What, did it last one minute, Little Round Man?

What is GOING ON? 2-0 to the United States?? You are F----n Kidding Me???

If the Americans win, there will be BLOOD in Rio & Sao Paolo.

Football >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> anything else

No, really.

Not QUITE, James. Football does NOT outrate Test Matches at the SCG, Usain Bolt in Beijing, Hicham El Gherrouj in Athens & L'Alpe D'Huez Tour stages.

But I will find a replay of the Spaniards-Jaapies match, sounds great.

3-2 to Brazil, great comeback to the samba kings, especially as they were playing against a superior USA

 

[Part_Timer]

dont you mean inferiour USA to egypt

 

[Sean]

from the quick watch of the game (IQ) it looked like USA scored on the counter and Brazil pretty much had most of the play.

 

[marinermick]

dont you mean inferiour USA to egypt

if by inferior you mean better results than egypt over the past three years, then yes

I feel an upset winner of the next world cup. Dont know what gives me this impression but the football world is very close at present and anyone can beat anyone just look at South Africa v Spain.
Holds well for Australia who beat world number 2 Holland last year.

I like cricket and all....... but for starters, MCG >>>>>> SCG.

I was in Beijing for Mr. Bolts sensational run - it was indeed one of the best non-football sporting things I have ever seen, but a couple of nights later I was watching Brazil/Argentina in the flesh.  Can you really hope to even compete with such a thing??

I sense a thread full of vibrant discussion coming on....  ;D

Bulldog - hehehe, gave me goosebumps that did.  The mere thought of Australia making a quarter final let alone the final LET ALONE winning the whole thing - wow.

Anything is possible in the world of football at the moment. Who would have thought Kaka and Ronaldo would be at Real Madrid.
Teams like France, Czech, Portugal  and  Mexico are all struggling to make the World Cup. Gabon could make the World Cup. My tip early out depending on pools etc Argentina v Spain for the World Cup but would not be suprised to see Paraguay, England, USA, Japan, Australia or Hungary do well.

Will be interesting to see if Maradona ever calls up Higuain!
What just coz he isnt your heir (Messi) or your son in law (Aguero) as well as playing for madrid
