    That's more intelligent than anything Jamie Trecker's ever written.

    Very boring game. If Nigeria could shoot you'd be in trouble.

    its usually mixed like the nigeria men team ...

    some times ago i read an article about the fans in nigeria. if nigeria plays successfully muslims say "look, this is only because there are muslims", same says christian fans - of course there also some ppl without such ressentiments.

    i dont know much about the chemistry inside the team. officially all say "it plays no big role". i could imagine its a mixed situation. sometimes its not relevante, sometimes it get a bigger topic ...
    and not every "muslim" or "christian" player is personally interested in religion ...

    Damn. Chalupny right into the keeper's legs.

    Folks, the principle that Wee Willie Keeler expressed in the 1890s in baseball also applies to soccer in this century: "Hit it where they ain't."
