[Rakido]

wasn't a very good game, both teams played definitely better before in the tournament.

But now Germany waits

Brazil all the way...

wonderfull two goals in the second half against Belgium....

[The PIT]

Why did the Belgium have the goal disallowed I couldn't see anything wrong with it. Now if they had scored that would have been interesting.
Anyway Owen hat trick in the first five minutes should do the Job.
Well done USA by the way.

We were unlucky. Afterwards Prendergast (the referee) admitted that he made a mistake. It should have been a valid goal.

It was a great match, Belgium was better than Brazil but allas we didn't made it. Marcos (Brazilian GK) made some great saves.

What an increadible win! Man, this mean no sleep still...

im glad about the US. but i have a bet going with a friend that Spain will go further then Italy

[The PIT]

He admitted a mistake or did he bottle it. I still remember the FA Cup semi final between Chesterfield and Middlesborugh when Chestefield scored the third and the ref bottled it. It would have been Chesterfield 3 - 0 up at that stage and Middleborugh down too ten men.
The worrying thing about the Brazil game is that it looks like they've got a good Goalkeeper as well.

[KeiFront]

He admitted it, and yes the Brazilian goallie made some great saves. Could be an interesting match this Friday.

[The PIT]

We were in the pub and someone asked where the Ref came from and we all said Brazil.
Where is he if he hadn't made that mistake we may have been playing Belgium.

The new song by Afroman, starring Peter Prendergast from Jamaica

I was gonna become a referee but then I got high
Still I was selected by the FIFA although I was high
I'm gonna judge the match Belgium Brasil
- although I'm high [repeat 3X]
I was gonna have my eyes checked but then I got high
I am as blind as a mole and I am high
My eyes are still ****ed up and I know why
- cause I got high [repeat 3X]
I wasn't gonna blow my whistle but I was high
Wilmots didn't make a foul but I was high
now I'm discriminating against the Red Devils and I know why
- cause I'm high [repeat 3X]
I was favoring Brasil cause I was high
I just got a very nice bribe and I got high
they doubled my paycheck and I know why
- to get high [repeat 3X]
I messed up the entire match because I was high
The Red Devils lost the game because I was high
now I'm hated by the Belgian's and I know why
- cause I was high [repeat 3X]

Why the USA must go out of the world cup:

From a US sports site this morning:

64 min: GOAL Mexico 0 - 2 USA. Two soccer points to no score!
Eddie Lewis makes a cross-pitch play from the left zone, finding Landon Donovan alone in the danger area. He top-bodies the sphere into the score bag, and Mexico have a double-negative stat!

PS I don't think it is real!

Italy 1, South Korea 2.
