Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, Post Match Thread [R]

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

no ... they just stopped playing

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

They couldn't possibly do that, right?

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

They simply quit after the second goal, the didnt defend the same way since then

amazing teamplay by Portugal, 7 goals by 6 different players

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

When this happens, there is only one explanation. NK are somewhat naive, and they lost their concentration on the game. Just to many errors, very weak mentally. Good for us, but i'm not happy for humilliating a country that suffers so much.

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

Why should they stop scoring? You don't know what IC could do to N Korea, they might score 8 on them and Portugal could lose 3-0 to Brasil or something, it's very very unlikely but you never know.

Besides, I wonder how many people would want N Korea to stop if it was the other way around? People would be wanting more.

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

lol. another joke

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

What an obscene match!

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

You can't blame them they needed a win. I bet if they had scored first they would have gone back to their bunker.

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

You prefer Chile to Spain? Considering how European teams have played, maybe you're right.

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

well, its not like Serbia and Arab left after beaten heavily by Argentina and Germany

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

well they'd get thrown out of fifa if they did, but who knows

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

They don't. If Portugal beats Brazil, Portugal goes to 7 points and Brazil stays with 6. GD has absolutely no bearing on who is first or second. Only points can sort Brazil and Portugal. There is no outcome where they both end with the same number of points.

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

actually yes ... the very same attack that is playing for spain already bounced of off brazil last line this year

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

Coming soon to DVD: "The DPRK Crazies"

Tiago: "How long have these defenders been playing statue?"

Ri Myong-Guk: "We're in trouble"

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

Umm because they're winning 6-0 already? What do you get by embarrasing a team like that when you are all but through? There are a few minutes left, just pass the ball back or something. At a certain point it just becomes pathetic.

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

lol, "bouncing off" is a good way of putting it. Well, lets see how Chile handles the Swiss bunker.

If Brasil eliminates Spain, we might see an all CONMEBOL quaterfinals.

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

Hum,.. he is referring to second place, not first place IF they were to lose to Brazil and CIV defeats NK. Then the first tie breaker is GD, then Goal Scored,... So goals score is still important!

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

It's not how you start, it's how you finish.. This 7-0 drubbing means nothing if you get knocked out straight away at R16.

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

one of the best football if not the best match on this wc was shown by North korea disciplined defense and brazil adjusting their game all the time in attempt to score. intelligent samba vs. intelligent heart.

this? well as boring as slovenia-algeria

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

Does this mean the North Koreans lose their ration cards?

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

No... but it means lifetime imprisonment for poor players [and coach Kim Jong Hoon]

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

Sorry,... as long as FIFA has tie breakers, then you need to always assume they will come into play. The world of sports teaches us that the improbable is probable.

 

Re: Match 30 - Portugal x Korea DPR, in game PBP thread.

Pathetic are comments like this. Accusing a team of some ethic that makes no sense is ridiculous. The purpose of the game is to score...and I don't know if you guys noticed but after 4 - 0 Portugal played at half gas.
North Korea was completley in shambles which contributed to the following 3 goals.
