well, serbia is better than japan , that for sure

good luck against brazil btw, I really think you could get a
good result, cos australia are a good fighting team,and
brazil are a bit off

its difficult but its possible

Holland vs Ivory Coast was a great match!

so 1st half holland looked ok, second half they lost control
midfield, but Ivory coast couldn't capitalise. Wonder who'll
be Hollands challengers in the 8th finals...if they play
like the second half, they'll die

Yep, Holland didn't even build up an attack in de 2nd half..
most of the possession was lost due to a long ball
(something that doesn't fit their style). Even van der Sar
kicked the ball to the other side a few times.

It was a panicky played 2nd half, much enjoyable. I really
had the wind up all of the time.

well i'm really happy i was proved wrong about the
argentinians tonight, fantastic football.. i bet other teams
will be well wary as they look to be the serious faves all
of a sudden... no team has played like this since it all
started. i'm glad Messi came on, he's a natural.

it was the attitude i hated against the ivory coast, but
tonight the attitude was superb.. in fact i love the dutch
team, but they played rough against the ivory coast today...
maybe it's an ego thing i dunno.

Ghana plays how football should be played. Still playing
offensive while having the lead, no big ego's, all willing
to fight till the end.

Great match!

it was a shame that ivory coast got kicked so soon

ghana played well against italy, and now this... considering
their last match is against usa, they have good chnaces of
going through

zcechs must be carful now... lets see what italy does
tonight

most exciting group after the second match

great football today.

i'm personally a little disappointed with the results, but
the games were way exciting.
nice to see Zambrotta and Del Piero working that right flank
together, they both played pretty excellent i thought.
the OG was pretty lame. it seems like Italy has had trouble
filling that right back spot for years now... first Panucci
and now Zaccardo... shite really.

italy played like always... they seem not to care about
football itself... they care about other things... such as
the result... but football is not only a result

Off-side. And a very clear one. Check out Wiki. If
you know what off-side is, there is nothing hard in soccer
rules left for you to learn.

offside = being behind enemy lines

your country on one side, then the evemy country on the
other, and the offside individual, is behind the enemy,
taking out their communications and calling in airstrikes.

offside: (general situation)

being between the last defender and the goalkeeper in the
moment that someone from your team hits the ball to pass it
to you

there are some other situations, but this is like the
general basis.

also if a player from your team hits the ball, as a shot on
goal, and you are between the last defender and the
goalkeeper and you disturb the goalkeeper´s visibility or
movility. (this is, if you have influence in the result of
the game)

if the ball comes from a player from other team, it is not
offside, no matter what your position is

if you are already behind the goalkeeper, there must be two
defenders ahead of you, if there is none or just one (in the
moment of the pass) then its offside

if the pass doesnt go to the player who is offside, but goes
to a player that is in correct position, and then he scores,
that is not offside, cos you didnt make any influence in the
game... but if afterwards that other player passes the ball
to you, then its offside cos you are taking advantage of
your pevious illegal situation

there must be some other cases I dont remember now

Points: 31271 Status: Lurker



this is all valid for when it happens in the other team´s
half field
if it happened when you are still in your half field it is
not offside
