Anyone watching Argentina vs Bosnia and Herzegovina? I think the result (and the group, lol) is pretty much set.

Also, I don't see anything wrong with the goal line technology, while it doesn't interfere with the game itself.

Disappointing first half from Argentina. They were really sluggish.

Dear Iran and Nigeria football teams,

You ruined the World Cup.

Fuck you, you monumental cunts.

PEPE!

Pepe makes everything better.

GHAAAAANA won in my dreams.

dat first goal by dempsey tho, what was it, the 5th fastest goal in wc history?

 

[Necron]

IIRC, the fastest goal is 9 seconds (just some trivia )

Yup, so glad I watched Game of Thrones final instead of that match, dunno why you even bothered really. Don't give a shit for any of those countries, would've watched Ghana-USA though.

The first touch of him is beautiful, immediately gives him a lot of pace and makes the defender wary, very well done, nice goal.

Tonight FINALLY the Belgium game, the wait has been so so so long, 6 months since the qualification, and now we're finally here. Hoping for a win, Algeria seems like a tricky team but we should be able to handle this

 

[Satangel]

Well that sucked....
The disappointment after the first half can't be put in words. The hype in Belgium is gigantic, absolutely huge, and it would've been a disaster to see us lose against Algeria.
Glad we pulled through though, very glad. Quality goals too, and well deserved, we were the team wanting to win.

Get in! Massive result, close to the next round.
Ochoa was unreal too.

Ochoa was frankly awesome, one of those 'no bastard's getting past me tonight' games for him.
Brazil just not good enough though - not trying to put Mexico's performance down as you played great, but the hosts won't be winning against the likes of Germany if they play like that.....

 

[Satangel]

Really disappointed Australia didn't win vs Holland, such a close game and the Ozzies deserved more. Excellent match to watch, both sides had a lot of chances, another great match!

 

[Necron]

Can we please stop with these referees? He has only blown the whistle for Spain

 

[kristianity77]

Taxi for Spain!

Byebye Spain

 

[emigre]

Spain were shit. The way they were playing, they couldn't score in a brothel.

Reminded me of our last world cup. Needed a goal.....bring on Emile Heskey!

Hah... only Torres is even worse....
Adios Espana! Way they played today I reckon Australia will beat em, without Cahill (by the way: Wot a strike that was!)

Spain were simply shit. Lack of pace. The line up was bad to begin with. Xabi Alonso hardly had anything going in the first game and they still started with him
