I couldnt see the match cos It was too soon in the morning, (besides it was on pay per view) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Pay per view?.....that sucks!!! Watching world cup for free should be every humans right!! Its all about the $$$$ Hockey world cup i showed on channels most people don't have here in sweden. That sucks to. |

well sido, you are right, pay per view (ppv) is the shit... I couldnt watch most of the games on real time... I saw them 12 hours later on public tv. I just see those with spain and some other few matches that our tv thinks are good for the audience... |

now lets all think about this: senegal is already amongthe best 8 teams of the world cup and now they will play against japan or turkey, which in my opinion are not as good as the africans... imagine what would be to see senegal in semifinals against brazil or england... this is a crazy world cup, and i hope spain can pass |

Sweden are so strong, I expected them to win but Senegal could go all the way now Svensson hit the post, that was agonising... it was just not Swedens day Franz Beckenbauer : "this world cup is being de-valued by the elimination of many of the great nations" I couldn't DISagree more, Its great !!! |

nacmat> Did U see Real Madrid v Leeds United last season ? I think todays game will be similar. Ireland will defend deep, look for the fullbacks (Finnan and Harte/Kelly) to overlap and provide crosses.. and expect Duff to run at the defence. Spain will play like Madrid did in that game, slow and steady build-ups across the middle, and then look for short slide-rule passes through gaps in the defence to catch the Irish on their heels. I predict 1-1 (Spain scoring first) and then Raul to punch the ball into the net (like against Leeds) for the Golden Goal. :) |

maybe a golden goal is too much for my heart...so if I dont post after an hour since the match ends...you will know what happened to me |
||||||||
|

I predict 1-1 for Spain - Ireland and then Ireland winning a golden goal. |
||||||||

|
|
hey Phatbert, I wish you luck for Ireland, in case you win I will support your team in the next draws... but you must understand, now I just want Spain to beat Ireland no matter the way we do it. go spain go!!! |

casillas (gk) (real madrid) puyol (barça) hierro (real madrid) helguera (real madrid) juanfran (celta) de pedro (real sociedad) baraja (valencia) luis enrique (barça) valeron (deportivo coruña) morientes (real madrid) raul (real madrid) |

1-0 spanish players are being too lazy since they scored the goal, and I am afraid, cos irish never give up the fight... we need to run alittle bit more...we need to give more passion to it...we are to slow, and ireland was losing 1-0 against camerun and germany and at the end they managed to equalize the result. |

haha this guy-anders frisk always makes me laugh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if this is maximum by spain team they might have problems against better teams always when i watch spanish team playing, i get the feeling there is not player that stands out but if they keep playing like they did i the first half, im sure they are about to beat ireland |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ireland missed a penalty - oh dear - that won't do their confidence much good |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
holy fuck! ireland got and scored a penalty in the 89th minute!!!!!!!!!! this could destroy the spanish confidence! nacmat, you musta fallen outta your chair when that happened!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im sorry for you nacmat but i must say that ireland equalised deservedly i hate to see teams that clearly possess more quality to start putting all their effort on defense and its a paradox with most of the european teams i would like to see brazil-how will they react if they score first as far as penalty is concerned-hierro knew he made a mistake but both teams still have their chance |

Spain> very silky and incisive early on, but obvious negative tendecies returned when they came under pressure. Very ragged for the last half hour and jaded in extra time. They will know they have been in a match .... one they could easily have lost. Ireland > Looked inferior for the first half, but once again gave everything in the second, and were worth their equaliser. Not just spirited, they out-played Spain for long periods after the first 60 minutes. 4 misses in 6 penalty kicks is just not good enough. It's a shame that it has to end that way, but Spain go through. Spain will move on and maybe be stronger in the next round . They are the lucky ones today !!! I'm happy for you nacmat :D) |

I am sorry Phatbert 000, I am sorry because ireland deserved to win. Irish players, after losing in the penalties, went to congratulate the spanish team, for me they acted as heros... you must be proud of your team, I am not of mine...I just hope we do better next time...cos today the irish tried harder and really played a better football. tolstoyed you said this: "i hate to see teams that clearly possess more quality to start putting all their effort on defense " I totally agree with that, I was too sad to see my team acting like that... but understand me, I am happy anyway cos we passed...I just hope they never do this again. Phabert: again, it was a great match by ireland, I am happy for spain, but you showed a great spirit, you played a great match and your players are really nice people... I now admire that team. |

congrats to all spanish! maybe they didn't deserve this particular victory all that much, but i'm convinced they can get further in this world cup than ireland would have got. and that morientes goal should have counted |

what is your avatar? |

You should be convinced of nothing in this world cup. I'm tempted to jump on Belgium @ 8-1 to beat Brazil in 90 minutes. In this tournament, you never know. Netlon, you're still a bit bitter about the Irish dumping out Holland aren't you ? ;-D |
||||||||
|
|

|

now I understand how ireland qualified for this world cup, leaving netherlands at home, and how they got to 1/8 finals leaving camerun out... they got there fighting till the end, with more quality than expected (duff is a great player) and with a huge effort... believing every second that they could do it... well they finally couldnt do it, but that was because for one time spain was very lucky |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
nothing at all. pathetic, really. i was fed up with avatars. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
fighting your way thru the matches is nice, but playing beautiful footbal is way better, and that's what spain (and holland, cameroon) are good at. that's why i'm not sad ireland are out |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well spain is capable of playing beautifull football, but though they have done so in the 3 first matches, they didnt today...I hope they play well again next match |
||||||||

tomorrow: mexico - usa brazil - belgium I am sorry for my friends here from usa but my heart goes with mexico. about brazil and belgium I dont really care what happens there, but it would be normal that brazil won...but is anything normal in this world cup?? ....i dont think so |
||||||||

Its a shame that there is a myth that certain teams play "Beautiful" football and others just "Fight". Holland are no more beautiful to watch than Ireland , Cameroon were not 'sexy', and when Spain had to fight, they were not especially beautiful. Its a game, If you ever play it you know its all about pushing yourself 100%, and I really admire teams that do that . I'm proud of how Ireland played and they proved why Holland were not even there, they're a damn ugly side at times, and not a scratch on the great sides of the 70's and 1988 :) |

I dunno, I think the Brazilian womens team play pretty sexy!!! :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well spain did a great fight in the extra time with only 10 players in the field (albelda was injured and we had done all the changes) and luis enrique was also injured...so we could hold the draw with just 9 players...that was epic |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

hey nac, Spain deserve some luck and fought hard. They had to ! I'm just saying that I don't subscribe to the view that teams like Ireland are less enjoyable / less worthy because they rely on hard work. Netlon's view that only certain nations can play 'Beautiful' football is bullshit. For example, he mentions Cameroon ... did they play beautiful football this time ? Do Holland always play beautiful ? Spain... honestly, are they always beautiful ? No, they're not, no team is. And I hope Brazil get beaten to prove further that hard work and collective spirit is equal to fancy back-heels. Come on you underdogs !!!! Amen. :D |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
come on Senegal! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

i think there are teams that are playing more enjoyable football than others i like to see team to create the game-not just to strike ball somewhere i don't know irish team to well,but i really enjoyed how they played today-very attractive and i am surprised how fit they are-i mean they ran allover place for two houres, and it seemed like they could do it for two more but i don't agree with you about brazil tho -they are going to win this years cup |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well germany, england, senegal and spain are now among the best 8 countries of the world cup...do you think they deserve it for what they have done so far? |
||||||||
