Neowin's Official World Cup 2006 Thread



Recommended Posts

gerrard is my favorite footballer. that was a beauty.

never been a big fan of beckham, but his touches on the ball are pretty amazing. so many nice balls served up, with no one able to finish. that cross to krouch was absolutely perfect.

good effort by trinidad.

100% agreed :yes:

It took them over 50odd minutes but when they woke up england were by far the better team. Although they sent too many people up which left them weak in defence.

Aaron Lennon had a batter match than Rooney imo, he stretched them on the wing which in turn helped grab the first goal. And what a goal by Gerrard. :woot:

FOOTBALL'S COMING HOME!!!!!!!!!!!

Ah great result! The points are all that matters. I agree, Lennon made a hell of a difference. Without a doubt was a turning point in the match when he came on. Rooney not so much but without a doubt he increased the moral and stuff. Both Gerrard and Crouch played crap but the goals they scored were crackers.

Whats up with all the England stuff.

They played terrible. Even Sweden played better against T&T.

We were wondering all the game why they didnt play like they did on the first goal all the game, Crouch is really tall and they should take real advantage of that.

England won't do good in the playoffs if they play like this.

Time to sweden can step it up against Paraguay, but unfortuneatly im very doubtful of that :/

time will tell....

englands performance was lacking. crouch missed excellent oppertunities in the beginning, and gerrard only made the shot because he had less pressure, look at his shots from outside in this match and previous imo. in the end england pulled it together and i hope they can step it up

Liverpool v West Ham. FA Cup final 2006. 91st minute. 35 yard volley. 3-2 down.

It may also be worth mentioning his goal against Olympiakos, which kept us in the Champions League. Without that we would never of won the competition.

Gerrard is one of the best players in the world. Second perhaps behind Ronaldinho.

    • Personally, I think these things are way over rated and way over priced, even at this price. I recently had Frontier Fiber installed with 2 of these devices and although they worked, I switched back to my own router and AP setup and get way better consistency on wireless speed than with Eeros. Wired speed seems to be more consistent also. Will be returning Eeros soon. I had told Frontier I didn't want them to begin with.
    • Yes, exactly what I have been thinking. Don't make the context menu simpler, make it smarter to learn what I actually use. And then, give me the ability to pin settings that I rarely use but need forget where they are.

    • Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June game showcase schedule is packed, and with the Sony event already behind us, it's time for the next major presentation to come in swinging. Later today, Geoff Keighley will be bringing the 2026 edition of Summer Game Fest live from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the Summer Game Fest showcase livestream will be kicking off at 2 PM PT | 5 PM ET | 10 PM BST later today, June 5. The jam-packed show is slated to run for about two hours, with platforms like YouTube (4K at 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, or X being available for catching it. Like in previous years, separate streams featuring American Sign Language and Descriptive Audio are available on YouTube as well. Keighley has only dropped a few teasers about what gaming fans can expect to see at the show. This includes a new look at Star Wars Zero Company from EA, a major announcement from Guild Wars developer ArenaNet, more Clutch gameplay, and some sort of Sega presence. As for fan expectations, there is hype building about a Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 reveal here, and we might see new details about announced games like Alien Isolation 2 as well. If you want even more games, keep in mind that right after the main kickoff event, the Day of the Devs showcase will begin its own festivities at 4 pm PT | 7 pm ET. This is focused entirely on upcoming indie games. Following this, the next major games showcase is slated to happen on June 7. Here, Microsoft is bringing the big guns with its Xbox Games Showcase and Gears of War E-Day Direct. Check out the full calendar for all of the June events over here.
