football: the beautiful game

[78]

shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit first BIG upset was fuckin great.

Round one goes to me bitches! hahaha

[zeen]

how the mighty have fallen.. haha.

[jack napier]

YEAHHHH, THIS IS HUUUUUGE

my boys ain't let in a goal in 490 minutes!!!

allez la suisse!!!

[ssheat]

Although Spain is/ will struggle, I think they'll get through. I see them easily defeating Honduras, and beating (because of their fluid attacking style and control of possession) Chile. Then its really a toss up between Chile and Switzerland, but the Swiss set themselves up pretty well with this win. Spain's just too talented a team to not figure out a way to get out of this group.

Also Uruguay was very good going forward today. Forlan's goal was great. France is lucky that they decided to not go forward when they played them - it might not have even been a draw if they had decided to go forward.

anyone take the swiss +1500?

[Guest I LOVE LFC]

Get in Mexico!

Execrable officiating. Klose sent off for nothing and Vidic stays on for a deliberate handball in the box. Didn't allow any sort of contact, typical Spanish referee.

[Johnni]

I had Klose at 12/1 as top goal scorer, hope he only misses 1 game.

[Magsåvningsreserven]

the ref was a dick, but in your face beckenbauer!

and slovenia a goal up, awesome - but if they win they're through

draw you fuckers

[haptronic]

right now i bet that USA are desperately hoping that SVN substitute their keeper with robert green in order to get their only goal scorer on the pitch.

[almostnice]

What A Fucking Stupid Referee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[chantheman]

should be 3-2

[chchchip]

[almostnice]
