Official WORLD CUP Thread

I really wish refs would card and toss people for this laying on the field crap. I have always hated that junk.

 

there better be time added on, stupid ghanareans. dude was faking it all the way.

 

to answer the question coming... i have no clue if Howard could actually use his hands in opposing teams penalty box. i would assume no, but i can't remember any application of a rule toblock it.

 

well god damnit.

This is on BoB Bardley's shoulders. Horrible starting lineup.

 

he definetly cannot use his hands, almost looked like he was trying to, but he was loading up for a header.

Some of it is Bradley's shoulders, but the United States has no strikers. They had plenty of opportunities to score and couldn't put it in the net, but, Bradley did select the players. So maybe it is all on his shoulders.

 

Putting Clark and findley on instead of keeping the working lineup killed this time. Clark can not hold onto the ball. Once he made that bad turnover, we started playing some very bad long ball until Clark was subbed off.

 

Krypto & Lasalle. Thanks for helping this newbie gain a little more insight into the sport. :thumb:

 

you are very welcome. I hope you enjoyed watching the US and keep watching. I love soccer.

i have calmed down some. I am proud of the boys. They got to the 2nd round which is great. We just need a few more higher caliber players and we need to develop some yound blood. Qualifying for Brzil WC2014 starts in 2 years.

 

heh. I have my England jersey ready for tomorrow. I would love to see a Holland v Argentina final. Spain v Argentina semi would be a great match too.
