The Official World Cup 2010 Thread

Well shit. Still Mexico's got some major work to do to get through.

[No Contest]

Good game Mexico should have won it though. South Africa has good midfield play, the goalie should have really got that one timer from Marquez.

That Juarez was absolutely awful. The amount of times I shouted at the tv after he gave away ANOTHER pass.

As for Blanco - bloody hell, hang up your boots son.

Those bloody horns totally dilute the crowd whooping/gasping/cheering/shouting.

Mexico missed the boat the first half, SA relaxed a bit the second.

Uruguay/Paul McClosky by KO/TKO/DQ has to be the next bet

France game? Yeh it was. France are gutless!

[superheavyrhun]

I think France v Uruguay had more of the first game of the World Cup about it than SA v Mexico. As everyone knows the first game of the World Cup is usually a big letdown, and the end to end stuff of SA v Mexico was very entertaining stuff. France v Uruguay was bloody terrible though, all the bad things you've heard about France are true.

Don't you worry boys, after the dull France game, England will liven up the tournament again in a few hours.

Yup....by getting steamrolled by the US

SCREW BRITANNIA,
THE US SHOWS THE MASSES,
AND WHEN WE GET YOU ON THE PITCH WE'RE GONNA KICK YOUR BRITISH ASSES!
(to the tune of Rule Britannia)
USA, USA, USA!!!

England are going to whip the USA like a naughty step child. Just a shame I have to stay up until 3:30 in the morning to see it!

12:20am now and still another 3 hours to go. I watched the Korea game which wasn't bad, the Koreans get a bit hyper about it though, you could hear screaming from the streets everytime a goal was scored. I might do the same, but a bit later than that! Nah, I won't be that mean. I will sit and gloat in utter silence. I am a man of peace.

Nigeria are maddening to watch.

Maradona's midget sideline reactions are priceless though. I have never seen a person look more awkward in a suit.

Milito will come in and score almost immediately.

[Gandalf]

Maradona looks like he has lost a bit of weight. For some reason every game in this world cup sounds like there are swarms of angry bees buzzing away rather than people shouting and chanting. It's weird and must be something to do with the Korean coverage, it doesn't sound like I am hearing a live audience. Yesterday I thought it might just be some South African chanting, but it's the same every game. Very off putting.

I'm going to be a fucking wreck tomorrow.
