World Cup

Congrats to England!! That Beckham goal was awesome!!!


Yes, Germany will play Argentina on Friday, and I'm sure it's going to be tough. Argentina has a good team, and I'm not very confident that the Germans will reach the semi-final... But who knows, after all, they play much better than we all expected.

I'm not very confident that the Germans will reach the semi-final...

Look for the 'twelfth player' to get Germany a win.

--------------------------

I am down to one team-Germany....so I have to say Go Aussies and England.



The goal that sunk Mexico was beautiful.

Congrats to England!! That Beckham goal was awesome!!!

3 goals in 3 different world cups - impressive

GO ITALY!!!
Forza Azzurri!

Anyone watch the Portugal v Holland match last night? OMG! It's a new FIFA record for the most number of red and yellow cards in one match. It was 9 men against 9 men at the end! There was a lot of fighting and bad tackles, poor Cristiano Ronaldo left the pitch in tears due to an injury from a terrible tackle by Boularouz.

Stiiiiilll, perhaps if Portugal have lost some of their better players, perhaps England will stand a better chance of getting to the semis? Hmmm, I'm not too confident in them any more, a mere 1-0 against Ecuador hardly shows us off

[beeniesmom]

OMG Italy just won!
Unbelievable. Last minute goal.
My heart is racing.

[Kirsten]

Congrats, beeniesmom!! A penalty 10 seconds before the regular match was over - it couldn't be more dramatic!

I couldn't help but feeling sorry for Australia.



@Miss Z: I missed most of the Netherlands : Portugal match last night due to bad thunderstorms. tv tranmission was affected. But I heard about the 4 red cards. Unbeliavable!!

Look for the 'twelfth player' to get Germany a win.

@Richard: Would be nice if you were right!

I couldn't help but feeling sorry for Australia.

I feel sorry too for the AUstralians but still..... wow.

[cloverfdx]

The boys are on their way home unfortunatly . Can't help but think we got ripped off somehow . Oh well it's only a game.

[Kirsten]

Yep, it's sad!

BTW, I just read an article saying that David Beckham threw up during the last match against Ecuador. Being an emetophobic, I'm glad I've missed that particular scene on tv, but the article comes with a photo:

David Beckham throwing up

The article is in German, it says that Beckham couldn't stand the humidity and the heat in Stuttgart that day, and that he wasn't feeling well all day, but in the second half of the match, he got really nauseaus.

Well, at least he was able to make that beautiful goal before!

They took a photo of THAT? ooooooooo-k I actually understood most of that article. wow, the German must be coming on

The Ukraine - Switzerland match was so boring yesterday (no offence to anyone who may support those teams ) The Swiss penalties were really bad. I'm quite glad Ukraine got through as I've got a pound riding on them to win in the school sweep, LOL

Yep, unbelievable that someone took a photo of it! Well, congrats on your German, even though I guess the article wasn't such a pleasure to read!

BTW, one thing I don't understand: If he couldn't stand the heat, why was he playing in a shirt with long sleeves?

Kirsten

[Killearn Kitties]

Yep, unbelievable that someone took a photo of it!

Forgive me for being so disgusting, but given the hype that surrounds David Beckham, I'm only surprised that someone is not trying to sell it.

To sell what? The photo, or... ehm, well you know what!?

So he could wipe his mouth off.

I watched the replay of the game and he used the sleeves to wipe his mouth off...

What no one realizes is that the tradition is to trade your jersey with someone on the other team...
