The Aussies were a bit unlucky there.
yeah i thought that it was for the most part even. shame kewel and viduka couldnt convert.anyway no one expected them to win so its not entirely bad.
australia is gonna upset alot of teams
they will go far in this world cup
what did you think of the japan Vs croatia game?
French played better than vs Swiss ... at least they fought tonight.
But we are supposed to win easely vs South Korea what a shame.
At the same time we're unlucky : we lose Cissé just before the World Cup starts, there is a goal that has been stopped with a hand of a defensor when we played swiss, and we scored two goals vs South Korea but one was stolen ... anyway that's not an excuse we're supposed to destroy teams like Korea so we get what we deserve.
they need to get out of the group stage first.Quote:

Trezeguet and Henry won't play up front together for some reason or other, shame really. I don't really like Domenech either, Tigana or Metsu shoulda got the job
i don't think they fought... they're not humble. they scored, and then what ?
makelele is still the best player of that team. but vieira is useless beside him. he's predictable when he passes, he can't shoot (what the hell ! can't his guy aim at the goal for once... just for once !) and he can't even tackle anymore. i don't know what happened to him, but he's the weakest point of the team. he used to be impressive.
The coach is the coach, he should be putting his best players out there. If they got some beefaroni going he should make them squash it. No ones bigger than the team and its just hurting everyone.Quote:

then they scored a second goal (the ball clearly entered)... it would have been a whole different story with 2-0 . But it is true we shouldn't depend of the mistakes the referee can make.Quote:

yeah ok about the second goal. i really think henry got robbed against switzerland too.
but... too many times, french players stop and wait for the ref to blow the whistle. i mean, that's not the fighting spirit. they should just play and if the whistle blows, good, if not, too bad, but let's keep playing.
Ribéry pissed me off about that against switzerland. he was a bit tougher yesterday, but still, he did that a few times again.
and sorry, i'm pissed at Vieira. really. how come a professional player can miss the exact same shoot all the time ?????? right in front of the goal, just on the line of the area... perfect pass and booooooooom, right in the sky.
and defensively, technically, he gets owned by Makelele...
the world cup is nuts im farkin lovin it, havent they scored almost the same amount of goals now as the entire last world cup or sumtin? 2 things, not ruining it, but hampering it
1) refereeing has been all over the shop, too many trigger happys refs going bananas with yellow and red cards, they went like almost a week without a penalty then had penalties in 5 games in a row or somthin
2) this ball is bonkers, everyone scoring from outside the box crazy shit, 3/4 of the goals in the tournament are contenders for goal of tournmanent, which is good in a way, but in a way takes a bit of art away
markus merk :no: :cop:
see, no one every thought wed play good, no one ever wants in world cups, and yeh we didnt get a result against brazil,a certain goal lookd to be a bit offside and none of the 50/50s went our but theres no excuses we didnt score so didnt deserve to win, but damn we played pretty fuckin good against the world champions, and for most part against japan,i hope we dont freeze up and play granny football against croats,coz if we play like we did against brazil & japan we shud get a result,well done boys :clap:
and maybe we seen the last of zizou with his suspension, if so, great career, but deserves a better exit than a repeat of 2002 performance
somebody said ghana would of won 5-0 if they werent so impatient, ghana would of won 5-0 if czechs had any other goalkeeper bar peter cech, that guy kept his team in the hunt, early contender for solo performance of the tournament for mine
up until popovic was forced off the australians looked defnesively strong, but then hiddink had to bring on bresciano which kind of weakened defense. it would have been better if aussies had been able to make that substitution in the last 20 or so mins and then have a crack at brazil.
