Let me see, we have a soccer youth program that is the envy of most the world. We have a U-17 team preparing day and night for this tournament, we even have a so called phenon by the hame of Freddy, how can we tie with El Salvador, of all teams. Excuse me? Those kids from El Salvador consider themselves lucky if they get regular meals during the week, they get excited over getting second hand soccer footware. How can we tie with them? And with the hype playing for us, I mean with Freddy playing for us, just how bad we are then? Conjuror
Considering the good shoes and plentiful meals they had growing up, I look for New Zealand to stomp Brazil this summer in the Confederations Cup.
Good thing the El Salvadorian team didn't eat before the game, or the U-17's would have been pounded 6-0. (Or if they'd been wearing cleats!)
So you expect a bunch of 17, 16, 15 year old's and a 13 year old to plow through the competition every night? Have you ever coached a youth league before?
Oh, so now it is an ADVANTAGE not having enough food, fields or sporting equipment. I see. Perhaps you guys should send the memo to our federation so we can save a few million dollars and also to Real, ManU and others idiots that are obviously wasting their money (according to you guys). Wow. Is this what Big Soccer posters are reduced to nowadays? Hyping a wannabe and fiding excuses for mediocre performances? Wait, that's what you have always have done. Sorry, my mistake. Conjuror
