2013 Confederations Cup Thread

[9 to 5]

Damn.

[GoGo Yubari]

Oh Tahiti

[Katsuya]

Tahiti are having to score because Nigeria seriously don't look like they can half the time.

[GoGo Yubari]

Oh Tahiti :(

[Thrilla]

Spain are gonna score thirty passed this lot... And I hate to think how many they'll put passed Tahiti.

[King Ellis]

They really should have pre-qualifiers for these things. What's the point in these minnows getting torn apart?

[Thrilla]

They did, its called OFC Nations Cup.

[King Ellis]

That was a joke.

[GoGo Yubari]

So close to a brace for Tehau!

[Jimmy]

Well, they still did better than Newcastle did against Liverpool

[King Ellis]

Watching some of Nigeria's misses, absolutely shocking.

Where's the sweaty FIFA goals?

[ZJ Penn]

Nigeria had a 3 on 1 against Tahiti and didnt even get a shot away...

I mean, if an amateur United States beat England in 1950, why can't Tahiti beat Spain?

I'm going 1-0 Tahiti when Spain spend 89 minute 45 seconds passing the ball around, completing 94,000 passes during the match but not actually going anywhere.

Much bigger gulf in elite pros and amateurs now, it's insurmountable. Also the fact that Spain's starting XI's salary is probably greater than Tahiti's GDP.

[Gazz]

And back then, England were a long ball team, lacking in technique, discipline, tactical awareness, creativity, flair and fitness.

Hang on...

[Chris the Human]

Glad to see Tahiti get a goal (or two?) on the board. They were always going to get destroyed in this. New Zealand would not only have done better (obvious) but are actually in pretty damn good form of late. Could have beaten Nigeria.

Just get rid of the OFC already. Split Asia into West and East, merge Oceania into the east, and be done with it.

[Lineker]

If it weren't for all the politics around it, I'm sure that they already would have.

[Thrilla]

No games tonight?

[GoGo Yubari]

Nope.
