Um, I'm not exchanging any players on my fantasy Fantasy Football team, is this the reason for my ridiculous performance? :dunce:

Also, I'm not making predictions anymore, the Gods of football just gone nuts, I didn't nail any game result until now. :irked:

I don't think so, I have changed plenty of players and I am 5 from bottom. :p

I think its just a case of grass appearing greener on the other side.
 
USA just won the world cup for the second time.

j/k.

Great game.
 
Slovenian problems is that they became too defensive. All players were on our half of the pitch.
 
I'm not sure if this should be posted here or the funny pic thread!

Great recovery by the USA team, too bad that last goal was invalidated by the referee. Are you less mad with me now, Dunc? :nervous:

Looking at the replay, the goal should have stood.

Yeh... and it was a Donovan assist too :sly:

Probably a fair result all things considered - but what about Dempsey's faceplant right at the end? :lol:

Anyway, time for the big one, chaps... enjoy the game!!

I'm going to the pub now, I may be gone some time...

You guys made us pay for our poor form in the 1st half, no doubt.

At least our players are tenacious, but god it'd be nice to see a full match of top effort and concentration from the USA side sometime this WC.
 
How could they possible loose with fans like these:








:sly:

Thanks for my 20 euros:)
 
The USA should have won against Slovenia. The Ref sucked hardcore. But the main blame goes on the US team. For some reason they keep conceding early and have to fight back late.
 
Just seen Graham "three-card trick" Poll saying that no matter how many times he watches the replay of the disallowed goal, and as much as he wants to side with the referee here, he can't actually see anything at all wrong with that goal, and that he could only see fouls on US players in the buildup to the kick.

I guess we'll have to wait for the referee's report after the game.
As Graham well knows, referees sometimes make high-profile mistakes. ;)
 
Turning attention to the next game, why does the English press care so much that Fabio releases his team quite late? It seems a lot of fuss about nothing.
 
Congratulations to the USA team. You really pulled through in the 2nd half.
:cheers:

Respect and :cheers: back at'cha.

Both sides have reason to be disappointed with the result. Oh well, such is life :).

Now I have no idea how I "should" root in this next match, so I'll just go with heart... c'mon England ;)
 
I really hope Algeria will be not stolen like USA.
And like arranged match Germany vs Austria in 19xx world cup.

Allez l'Algérie un bon match contre les Anglais.
Algéria 1 - 0 England

It was in Spain 1982. After Hrubesch scored at the begining of the match the teams stopped trying to attack as the result suited them both. Live broadcast was even stopped here in Portugal when nothing changed in the second half. Terrible stuff but I don't think teams wouldn't get away with it these days...

It will be interesting to see what happens when Uruguay play Mexico.
 
Wow, this world cup keeps getting better and better. Half the expected results are being turned on their heads! I think we could have several surprise teams in the second round.
