South Africa are pretty good, last 20 minutes were great and all the goals were good. It's good when the hosts aren't terrible and SA could get to the knock out stages in the WC with a bit of luck.

 

[digitaldude]

well, at least South Africa proved they won`t be World cup cannon fodder, and can`t wait for USA vs Brazil match, GO BRAZIL!

 

[ibra87]

2-0 for US.... still waiting for Brazil's comeback. >.> come on

 

[Agrias]

WTF is happening. No really.

 

[Saintz0r]

I'd like to know. Seems like they entered the field thinking of purple cows flying over the rainbow...
Seriously, André Santos isn't worthy of playing for Brasil, same for G. Silva. Ramires is having a bad day and I can't find Kaka in the field...
Let's see what Dunga has in store for us for the second half

 

[Black Lagoon]

how could this happens??

 

[◆ T.D.A ◆]

WTF why did Brazil underestimate USA?

 

[Black Lagoon]

same as Spain

 

[predsfan]

It's just like the US to get my hopes up and then just implode in the second half. 4+ minutes left. I doubt they'll get a goal, but oh well. Good showing at least.

 

[ibra87]

See? told you

Same thing as the SA vs Spain match today, Alpha dog victory at the very end.

 

[◆ T.D.A ◆]

Great comeback. SHould have been 4-2 though USA did well, they shouldn't be underestimated in the future.

 

[Saintz0r]

Congrats to USA, I really didn't expect them to make me so worried xD
We totally deserved to win based on our second half! But on our second goal Robinho lost a chance that my grandpa wouldn't lose... he's been really bad lately, maybe some time on the bench would make him realize that.
On the other hand, Luis Fabiano is always scoring and Lucio has been awesome as usual.

Now, I'm going to a bar, we've a derby for the brazilian championship starting in ten minutes

Now we wait for the World Cup

I just downloaded a football game on my iPhone called RSoccer09, it was on sale for 99 cents but only for limited time. It has over 198 teams thanks to the Fifa sponsers and about 6 Cups and 6 league cups and multiplayr. Its sick, if u have an iPhone I highly recommend it. U could probably get it on other phones too, but Im not sure

 

[Lohnt]

Hmm..
I was happy Real was on the prowl and making Galacticos 2.0, but I'm suddenly overcome by horror.

They signed Benzema, and while I love to cheer when Real lose, I was happy for their transfers. But Benzema is a mistake, he belongs in a team like Man U or Barca, at Real he won't exist. I doubt his chemistry will even fit.

Also, what about Raul, Higuain, Van Nistelroy, they don't need a Benzema, they needed a heavy Villa/Forlan.
Sigh.. but now he's gone.
Last good transfer is Aguero, if he does leave Atletico. But even so, I've had a 180 for Real. I can't be support their star power anymore, it's too lame.

 

[Saintz0r]

Real should go for Lucio, he won't play for Bayern anymore and they definetely need a good defender Besides, they wouldn't have to spend lots of money to bring him.

 

[Mendes]

Yeah but I think Perez has a minimum amount of money to spend for each transfer (like 15M€ or something like that) unlike the other teams who have a maximum limit. He will probably buy a huge right back like Maicon and place S.Ramos as a center back.

 

[Black Lagoon]

the amounts paid are too exaggerated, 21 years old 35 million (Benzema)

 

[goldb]

Real sure aren't faffing around...seems Ribery wants to join the revolution as well, but Hoeness won't let him go unless it's an incredible offer.

Madrid need to think about offloading a few players aswell to make place for the others incoming; Van Nistelrooy will most likely leave and others too

 

[Black Lagoon]

Ribery would around 50 million

 

[goldb]

yeah I'm thinking that's the crazy amount Bayern are expecting too
