World Cup 2006

[gunnar hendershow]

Just got home from work to see the scores. I'm not terribly surprised at the U.S. result. The Australia result I am very surprised at. I knew Australia was being underrated by many, but I didn't think they were on the same level as any of the three teams (two of whom are also underrated) in their group. And I've caught the second half of Italy-Ghana. Haven't seen much, the match hasn't been too impressive this half.

LMAO that tackle after it was offside.

Am I the only one that thinks this has gotten a bit boring?

*whistle goes for offside*

*punches attacker in the face*

What? You have to punish the first offence.

[TheArsenal]

It was a really bad tackle. He's one of the luckiest players in the tournament.

Am I the only one that thinks this has gotten a bit boring?

Yes

Not offside, should have been a red for sure. The only problem I have with these small name teams like these are they really do cause too many injuries. It's a piss take that another player has just been lost.

Edit: Wait, he's back. Still, terrible challenge.

Wow, Italy got very lucky on the no-card.

[The Quasi Juice]

Asamoah, a dive...yay or nay?

[kimigoeswm]

BOOOOO

I don't like that referee

[gunnar hendershow]

This referee has been shit.

[IAceI]

Iaquenta lives.

ITS A MIRACLE!!

[Asuka's Gonna Kill You]

The referee has been good, he's let the game flow properly instead of stopping it every single minute like some do.

Iaquinta takes the piss, why didn't he just strike the ball with that chance? Thank god Del Piero is on his way, although I don't like seeing Toni go off.

IAQUINTTTTTTTTTAAAAA!!!

[John Stones' Paint Trophy]

This referee is shite.

I'm also for Italy vs. Brazil in the second round but a Czech/Brazil would be just as good.

[The Quasi Juice]

2-0, my prediction

[gunnar hendershow]

Beautiful goal.

[Lowerdeck]

And there the Ghanan goalie got burned for going too far out.

[TheArsenal]

Great calm finish.

It's all over.

And I win my double bet of Italy and Czech Republic.

[IAceI]

2-0, my prediction

[kimigoeswm]

No, plase not.

I hoped Ghana would turn that game into a draw or maybe a win

[TheArsenal]

Players seem to be picking up a lot of needless yellow cards in this World Cup.

[IAceI]

I think Del Piero better take a rest.
