Where did you take them from? I find at least 5.50 for brazil everywhere I look (6.50 in some). Most bookies put argentina as favorite and Spain still 2nd.

A sad soccer - uhhhh, sorry.... football - day. For Graf and me, for sure (Podolski has definitly had better days, 2-1 should have been a given....). Half time, US trailing 0-2..... but deserved, I sadly must admit. But the yellow card (it was Findley, I think) was so not ok..... the ball hit him in the face, I did not see any hand play.... (maybe I just didnt want to....)

ah well, all academic now, the US boys are not looking to good, a couple of good chances in the last 5 minutes of the first half, otherwise Slovenia simply playing better

Not what he gave it for

Originally it showed on the Television set as offsides. Then apparently it was called a foul.. There was no foul there either. Point remains the same. Should have been a Goal. U.S. gets 1 point instead of 3

Yeah agreed, was just saying

 

[fletchdad]

The definition of "Sucks"?

The 86th minute of the USA/Slovenia game.......

 

[Worak]

The funny thing was that every US player involved was held - yet the ref called a foul against the US - a shame.

Yeah, that was a terrible call. When you watch the replay you can see every American player with a Slovenian on their back, and one guy breaks free and scores a goal. Yet, I still never seen which American they called the foul on or what the foul even was for.

 

[Dorkus Malorkus]

the funny thing was that jozy dived for the free kick in the first place.

not that two wrongs make a right, but lol karma.

 

[ThunderPT]

Horrible call, but let's not forget another bad one right at the beginning of the match when Findley elbowed an opponent and didn't see a red card.


Awful refereeing, this guy needs to be sent home.

So, U.S.A. doesn't have a shot at advancing now?

Depends on how the other teams in their group play (ENGLAND-ALGERIA 0:0 atm)

 

[workinonit]

ENGLOLAND

I do not know what to say about that. Really, really don't

 

[jh1spartanfan]

If the US would have been given that goal they would have already moved on. That call was so terrible, if the US doesn't move on that is a trajedy.

 

[t1riel]

So, if England beats Sloenkia and United Staes beats Alergia next week, who advances?

I do but I'd get banned.

As an England supporter, I am always prepared to be underwhelmed.

England and US
