I just hope my Socceroos can pull something productive against Serbia today...
lol, right. Nah, it's bullshit the way they do it. No wonder so many here care less about it. Actually- maybe that's causing referee bias, "oh, no players will get death threats and no cars will get overturned and torched if the Americans don't advance".
The US was fucked by The ref again. It's pretty bad. Dempsy was not offsides. He was even or maybe half a foot behind. Still got 33 minutes left though. If they go out and if that goal would have put them through the game is going to look so corrupt to the casual American fan.
As it is most of the reports about the world cup in non sports specific media here is all about diving and acting hurt and all the negative sides of the sport. It's almost like they don't want soccer to catch on here. Not enough commercial time...
Elbows to the face, fouls not called, goals robbed, red cards not given- awesome impressive corruption. Hope all your favorite teams are liked by the refs, otherwise you get FIFA'd like that.
Fuck you FIFA for trying your best to cheat teams out of the tournament, and fuck Algeria for opening up a can of quit in the second half even though they needed to win to stay alive.
AMERICA! FUCK YEAH! Rock n roll? FUCK YEAH! the Internet? FUCK YEAH! big tits? FUCK YEAH!!!
Well deserved USA.
USA did it again, but by the skin of their teeth. Their luck won't hold out forever. I feel it is mostly luck, too, unfortunately.
I enjoyed the England game instead. No faking injuries, with a solid teamwork approach (finally!).
Don't let one game turn you off to the soccer excitement, Xuani.
Oh, gotta go. Germany play soon. Let's see if they can keep the energy going, or if I'm going to eat these words.
Yeah, England beat Slovakia yipeeee. Wonder who we will play this Sunday?
Woohoo! The US won their WC Group for the first time since 1930!

Tell me about CONCACEF, Felix.
I support scotland and celtic
Can't write them off just yet. That was a very close offside call on what could have been the second goal for Italy. I think they got it right though.
That was a really great finish to that game but too little too late from Italy.
