half of a soccer game without passing out... strange though aint it.. american sports all have frequent breaks... soccer has ONE.. and there isnt enough time in it for a britney spears/nsync spectacular.... and play an actual real game of soccer and you will realize just how rough it is... damn oej your ass would get broken in half....
amen to that man we play 80minute games and im only 16 , most of the time i have to play the whole game. the conditioning is incredable and the actual game is alot rougher than everyone thinks....
Soccer is one of the toughest sports I ever played. It is rough and very very tiring. I was on my town's soccer team for 3 years but when I moved I just stoped playing.
wow the USA lost 3-1 but still got in because of S. Korea's win over Portugal. and Belgium now plays Brazil
if anyone saw the italy vs korea game, it was one of the most dramatic games ive ever seen.. man i was rooting for both teams to win (well italy really) .. killer game with a comeback for the ages... both teams played their hearts out.. great game... oh and korea won with a goal in the 2nd overtime
You mean Spain and Ireland. That game almost gave me a heart attack considering I'm Spanish. World cup is more exciting then any other sporting event IMO. Too bad it's not too popular in the U.S. I'm from Toronto and its huge here. The U.S. team has already made history and no one in the country really seems to give a shit. Thats too bad. I'm glad Italy is out though, they were way too cocky and underestimated the Koreans. Oh well, Spain is gonna take it all anyways.
ya man my bad. i meant ireland.dont know what i was thinking anyway the world cup is awesome and the usa is doing awesome too. i guess here we just like our baseball and football
