*DAMN R6 Forum

ok, you guys might not give a shit about soccer but since im in europe right now.. i do. and today, the us lost to germany due to the biggest BULLSHIT calls EVEEEEEEEEEEEER!GAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!  >:( i spent a whole day getting harassed due to being american, and now this. I tell ya, this means war.

at least germany didnt blow us out of the water
1-0 is a hard fought game, in any sport you play

Technically there wasn't any bullshit.  The ball hit the defender's hand but he didn't do it intentionally rather he just failed to react and move.  By the rules it isn't counted as a foul then.  The fact that it was the only thing that prevented it from being a goal is unfortunate but doesn't change the rules.  Tough luck for the US as they played better than Germany through most of the game but thems the breaks.

And for at least two people, (me and blackmagic) football is important as we have been on GR chatting about it during the games throughout the month.  BM is a little less committed as me because he sleeps.  But I truly am committed and truly should be committed ;).

About the other game, England stunk outside of the goal and deserved to lose, especially for letting in such a garbage goal of the free kick.

I swear to fuck soccer is evil.
i usta play soccer, but what fun is it watching it on tv?
its like golf, no one has fun watching that, we all go to courses, get drunk and enjoy a few holes of golf

The point is, USA should have won because they are better and thats that! ;D

 My knee is fucked because of soccer  :(

Bondo, I agree with you on how that play was judged.

However !, I am almost positive the ball was over the line for a goal when the defender touched it. I don't think the judge had a good angle at the time to see if it passed or not... therefore he was forced to give Germany the ball with no goal for US.

It sucks, but thats the breaks. I think everyone will agree with me in saying, the US sure proved alot of strength this year.....

does anyone else think we will get this far next time around?

Hell yes

I think we can because I don't think this year was a fluke.  Then again, France and Argentina didn't advance so just because a team is good doesn't mean they get to the round of 8.  Anyway, I think another four years of MLS will mean the US is finally able to compete and beat any team on a given day.

Yes

Soccer is pure evil, lemme tell you.  Soccer fans must be the most vile beings on Earth.  I don't think one day has gone by without some soccer riot in Europe someplace.  Those people get out of hand I think.  When was the last riot you had over a MLB game?  NFL?  NBA?  Not too often....atleast none where people are seriously injured...

...Now...lacrosse.  Theres a sport, lemme tell you.  Ulti...back me up on this, will ya?

Hew PW, if you really want to see a great lacrosse game... check it out on the reservations (native american that is).  Talk about guys throwing their bodies into it (and without pads at all).  That is fun to watch.

But, Rugby, now that's the game!

i am italian and what should i say? they cancelled like 5 goals to us. but you know what....football and football fans sux. too much money...too much assholes pulling the strings of the whole thing. screw this. :P

well bondo Yes that is the rule but it is also cant be intentinal then if the player has his hand out and it hit it (happend) and You could just do that through the whole Feild..... But you can't so it was a Bullshit call because his hand was away from His body and that was intentinal even if he did not mean it, it still was a bad ruleing and i am down south in utah(U-14 regionals) and the Same thing happend and they got a pk. What i would Have ruled Was a Pk with out a red card because if you stop a ball With a field players hand then you are suppose To Have a pk and given a red card...

Bu Bye

The thing is that the defender got shot off by the ball , and the rules say that when a player touch the ball with no intention - and it was no intention b/c has hand did not move to the ball, the ball only hit his hand - it is no foul.

Im sorry for the US guys and players, they played better and the german defence sucked, and they made all wrong when they could do, but the ball is round and the games is going 90 min. So evry thing can happen. The germans were only more efficient and they still have the best keaper in the world - and it is no secret that without Kahn the germans would not have made it so far.

And now for all the US boys - I hope that the germans will defeat South Korea in a good match so the whole world can see that we can play football and that the US boys can say ok we lost against an even team - although the germans had a really dark day on last Friday.

Sorry but thats the game.
Im also sorry about that we have to play VS Korea i wanted then ti play in the finals - but when they win they kick germany out , and that is not my will.

I wanted a final betwenn England and Germany.

I guess you dont keep up with soccer.... England was already eliminated by Brazil. LOL

Ultimo - you're a native english speaker and you can't even understand someone who's not?  He said wanted

That's past tense.  As in it won't happen.  

Oh and as long as I'm being bitchy - the US may have played a better game against Germany, but they never should have been in the game in the first place.  It was only because of Portugal's bad play in the first round that the US advanced at all.  After that loss to Poland...

Anyway, it's all past now....

And Ebola's right anyway...money plays too much influence on the game

From how they looked in group play maybe they didn't deserve to be there, but they got there fair and square, and from how they played in the elimination games, they did deserve to be there.  They looked better than every other team I watched play in the elimination rounds except Brazil.

Oh yea... I must have read that wrong, I apologize.  ;)

 WEEEEEE W0000T the Yankees win theeee yankees win.  Finally in first place in front of those bastard red sox whos season is quickly ended...I knew they couldn't keep it up  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Infection - why would you post about baseball in a soccer thread?  It's not that hard to make a new thread...you could have started one that's all about baseball if you wanted....

 Cheela BBQ

sardy i was excited and i didn't want people to post on it i just thought that i would let you all quickly know

Infection, I think the proper way to type it is "The Yankees win, thehehehehehe Yankees win."  I wish them bastards would take a few years of suckdom once in a while.  I mean, I'm a Twins fan and they won in 87, went to the cellar until midseason 91 before winning that year, then they went into the cellar until last year when they have now put two solid seasons together to protect themselves from being no more.  Then there is the Rockies.  They were good way too early for an expansion team so they are paying by having the best bad team in baseball, capable of beating thehehehehe Yankees but also of losing to every team (except the Devil Rays apparently).  Now please STFU you greedy baseball mother fucker ;)

yanks own all your asses  ::) ::)

denying a goal making opportunity= RED CARD!!!!!
ehehehhee.

FIFA sucks anyway. DIE WORLD CUP!!!

yeah, and brazil MURDERED england. i hate the england team, too.

Germany reached the finals -  ;D

Im glad that they did that by playing well, playing better then Korea - it bad luck that they did not shoot more goals but the game is over and im glad that Germany made it to the finals.

I hope Brazil get kicked by Turkey, we have to play vs Turkey. That would be fun - it would not be important which team wins then, b/c always one group in Germany would celebrate and the y other would try an revolution, lol 8)

comment:

i was very surprised by the overall performance of the U.S. team. really. awesome how fast they where able to form such a excellent team. respect for that. i agree that many decisions from the referees sucked this world cup but that one situation when the german defender was struck by the ball on the goal line was clear. no foul.

if it would have been other wise u simply could shoot the ball on a defenders hand once u entered the "strafraum" (dunno the world in english sorry) and hope on a 11 meter (penalty shot). but i understand that many U.S team fans are angry because of that.

all in all i liked that game a lot (one of the best games this cup) and i wish to thank both teams for this exciting 90 minutes of world class soccer.

regards friends ;)

my main beef with that ref was all those yellow cards. WHAT THE HELL WAS HE THINKING? the things he gave yellow cards for.. grrr!! and the fact that germany made their goal off an illegit foul ticks me off too. AND  even if the US did win they wouldnt have been able to use half their starters next round. however, i accept the fact it's over. im just going to start a WM referee hate page.

and yeah, turkey is NOT going through brazil. turkey is lucky to have gotten so far, even though they have a decent team.

We saw so many surprises in this Woorld CUP why should Turkey defeating Brazil should be impossible?

So lets see.

And HAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOO Bander, nice to see u here again. Its quite good to read some words from u.

Hope see u soon.
