2010 World Cup discussion

[GRT]

twitter totally blew up lol

[Mayareira]

Funny, if by any miracle the US wins the world cup...lol...

"We don't care, yet we are still the best at it."

ahah

[Gadritan]

I think its the other way around, USA and Germany.

Nah. We got first in the group, so we play the D group runner up, which is probably going to be either Ghana or Serbia.

Should end up with ENG-GER

[Kyo]

Yeah, consistent penetration in to boxes is always a good thing.

lol

[Shojin]

lol

So to clarify for people about who the U.S plays next, Groud D looks like this:

Ghana - 4 points (goal diff = 1)
Germany - 3 points (gd = 3)
Serbia - 3 points (gd = 0)
Australia - 0 points (gd = -4)

The matches today are:

Serbia vs Australia
Ghana vs Germany

Serbia will probably beat Australia, sending them through, meaning Germany must beat Ghana to get through.

[Shojin]

aussies have 1 point

if germany and ghana tie, and serb and aussies tie, then germans qualify second
if germany and ghana tie, and aussies beat serb, then I think germans will still qualify second

Let's face it, it's gonna be ENG v GER isn't it :X And it's going to penalties.. Incidentally Chris Waddle, Stuart Pearce, Gareth Southgate, Paul Ince, Darius Vassell and David Batty are all coming out of International retirement.

fucking lol

[Draggy]

I'm expecting Germany and Serbia to go through, but we shall see.

Talking about twitter this looked pretty cool. The ending makes me laugh though when that US goal came through http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/w...play/#/3099091

Of course xD nothing like ENG v GER penalties to bring on a heart attack

[Acturus]

but they were not getting good, consistent penetration into the box

*snicker*

In other news, my office is buzzing with this information. A dozen people or so were streaming the audio from FIFA. Awesome shit.

[Darlantan]

Grats USA!

Here's hoping Spain - Chile is a less heartbreaking game for me than this one was for you lol, I almost went crazy and I only support USA because of some friends. You deserved to be in and you are, good luck on next rounds!

[Not not Mattaru]

Yeah, consistent penetration in to boxes is always a good thing.

Just watch out for fouls committed in the box. Always bring your defense too.

EDIT: Also, don't be afraid to stick it in the back.

[Gadritan]

I'd love to see what the US could do with decent officiating.

[Boyiee]

Please please germany take 1st or 3rd in group. USA is fucked if germany is the runner up.

There's no pressure on the US anymore. They had a goal and achieved it. Exceeded it actually with taking first in the group for the first time in history. If you told me before the WC that the US would go undefeated and take first in the group I would have bitch slapped you then laughed.

Anything from here on out is just a bonus.
