oeoeoe Spainnnnnnnnnn
iker i love you! Sorry for the brave irish team, but only can pass one
If spain reach the final, it will be a great success, of course, but Brazil can begin to cry, Treetog

Canarinha vs Spain Bulls
The Football is Great

well, our next game will be with England whois playing very well in this cup, but...errr...the history of the games between us shows some kind of favoritism for Brazil, but let us not forget...we are talking about soccer and everything can happen.

in the main time...

êêêêlêlêôôôô....lêlêô.....lêlêô....BRAZIL!!!

Renato....sorry, I'll HAVE TO back England....the ONLY Football match of ANY kind that I have ever been to in 47 years was Arsenal vs Stoke City.....[1972]....and we all know where England's goalie comes from....

Ryan....you are very, very wrong....but back in the 60's and 70's.....when Footy was a PROPER blood-sport...then it was good...but now it's a bunch of wimps with the trial-by-vidio castrating the game.
As for rugby....to the Americans who might not know....think of Grid Iron...with guys the same size/strength/speed but without the prissy body armour...

Rugby is brute force...
Soccer is skill...
Grid Iron is helmet fashion...
Aussie Rules is for morons who can't make a round ball....

Ooops...'video'...

Speaking of rugby, played it once. Got hit in the stomach hard, was completely out of breath for fifteen minutes and swore never to do that again. It's a sport of sadists!

Italy is out.....Sth Korea is in.....

*wide eyed look*

Unbelievable...

On the balance of play, totally justified. Italy scored then sat back!
Congratulations South Korea

Wow... Italy is out! Amazing!
I thought they'd go in the finals against Brazil. Piew!
Now, who is it going to be then? the US? Who knows now? This is the weirdest World Cup I have ever seen!

Italy Out
Korea Spain or Spain Korea?
ja ja ja ja ja
The next chapter on Saturday morning

There is no more favorites on a worl cup, Korea, Turkey and Senecal between the 8 best teams ,shows us that good. Many of the called "favorites", and this includes Brazil, think that they would be the best for ever.

Those new teams plays really well, being very well organized, giving their blood for their countries and for sure deservers to continue in the championchip.

As for me, I think Brazil is being lucky to still be on the competition ( for 2 times we were helped by the judge)

I strongly believe that this cup can be won by a non traditional soccer country and I don´t see nothing wrong with that.

in time...

but my heart is with my loved Brazil...so...

êêêêlêlêôôôô....lêlêô.....lêlêô....BRAZIL!!!



/me plays his horn even louther

Ciao Italia

que exagerado eres, encemo: Spain Bulls? olé y pq no Spain pata negra pigs? a ver si ganamos a korea, con permiso de los arbitros

Bueno,pues vale.Los pata negra de España van a ir a por todas y si los arbitros son justos y los Coreanos dejan de tomar sopa de Tortuga adulterada ja ja ja ja ganaremos.Hablando en serio espero que nuestro equipo de la talla y saque a relucir la furia Española y asi poder estar mas cerca de esa ansiada final frente a la seleccion Canarinha
GOOOOOOO SPAIN

yeah i have to agree, the footy now is nothing like what it was in the 70's (ahhh, who could forget the grand finals from 1970 and 79? i couldn't and i wasn't even born then )

but soccer can get very boring.

you can watch a whole game with no goals scored. the lowest score i've ever seen in a footy game was last year, carlton vs west coast, and the eagles kicked 4.3 - 27 or something like that

Soccer? what's this name? say...
Futbol
Football
Futebol
Corea wins in 8th finals, and 4 million coreans goes to street to celebrate...
Any 4 years all Brasil are pending of their seleçao
Maybe in USA tha major sports are others, but FUTBOL (or SOCCER if you like this name) are the major sport around the world
And Spain is the best team on FIFA's final phase(yes i know, never win , but is my country)
And FC Barcelona is the best team of the Universe (an other countries of course) with permission of Real Madrid, another spanish team.
GO SPAIN, GO BRAZIL, GO home ITALIA, and GO CARLITUS

Is the US still in it?

Yup Dave, US is still in, but the great majority of the americans (around 95%) doesn´t even know about the world cup.

That's an astonishing fact, Renato.
Here in England everyone is football crazy at the moment. Houses and cars are covered in flags and it's a wonderful atmosphere.

FIFA World Cup is even less popular in Canada.
Most people just read about it in the papers but nobody watches any game (exepts in the Italian neighbourhoods, ). At least the USA have a half decent team, but Canada only once qualified for the World Cup, but they got eliminated after the first round.

Maybe as I suggested before, if there was a version of soccer on ice, we 'd get more into it.

GOOOOOOOO CARLITUS
Football is the best sport in the world and the UNIVERSE
Tomorrow Great Match Brazil vs England
GO SPAIN, GO BRAZIL and GO ENCEMO

Well.....the World Cup just hit an all-time low.
Italians everywhere should be ashamed of themselves, their country, and their team and its management.

It appears that the Sth Korean who scored the winning goal against the Italians actually plays for an Italian team.......only....not any more......he was just sacked.

Obviously, the Italians wanted him to throw the game or something and let them win. Stupid silly prats....he's better-off without such a bunch of childish prima-donnas.

God, I'm disgusted...... [and I thought I'd never have a reason to use that icon]...

The Italian Mafia has a name for that...it is called "vendeta"!

Yes, Paul, this is really astonishing.
