OFFICIAL The DC United World Cup Discussion Thread [R]

PS: US commentators from MLS really suck.

Too bad for Australia. They could have used a point to help them to advance.

 

Andres Cantor calling Argentina - Iceland don't understand all he says but he's my favorite. 1-1 at 27 min.

 

That was a really entertaining match. The sports bar where I watched it wasn't overly crowded, but people were very much into the match and the place erupted when Ronaldo buried that free kick.

Also, what a result from Iceland this morning.

 

I am ashamed to say the number of times I've watched Messi miss from the spot, he must be crazy not to let someone reliable step up he cost Argentina 2 points. As far as the Messi v Cristiano Ronaldo bout, CR7 wins round 1 by a merciless ass kicking 3 goals to zero.
I still like Iceland unlike Messi they are the mouse that roars

 

Great game by Croatia

 

Messi pussy

 

I like pussy.

 

Unreal Mexico. I guess the prostitute party worked.

 

"On his father's side, he is of Italian and Spanish descent, the great-grandson of immigrants from the northcentral Adriatic Marche region of Italy and Catalonia, and on his mother's side, he has primarily Italian ancestry." He couldn't possibly be a pussy could he?

 

Props to Mexico well played match, nothing could be sweeter except 2 Concaf wins CR you played well but even St. Navas can't stop them all
Happy Fathers Day to all who carry the weight and responsibilities with pride

 

Jogo Bonito. That goal had curve for days.....

 

I don't have to like everybody who has italian descent - nor everybody who is italian either. I really don't like him nor the Argentinian team. I would support Argentina only if they were playing Brazil and - maybe - Spain.

 

Does this mean you won't eat Chef Boyardee either?

 

I can't believe Rafa is playing his fifth WC. The guy is a real scumbag, but it remains a great accomplishment.

 

And a bunch of other guys must be at their third WC, Ochoa perhaps at his 4th?

 

With Neymar playing, my hate for Brazil is deeper than ever before.

 

I think Neymar and Sergio Ramos are the players I can't stand the most these days. In the past, when he was still playing, the Palme d' Or was for the former Franch GK Barthez.

 

Big change in the 2014 World Cup semi-finalists. Netherlands didn't even qualify. And both Argentina and Germany looked flat. And although Brazil played a bit better, it wasn't enough.

 

Spain
Argentina
Germany
Brazil

no wins yet.

crazytime.

 

Germany just doesn't do well in Russia do they?

 

Hope Ben is watching Sweden v South Korea. It's what happens when fit (exceptionally so) Korean players run the legs off their opponents. The Swedes tried to play rough with their opponents and are getting the worst of the physical clashes. Not pretty to watch.

 

oooh. That S. Korea header in the 92nd minute. Man. I bet he and that guy from Morocco would like to trade places.

 

When does Chicago play? I heard they could win it all this year.

 

Looks like one of the Big Boy teams finally showed up to play today.

 

Which leads me to wonder what a 48 team tournament will look like.
