WORLD FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP 2010

[Matt]

USA have done no better than England... they have drawn both matches like us.

Yes and no. They both tied but the difference is that England is considered a contender for a top position while USA is just an average team with limited potential. USA is playing an okay game so far based on their skill level while England has been not doing too well.

But there is one more game and I'm sure England will be just fine.

 

[ParadiseES]

Very poor game coming from England tonight. They definitely didn't deserve more than a tie...
Anyway, I think England and USA will defeat Slovenia and Algeria and will qualify, but anything can happen as we saw today!

Disaster!!! It was a disaster! :x They played like bunch of goats. I wanted at the end Algeria to score. What I would say "Rezil belosvetski". I think that they couldn't play worse than the match against USA, but well there we go. Gerrard unfortunately was very weak. Rooney, he didn't even play. Lampard sucks a lot. I can't believe that Chelsea's star missed to score from that position in the first half. :?
The irony is that David James, England's goalkeeper, was the brightest spot in the English team. Congratulations to Algeria, they didn't even have to defend to earn a tie. That is because England's attack was very weak. I was about to break my glass at the end, because my nerves didn't hold. :?
England will go through, they have to defeat Slovenia with more than 2 goals to get that first spot. It really doesn't look like the team that crushed Croatia with 5-1, Belarus with 3-0, Egypt with 3-1, etc..

IHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA OMG - what a game!!!

We won finally - JUPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 1

And so sorry Slovenia, I believe that you can do that against England!!!
Algeria delighted me against England, amazing tactical game for Algeria!!! What's wrong with England??? Great team, amazing coach, but something is wrong!!!!

People are forgetting Algeria was crap too! It is just people expect more from England, but that does not mean that they played worse!!! :evil: :evil: :evil:

That is the reason why England should have played really well tonight. Algeria outplayed them. They were passing better, they were easily clearing the ball from their own half. If England played against Argentina or Netherlands today, I would have been happy with the result. England plays a low class team from Africa that with much luck is present on this World Cup. On top of that England is not playing in a group with Portugal and Cote D'Ivoire. These two games should have been two victories for England. There is no excuse in that. I guess it was alright to tie against USA and that they had a bad day, but two games in a row!!? I follow England's games a lot, from friendly games to qualifiers, and I know what they are capable of.
Algeria went to surprise and earn a tie and they got it. They weren't impressive, but England played really bad. As much as I don't want to admit that, I am saying it.
On the bright side there is one more game. England played with Slovenia last year and they won. They have to win with a big goal difference then, so they could secure the first spot and skip Germany in the 1/8-finals.

 

[AlekS]

They sucked. They weren't motivated, they simply didn't know what they were doing there
Also British tabloids will go furious tomorrow (as always) but it seems nobody cares in the English team.
Everyone here didn't expect such game. Our commentators obviously cheered for England but they were so disappointed... I like how one of them was screaming to British players "what the heck are you doing!? :shock: " it seems they put some cash on them

Yes. That means Slovenia's currently on top with 4 poitns, then USA & England with 2 & Algeria with 1. There's a high chance Slovenia will qualify. We need the US & Algeria to tie and it's ready. If Slovenia ties or wins over the England, it would be even better. But if Algeria wins (doubt it ), Slovenia needs to at least tie or they might end up 2nd together with Algeria and I don't know what happens then... Many scenarios... I guess, there's a pretty big chance Argenting will win the whole thing (based on the teams with 2 matches). Let me see tomorrow's game. I believe they'll be quite interesting. The Ghana, Serbia, Germany thing is quite weird, by the way. I guess Ghana will lose from Australia. So:

Ghana - Australia (0:1)
Netherlans - Japan (2:1)
Cameroon - Denmark (0:1)

 

[94ayd]

Going for something more unbelievable since most results til now have been quite surprising:

Germany - Serbia (3:1)
Slovenia - USA (2:2)
England - Algeria (2:0)

I guessed the outcome of Slovenia's match with the US. :shock:

Do you have to mention it? When I see this poor England I'm even more and ashamed of Croatian team. This England can't even win against Algeria. It's ALGERIA :shock: :shock: :shock: Can't believe this :roll: Now, I hope Slaven Bili? watched this game and saw how poor we are too. He said "England is the best team in the world" now I'm wondering what will be his new exuse for our bad play :twisted:

And my brother lost his money now he thinks I bring a bad luck :twisted:

 

[takeru]

Haha, sorry to be unsporting, but I'm LOVING these failures of the top teams xD UNDERDOGS FTW I find many football teams overrated and arrogant (my home team in particular, ahem) so this world cup is such a breath of fresh air Every match is so exciting

SO, let's hope (in vain) that this top-team-failure/underdog-victory can continue full steam ahead with tomorrow's first match ^^ Chances are as slim as ever, but hey, even if we lose with a North Korea-style fighting spirit, I'll be more than happy

 

[MyHeartIsYours]

Another of my very inaccurate predictions again

Netherlands 2-0 Japan
Ghana 1-1 Australia
Cameroon 0-1 Denmark

 

[aletem]

My predictions for tomorrow's games:
Netherlands - Japan 5:0
Ghana - Australia 2:0
Cameroon - Denmark 1:1

 

[No Name]

My predictions:

Denmark - Cameroon 0-6
Ghana - Australia 2-1
Japan - Netherlands 0-2

Seriously, I'll change my username to something kinky if we win against Cameroon tonight. This may be our last game at the WC, and considering how unlucky we have been so far I don't see any reason why we should win against Cameroon. Still crossing all I've got though, but I'm too nervous to hope for anything good.

^Denmark will qualify,just wait and see

Good to see you're so positive.

Unfortunately I was born pessimistic, so kinda can't help my lack of faith in my own team.
