Sweden's defense has been monumental, but to beat England we have to start being better at finishing our chances. Our conversion rate has been...
Bummer - I was really rooting for you guys. :-( So many chances, but so many poor decisions around Brazil's penalty area. Dribbling when they...
The last Swedish golden generation was at the 2004 Euros, and the team now is the most promising since then. (2006 was the start of the decline,...
As a Swede, I love the (over) confidence on display here from Mexico fans. Keep it up, lots of future quote material. Yes we are lacking big...
I just don't get it... What is so difficult about letting the most in-form players get the most playing time? Why are so many coaches struggling...
We all know that refs protect superstars in a special way, but now they take it to the next level... A yellow for standing in the way. And Messi...
Why doesn't anyone TAKE A SHOT ON GOAL!?!??!?!??!? They are laying off the ball to each other (over and over and over) in the penalty box with 5...
Looks like Austria have been found out... They had a stunning period of form during the qualifying where they played far better than normal, but...
Brazil should have lost the first game (good goal disallowed), so you'll have to excuse me for not crying for Brazil. A painful way to be...
I guess it is even now... Brazil had a good goal against them disallowed earlier in the tournament, so this kind of evens it out.
Not unless they are blind. It looked good live, but replays showed it was handball.
Yes, Chile were quite unlucky. They had at least 4 good chances in the box there were wasted, either by miscommunication or just plain fumbling...
Go Japan! But can the ESPN commentators stop mumbling!?!?! Either be quiet or speak into the microphone properly!
Oops
England - Sweden friendly Nov 15 at Wembley FYI - According to the Swedish newspaper "Expressen", a friendly between England and Sweden has been...
Am I the only one surprised by the lack of urgency in Milan pushing for a winning goal in the last 15 minutes?
WTH did the midfield players spend the last MINUTE just side-passing each other instead of pushing forward????
Agreed 100%! PKs are a perfectly valid way to decide a game after 120 minutes. If you force players to play beyond 120 mins with fewer players...
[to the OP] How do you get over this? Is that a serious question? If you are 47 years, surely you have rooted for a sports team that lost a...
Ugh... our keeper shows her flaky side again.
Yeah whatever. :rolleyes: That last rant makes it pretty clear that no logic will have any effect on your argument. Enjoy the tinfoil hat!
Indeed... Look beyond your own national team(s). There are a LOT of countries who feel that there have been many suspect reffing calls against...
Sweden's starting lineup: (4-2-3-1) -------------- Isaksson --------------- Lustig - Majstorovic - Granqvist - Safari ------- Svensson -...
Wow! Especially after seeing how many chances Portugal missed after going up 4-3? Didn't I see a player (hugo?) try to backheel it into goal, only...
I certainly will never again root for Uruguay. If my team won like that, I'd feel ashamed. Anyone who approves of this kind of behavior should...
