Hopefully this serves as a wake up call for them to get their feet back on the ground, gain humility and start working towards UEFA 2012.

Oh, and I saw Cannavaro shake hands, but that's to be expected of him.

Well I just don't believe you. This world cup is serving as a wake up call for a lot of teams/players as I see it. Too bad a lot of them wont get another chance.

Dutchland should win against Cameroon, but I think Denmark v Japan could go either way. I think Portugal might beat Brazil, but the next exciting game for me is Chile v Spain, whom I hope and think will end in Chile winning.

I meant how this should be taken into account in the preparations for the upcoming events by the coaching staff etc.

I'd say Netherlands will win Cameroon
Denmark v. Japan is hard to say, but I'd pick Japan
Portugal v. Brazil should be great, I hope Brazil will win this one
Spain should win Chile

It's a pity Africa's teams didn't fare any better.

Slovakia vs Italy was pretty entertaining actually. It's a shame that Italy didn't get further

RaNkeri · #81

God damn it goalie of Chile, god damn it

RaNkeri · #82

Haha, his name is Bravo, oh the irony

Spain scores again!.... And Torres performs propably the worst dive I've seen since Rivaldo, and gets a Chilean player sent out

EDIT

Spain won 2-1, luckily Chile still made it to the round of 16.

Too bad they'll face Brazil next

Colonel Flagg · #84

The road to the cup for the USA goes straight through Brazil.

EDIT - Assuming they can at least get by Ghana

RaNkeri · #85

But not until the semi-finals, and getting there would be pretty fucking amazing for USA.

Colonel Flagg · #86

They actually have a shot - they should be favored against Ghana, and while beating the Dutch would be a major upset, they can do it.

Believe.

RaNkeri · #87

The Dutch are a good team capable of upsets, but I don't think they can get past Brazil in quarter finals. However, facing Netherlands in semis would improve US's odds slightly.

Wait, what? That is a god damn disgrace. They need electronic umpires in this game so, so badly. He should have been red carded for such poor sportsmanship,

fucking ridiculous

Ghana 2 - 1 USA after extra time
entertaining game I say

Babs · #91

Very good game. America had some amazing breaks, just poor execution once down at the goal.

Colonel Flagg · #92

Yeah, they had too many chances not to score one more in OT.

Once again, they get burned early, then have to play catch up. No more miracles left in the bag.

Colonel Flagg · #93

Let's go England!

RaNkeri · #94

England vs. Germany is on

hopefully shit will be epic

RaNkeri · #95

Shit IS epic

2-1 for Germany after first half, although a goal was robbed from England. They seriously need a fucking instant replay.

Zhukov · #96

Damn you I wanted to say exactly what you just said.

Another great thing about this game is that the England fans chanting seem to be drowning out the damn horns. I think Rooney will get a late goal
