Totte Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Trinidad and Tobago played amazingly... Are you kidding me? Did we watch the same game? T&T were lucky and nothing else. Usually, nothing good comes out of moving the defense down into the lap of your own goalie. This game, they caight a break and came away with 1 point. I'm not saying that my precious Sweden played a good game but they should have put the game away in the first half. Sweden would have won if they'd started Kim Källstrom instead of Anders Svensson. His ballhandling skills are amazing and his left foot would have given us a goal on one of the free kicks :wink: Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/21122-fifa-world-cup-2006-in-germany/page/3/#findComment-260122 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgbaseball Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Totte, you have to admit Trinidad played well. They were big underdogs, and Hislop had a couple of key saves down the stretch. Not bad for a team just happy to be there.

cabassol Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Totte, I'm sorry, but you have to admit that Sweden played very badly. 11 against 10 players for 45 minutes against Trinidad y tobago!!! One point that i agree with you: kim kallstrom should have started. I've watched the game with my sweds friends and they all agree with me. Totte the world cup is not over! HEJA SVERIGE! ALLEZ LA FRANCE! :D Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/21122-fifa-world-cup-2006-in-germany/page/3/#findComment-260139 Share on other sites More sharing options...
iansimcox Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Not really good games today. England vs. Paraguay was really bad, Tobago against Sweden was okay and Argentina has a good game with Cote D`Ivoire. I'll agree with you on the first two, but Argentina - Ivory Coast was awesome. If on the elephants had a good finisher that would have been a real high scoring, end to end game. England were shocking but I can't work out who it says more about. The fans who believe they'll win it, or the bookies who had them second favourite behind brazil.

Sac51 Posted June 12, 2006 Author Share Posted June 12, 2006 Game 1 for the US vs. Czech Republic will start soon... The line-ups: USA 8 G Keller 23 D Pope 22 D Onyewu 7 D Lewis 6 D Cherundolo 21 M Donovan 10 M Reyna 17 M Beasley 15 M Convey 4 M Mastroeni 20 F McBride Czech-Republic 1 T Cech 6 D Jankulovski 21 D Ujfalusi 22 D Rozehnal 2 D Grygera 10 M Rosický 8 M Poborský 20 M Plasil 11 M Nedved 4 M Galásek 9 F Koller Only one real forward for each team...let's see how the game goes on... EDIT: After 20 Minutes: 0-1 Koller scored on a header in the 5th minute; well deserved lead for the czechs so far! Halftime: 0-2 Rosicky scored on a nice shot from about 25 meters...Czech Striker Jan Koller left the game because of a pulled muscle.Lokvenc comes into the game to take his position.

ixcuincle Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Bah...USA down 3-0. I don't want to jump the gun , but this game is over. Great game with Japan and Australia a few hours ago. Japan was up 1-0 and then Australia goes crazy in 10 minutes to score 3 times. Wow... They need to broadcast these games on radio because I have absolutely no idea what is going on unless I'm in a Battlefield 1942 server asking what the score is to a bunch of Europeans :D Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/21122-fifa-world-cup-2006-in-germany/page/3/#findComment-261063 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jogar84 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 i cant believe i watched the US vs. Czech Rep. What a joke of a game for the U.S. Now it gets me to thinking how FLAWED the game of soccer really is. One team scores first, and the other team has NO CHANCE of winning. On the other hand, it also shows you how overrated the U.S. team is.

ixcuincle Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Now it gets me to thinking how FLAWED the game of soccer really is. One team scores first, and the other team has NO CHANCE of winning. 1-nil is too easy of a deficit to overcome...now 2-nil , that's something! In World Cup play , teams down 2-0 in the game are 0-74. :roll: Soccer is too low scoring for me , I'd rather watch ice soccer where they cut the number of players down to 5 for one team on the ice , have padded up goalies who make incredible saves , and fights , power plays , and other exciting stuff. But of course , since this is the time of year when the World Cup rolls around I am obligated to slightly follow the games :) Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/21122-fifa-world-cup-2006-in-germany/page/3/#findComment-261402 Share on other sites More sharing options...

kgbaseball Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 I'm so glad all these analysts worked up the US to be this terrific team. What a pitiful performance.

As for USA, don't give up on them just yet. Believe me, they'll make it to at LEAST the second round. But the Czechs are definitely a tough team.

You have their coach already bashing individual players. Landon Donovan is OVERRATED, and he just doesnt match up to the world class players in Europe. Believe, me i would love for the U.S. to win. But it aint gonna happen because this is not our sport. Americans shouldnt be arrogant in saying we can win the World Cup, because the fact is, we're just not good enough.
