I'll just ignore what happened in the 2002 Korea vs Spain match...
Hope Ecuador looses to England especially since they said "we're playing against a nation full of guinea-pig eaters"

The biggest surprise is that America scored a goal that the other team didn't have to knock in. Well, maybe not, but it was rather sad they had one shot on goal on two games.

The biggest suprise to me is that I dont actually get into it! I am a big soccer player, known in Maine, and since I dont have cable I dont normally wathc sports unless they are on 6 8 or 13, other than that I cant watch sports.

I dont have ESPN to look at updates either!

That is not possible be because England are facing Portugal next and either one of them is going out. Also England plays so horribly they always win in the ugliest ways hopefully Portugal will knock them out but unfortunatly, they kinda killed their own team due to the injuries and red cards against netherlands. Also Ghana is playing Brazil today and they will most likely lose.

Nobody saw yesterday's Italy vs Australia? You should all shoot yourselves if you didn't.

Best game I've ever seen in a while. There were lots of moments that you literally screamed "GOAL!" but the ball missed by a whisper, the goalie did the impossible or just something wierd.

Italy won 1-0 with a penalty kick in the very last second. Now that's closest game ever, a penalty kick awarded to you at the last second.


I'm going for Germany, everyone thought that they wouldn't go very far this time, but look now, they are the most dominating team on the field. Plus, I'm like 1/4 German tongue.gif.

I think that German actually might win this World Cup. I think that it will be Brazil against Germany in the finals and this time German will beat Brazil.

I did see the Italy Australia game, I was thinking that they were going to go to added time but then the penalty kick was awarded. The Ukraine Switzerland match was pretty boring and dull, even the comentators said it was. Penatly kicks to decide the winner...

Well I got pissed off when Poland lost with Ecuador 2:0 it was all our fault, mainly the coach's because he didnt take Tomasz Frankowski to our squad, the player that actualy fought us the way to the Soccer World Cup (because he said he had a dream about Poland winning the World Cup 2006 and he took the squad from his dream [i mean what a retard like wtf?]). I saw the conference and the entire Polish coaching squad is being replaced. I got really pissed off when we lost 1:0 to Germany they scored in 92nd minute, 1 minute before the game ended. One polish playered named Sobolewski got a red card and we had to play 10 vs 11 from that moment on we went all defence and lost but before he got the red card the ball possesion was 50%/50% and we were more on the offensive. After that game Artur Boruc (the polish goalie that saved Poland 8 times in that game) got a proposition from Arsenal London that is the 4th best soccer club in England, that means he's going to get paid like 5 million dollars per season... Poland won with Costa Rica 2:1 but the biggest suprise is that the two goals that we scored were shot by Bartosz Bosacki who plays on defence...

P.S. I also got suprised when Japan was winning with Brazil in the first half 1:0 and then in the second half Brazil won 4:1... Rofl... so it looks like for the first half of the game they were toying with them

P.S.2. Yeah wesmic is right, its the world's favorite sport, do you guys know that from the statistics it comes out that the final of FIFA World Cup 2002 watched 2 BILLION people thats 2/3 of the entire world's population!!!

P.S.3. I personaly think Argentina is going to win this World Cup.

No, 2 billion people is less than one third of the world's population. However, did you know FIFA has more member nations than the United Nations?

Vampire, my man, haven't heard from you in forever...

Anyways, the biggest surprise just happened the other day for me, when I saw Switserland lose after not allowing a goal the ENTIRE World Cup(they lost in a 0-0 game against Ukraine due to penalty kicks).

Germany and Italy won... Ukraine is out. Now only 6 good teams are left, so I dont care who wins.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by KaboomHahahein on 2006-06-30 at 20:23:18
The only team I want out is England. They don't even play good and all their wins are "ugly" wins, they're just lucky. Portugal got 2 of their good players on suspention and more people injured so there, England is lucky again.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by CaptainWill on 2006-07-01 at 10:00:59
You're right that England have played terribly and have been extremely lucky, but they're my team and I'm going to be supporting them against Portugal.

Oh, and I'm pleasantly surprised to see so many North Americans following the World Cup. I always thought that they saw it as a boring sport for sissies.

Don't judge the whole USA by the doings of few StarCraft players, they still think American Football is better and only a few percent actually are interested in the real futball

England is gone after loosing to penalty kicks with Portugal. smile.gif France somehow started to play good these 2 games and beat Brazil :/. I'm pretty sure Germany is taking the cup home.

I can't believe that Argentina and Brazil are out, those were the only teams I supported after Poland lost.
