sanctified Veteran Posted June 11, 2006 Veteran Share Posted June 11, 2006 what a boring second half! i almosr felt asleep :p first half was awesoe though, but unfortunately iran lost :( Boring? Maybe because Iran`s strategy of keep the tie. But Mexico was well over them and creating opportunities. Do you think that the second mex goal was just luck? it was an error caused by pressure. Personally I found the second half more thrilling than the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L3thal Veteran Posted June 11, 2006 Veteran Share Posted June 11, 2006 I'd definitely recommend watching it on Univision (commentators are great). On a side note, Iran played pretty well in the first half but they lost it in the second half. Go Portugal! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sn00pie Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Mexico dominated the second half, but Iran played well. I didn't see Mexico's second goal but I hear it was the goalie's fault? Can't wait for Portugal's match! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leesmithg Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Argentina ripped IC apart. No they didn't you must have been watching another game as Ivory Coast were the better team, more dynamic and attacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tylerm Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 i wanna know why in the poll Czech Republic is listed as a surprise team?? they are ranked #2 in the world only behind Brazil. They have just as good of a chance as England, Brazil, or Italy. And I am by no means a Czech fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mohsin Naqi Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Iran got owned. They were terrible in the second half. A well deserved victory for the Mexicans :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Druw Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 IMO England won't win. They seem to take the lead, then sit back, like against Paraguay, and against Brazil in the quarters in 2002. They need to keep pressuring for that second goal, otherwise they will never win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martyn Posted June 11, 2006 Author Share Posted June 11, 2006 the american commentators, are TERRIBLE. Ha ha, funny you should say that, as ITV is sponsored by Budweiser and there is a skit of American commentators during the adverts :laugh: For this game I think think Portugal will dominate, I am going for 4-0 ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Druw Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Portugal are playing really well, 1-0. That first few seconds was amazing. Poor Angolan team, they must be pretty nervous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayrider Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Hey what channel is the Portugal vs. Angola game going to be on in the US?? ESPN 2 Ha ha, funny you should say that, as ITV is sponsored by Budweiser and there is a skit of American commentators during the adverts :laugh: The American comentators ARE horrible!! I think it was the Germany match vs Costa Rica; the announcer was comparing making World Cup comparisons to baseball and basketball. I'm also convinced they don't know much about Int'l soccer players. It seems like they just have a fact-sheet in front of them and use it once in a while when the time is right.

djpnuemo Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 yea, i thought there was going to be a goal in the first 15 seconds, i couldn't believe it. cristiano ronaldo is a big baby. you breathe on him, he falls over or complains. bitches he didn't get passed the ball.

L3thal Veteran Posted June 11, 2006 Veteran Share Posted June 11, 2006 WHOOO Go Portugal! :D In all seriousness, this game is pretty entertaining. Angola lost their nervousness 20 minutes in the game and now are attacking more often. I'm predicting a 3-0 final with two more goals in the second half.

PT 13 Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 I think Portugal did a very good job in the first 10 minutes and the last 10, but in the middle they let Angola play too much :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
