The Official 2010 World Cup Thread

lol

big surprise the italians managed to fall for a penalty kick.

lol, italians are disgusting.

Yeah, it looked soft, but then again, Smith didn't seem to protest and he had his jersey for more than a few seconds before letting him go...

I think the goal by New Zealand was perfectly fine, too. Good game...hopefully the kiwis can stay in it.

This is starting to remind me of the 2002 Italian side. They should just charter a flight with France and England, go the fuck home.

hahahaha, France refuse to train today...protesting the hotel food in South Africa. Unbelievable self-destruction, further underscoring the disservice to Republic of Ireland. Total disgrace.

About the worst thing New Zealand could have done. Means they get a fully motivated Italy side for 80 mins.

Cannavaro is just. fucking. dreadful. Please, put him in a rocking chair with a nice chianti, a classy whore, and a cigar. Let him be remembered for 2006, not his Geritol era.

French squad have gone on strike and refusing to train, LOL. Evra got into a fight with Domenechs assistant and they're all now sulking on the bus

Best place for the French stuff, statement out refusing to train because of Anelkas exclusion, Jesus

Italy better pull this off for Christs sake.

Great save for the New Zealand keeper.

I don't wanna talk about New Zealand playing well, because they're not. They're shit. It's Italy, however, who are even MORE shit. Please, please, let this stay a draw or let Italy concede a penalty.

Okay, Winston Reed just faked an injury inside the Italian box. Awful. Awful. Awful. Don't have to join Italy in the theatrics.

Nothing wrong with New Zealands performance, they are defending really well.

Yeah, they really have for the last 20 minutes. There is no justice in this if Italy scores a winner. New Zealand deserve the draw. Italy are terrible and embarrassing. Lippi and Capello, two of the worst managers in the tournament. The former for squad selection and both for tactics.

Balls off Italy

This has been a crazy world cup so far.

Italy Drew with Paraguay + New Zealand

England Drew with USA + Algeria

Spain played 1 lost 1

Germany lost to serbia

France Drew with Uraguay + lost to Mexico

wtf

The final is going to be Chile vs Japan at this rate

This should be good. But the way everythings gone so far, chances are itll be shit.

I hope it's good, no fucking idea why Gervinhos been dropped instead of Dindane

Gervinho was their best attacker in the last match. No idea, indeed...

How much longer will Brazil get away with playing this dull football? It doesn't help that Kaka's form is, in a word, missing.

In fact, only 30 seconds. lol.

1-0

man... the french is embarrassing!

This game is shit

Oh, now it's not

Actually no, Fabiano handled it twice

Worse than that, the ref said he handled it and just laughed =)

Is it me, or did fabiano play with hand twice scoring that second goal?

I like how Fabiano handled the ball not once but twice before scoring his second goal, then has a laugh with the referee about it. WTF

I don't know whether to be disgusted on behalf of the Ivorians or amused at how easily a shit referee can ruin a world cup.
