How's Peru ahead of Chile if we both got pummeled in the 2nd round and qualified to it with the same amount of pts.? Not to mention we've beaten you at every level the last year and a half or so. Metro
Group A Uruguay-2(for group stage,4 for 2nd round) Best team and only team in this group that is good and did not dominate like was thought. Forlan woke up too late and then were screwed out of the final Peru-2.5 lucky team to be in a easy group,beat Uruguay and got cocky then went down hill Venezuela-5 won its 1st game in 40 years and did what no one expected and that was come out on top Bolivia-6 unlucky but showed the most heart of any team and showed a good future Group B Brazil-4 Robhino+ 10, after the mexi game they just dominate but its basically just 1 player +10 Mexico-5 started off great but got cocky at the end, the paraguay game was a blowout because they had no goalie, and went to play against argentina like if they were in the same league Chile-3 got lucky Ecuador-2 they did bad like they normally do but have the last laugh by qualifing.... how they blew the Chile game is beyond me Group C Argentina-8 took this tournie seriously and is why they are dominating Paraguay-5 Prob the worst lucky of any team, lost both their goalies and the red card was injsut Colombia-Negative 0 undisciplined such a waste of their wonderful talents and even when they preform well they just give up like in the Argentina game. The US game made me cry they dominated the 1st half and should ahve scored at least 4 then after the PK miss they just gave up and tired to waste time. ANOTHER THING HOW DID WE MISS 2 OUT OF 2 PKS !!! USA-3 future looks good for them they just had a rude awakening that this isnt the concacaf. Played overly defensively but were very good just as soon as they got scored on they gave up.
all this Copa America proved is that Argentina and Brasil are in a league of their own. ALot of us thought some of our teams were catching up then reality hit. Brasil got to the final using subs and not even tring. Argentina just simply dominated everything. Hope alot of our teams wake up.
We all knew Argentina and Brazil are ahead of everyone . It's been like this for decades. Argentina and Brazil is what makes Conmebol....Conmebol.
Peru's tie was lucky. Bolivia played better. I think most people will agree with that (even your own coach and press admitted it). I am not saying Bolivia is better than Peru or not (although in recent history Bolivia does have a slightly better record than Peru in 1 on 1 matches...but I do not want to get into that at this time). I am saying Bolivia played better than Peru in this Copa. It doesnt matter if key players were sat or not; Bolivia also sat and played without key players. But that would only have affected how they COULDVE played, not how they actually played. And hoe they actually played; Bolivia played better. I agree, the 2-2 is deceiving. A score in favor for Bolivia would have reflected better what happened on the field.
'Till then ('till we actually play), we're still (at least) slightly higher than you. We made it to the 2nd round with the same amount of points and both our teams got pummeled in the 2nd round (though Peru deservedly with a bit more credit). Metro
ok I agree, until then ... one thing tho, suazo should have gone to another league, he is too good to be where he is headed. i don't understand that move at all
FIFA ranks arre out to rate the teams Mexico and Brazil the big winners: one came back to 1st the other one moved up 16 spots, to make the top 20 Also in the top 20, is Uruguay The rest?
the ranking is also based on the U-20 competition going on. but mexico lost to argentina in both tourneys and went up 16 places, wtf! http://www.fifa.com/worldfootball/ranking/lastranking/gender=m/fullranking.html and the biggest winner seemed to be bolivia. 24 place improvement...
can you guys update the thread!! to 2011 copa america 1/chile - invicto y frontal, 7 pts 2/ colombia - arco invicto y 7pts 3/ argentina y brazil, altibajos y estrellas, 5pts 5/ venezuela y uruguay.....Garra y lucha....4pts 7/ paraguay y Peru.......esperabamos mas.....2ps
does he get anything right lately? wtf? i think that yellow card was just too much for him, went over the edge...
1. Chile: Atrevido y frontal, se le nota la sincronizacion en ataque, pero con muchos lunares en defensa. 2. Uruguay: Tal vez no muy vistoso, pero hacen su trabajo. Si no hubieran desperdiciado tantos goles serian mejor rankeados. 3. Colombia: Gana un deslucido grupo, pero se ve solido en todas sus lineas. Falta concretar las ocasiones y aun se ven con miedo de liquidar a sus rivales. 4. Brasil: Probablemente el unico equipo en el mundo (tal vez Holanda) que tiene mas talento en la banca que en la titular. Aun no encuentra su funcionamiento ideal y Julio Cesar esta en un pesimo momento. 5. Venezuela: Grata sorpresa. Termina invicta y su remontada frente a Paraguay muestra una fortaleza mental hasta ahora desconocida en los patriotas. 6. Paraguay: Usualmente Paraguay es un equipo fuerte y canchero, pero ceder dos remontadas, una de ellas en tiempo de descuento ponen en duda su concentracion. 7. Argentina: Aunque termino invicta y goleando, mostro grandes fallas en defensa y un pesimo manejo tecnico. 8. Peru: No es un equipo facil de leer por la experiencia de su tecnico, pero su nomina es limitada por las lesiones y dependen demasiado de su arquero y de Guerrero para funcionar. 9. Ecuador: Un poco mejor de lo que muestran los resultados. 10. Bolivia: Perder con Costa Rica confirma su bajo nivel. Costa Rica y Mexico, no aplica el ranking...
estas loco - deja los 'berrinches' te va a reganar el Kesone ese es mi puntaje, de 1-10 title of the thread: RATE THE TEAMS..... ESPEREMOS QUE despues del domingo quede algun equipo con mas de 9 puntos de rendimiento.
He gave Peru 2 points That yellow card is covering his eyes, but not many colombians here are giving Peru much credit as we are their next opponent that could possibly knock them out of this Copa
Hay que entender que esta copa ha tenido un nivel mas bien bajo y es dificil leer a todos los equipos.. Aparte de Chile que arrincono a todos sus rivales y dejo escapar dos puntos contra Uruguay, el resto de los equipos ha sido mediocre.. Lo que separa al 2do del 8vo es minimo... Aunque rankee a Uruguay, Colombia y Brasil arriba, ninguno me convencio y no me arriesgaria a dar a ninguno como favorito en su llave.. Tal vez a Brasil no mas..
Re: Rate the teams!! de 1 a 10, personalmente especialmente: brazil - que en muchos torneos y sin pensar la categoria van de menos a mas!! la localia de argentina y sus nombres deben de meterlos en la pelea el ultimo juego de cada seleccion - en ronda de grps, mostro la verdadera intencion de cada equipo.
