Brazilian referees..maybe they will allow a more physical style of play

bababui · 06-12-2006, 04:01 PM

Im suprised Gattuso is playing

rudel.dietrich · 06-12-2006, 04:02 PM

And I am back again.
A dissapointing day, the US looked like the team of the 1990 era. No offense at all and the defense made several critical errors.
Three and out for them.

Now its time to see if I can stay awake during this next match. Exhaustion has taken over.

The Italians are looking less gay than usual. Maybe because Di Livio and Del pierro arent on the pitch

Sdpm100 · 06-12-2006, 04:07 PM

African-style defending at its best there.

I think the game went in three stages for us (me?) - shock at the early goal, sadness when the Czechs scored just before half-time, and then ripping the players after the third.

Sdpm100 · 06-12-2006, 04:12 PM

Just how is the Ghana goalkeeper - well the Ghana goalkeeper? He looks so bad at all the set pieces.

magnet · 06-12-2006, 04:12 PM

Ghana goalkeeper got damn lucky that ball through his legs spun wide left.

bababui · 06-12-2006, 04:14 PM

Italy just dont have their usual quality at striker this WC. It will b e hard for them to win in the later rounds.

imation · 06-12-2006, 04:15 PM

All I know is that ESPN has to do a better job with their game casts on the comptuer.

I think an ape should have been able to finish that one through the keepers legs.

Marcelo Balboa is an idiot on the commentary.

On Bruce Arena prior to the USA thrashing: "The best coach is a coach that doesn't coach, he manages personalities."

Ball. Say hello to crossbar.

magnet · 06-12-2006, 04:26 PM

Jeebus, Italy has had so many chances to score.

It should be 3-0 Italy right now.

Ghana had a great chance there

Sdpm100 · 06-12-2006, 04:34 PM

If they can't score on this goalkeeper, Italy are in as much trouble in this group as the USA.
