    This happens to the US every World Cup. I almost expected it. Seriously. It's like you have to outplay the opponent and somehow the refs.

    I don't think England would want to end up in a spot where 3 teams may all have 5 points and goal differntial comes into play.

    2-2 bud. By the way you got totally robbed of a third goal in the dying minutes. Not just soccer robbed but really robbed!!!

    Let's face it, that was the worst disallowed goal since the Allies got robbed against the Germans in Victory.

    of course not. but if they win today they pretty much know they're advancing. they can play for a tie in their last game. that's not what I want as someone hoping the US advances (because then slovenia would have 5 points if they tie england).

    just saying...as US fans we gotta root for algeria this afternoon

    We can root all we want. I predict a 3 goal victory for England. No way Algeria wins.

    so let me get this straight...

    slovenian dude pulls bradley to the ground and that's a foul against...bradely??



    i think today's refs watched too much of the nba finals


    :roll:

    That sucked.
  • Nice comeback for the USA to keep them in the running. A Slovenia win would probably suit England better but it makes the group more interesting.

    I expect an England win by 2 or 3.

    first off the ref blew the damn call.. bullshat

    second, USA should not have even been in that situation. Play the first half like the second, stop screwing around.



    still pissed about the call though. Its funny, Germany vs Serbia that ref called EVERYTHING, I never saw so many players get cards in one game before.


    I am rooting for England in the next match but I do hope they lose :twisted:

    As for football, France shouldn't have qualified and our players as so full of shit they don't deserve to wear this jersey. End of story. I hope the next coach (Laurent Blanc) will be able to put together a team of players who can play as a ... team.

    It was a very poor showing from France, honeslty they didn't play as a team at all. Not sure what they issue was there..

    All I know, Henry is coming to NY..can't wait personaly

    Basically there is no team spirit, some players don't talk to others at all !!! It's crazy.
    Some players are more interested by themselves (Ribéry, Anelka).
    The coach has no tactic at all and keeps putting useless players on the field (Govou, Anelka).
    It's a complete mess.
    You should see all the comments in the french newpapers today. The main sport newspaper titled "Les Imposteurs" which is basically "Impostors". They couldn't find a better word.

    Good for NY that Henry is coming. He is getting old but I'm sure he'll bring his experience. And he loves USA ... that's why he chose to come to MLS.
