I was rooting for you guys and hoping that Ghana would beat Germany so you'd advance too.

Why were Australia so god damn awful against Germany? They've shown they can play!

Great header from Cahill btw

 

[edgray]

so it seems we're facing Germany in the next round then? ... any predictions?

The world cup's turned out like the second world war. The French surrender early, the Americans leave it late and we get left to fight the Germans.

I'm not too worried about the Germans. I think a lot was made of their thumping of Australia, but I watched that game, and the reality was that Australia were poorer than Germany were good. Against Serbia and Ghana the matches could have gone either way, the difference between those 3 teams were minimal.

People forget that while a second round tie against the Germans may seem bad for us, for them, it must be terrible.

Woo hoo! Italy are out! Bottom of the table, even below New Zealand!:24::24::24:

 

[itsmeJonB]

its a shame how Italy played.
A lot of European teams have over actors when it comes to getting hurt. Thats something I cant really get my head around, why purposely come off as such a pussy?

To try and draw the foul.

This has been quite the World Cup... Italy doesn't advance, Spain might not advance, the United States wins their group. Spain, the number one ranked team in the world needs to beat Chile to avoid making a first round exit. Italy goes out in the first round for the first time since 1974.

I wonder how many are going to blame the ball :24:

whats the controversy about the ball? i heard that mentioned before too

 

[Springsteen]

The ball is one of the roundest and therefore lighest balls ever. With that it makes it really easy to curve when hit. It has looked obvious when players have hit it etc.

 

[Tuffdisc]

Bah, the Italians are out

 

[Tuffdisc]

Think I will watch the Netherlands game

 

[Zorak]

Think I will watch the Netherlands game

Watch the Japan - Denmark game!

Some great football going on, the Japanese are incredibly gifted players.
