The game's not great, but if you could somehow time it so you caught every Japanese free-kick, you'd be in for a treat.

must be the karate

oh shit holland goal

flip now

really nice play

Come On Japan!!!!!!!

cameroon evens the score with a penalty kick. denmark is FUBARed.

soft penalty

honda is awesome-- the play for that 3rd goal-- wow

Wow, much respect to Japan.

see, everyone got hard-on's over Germany after their 1st game but that was a good a performance as i've seen from anyone in this world cup

if Brazil had scored a goal like Japans 3rd people would be talking about it for years

Just as if Ronaldo had scored either of their free-kicks, nobody would be talking about the goalkeeper fucking up. Japan were awesome. 4-0 would've been a more approriate score.

Paraguay v Japan is gonna be brilliant.

Meanwhile, while I didn't see their game, Holland are quietly looking very solid.

That camerun match was one of the finest matches of the Cup! They played with ABSOLUTE heart even though they had no chance of advancing, they played EVERY single minute like it counted, and NEVER gave Hollanda an inch for even a second! Further, they had the BEST interceptions I have seen yet from any team, they had the ball more than the Dutch 2-1 but the Dutch simply outplayed them, as expected. Camerun had perfect possession and finesse, and also they got practically every kick their goalie put down field, which was AMAZING! I have seen teams waste so many possessions by letting the goalie lob it down the pitch only to let the opposing team easily swoop it up, where as camerun picked it up almost everytime, good match! Argentina and Germany have been the smartest teams, they NEVER do that, they ALWAYS slowly, patiently take the ball down the field rather than risk losing possession to a wild down-pitch pass by the goalie, which seems to be a preference this Cup. Also, Argentina has been especially smart to run the ball backfield and slow down and draw out the opposing teams, allowing them many good scoring opportunities. I think it is Argentina contra Brasil all the way!!

Camerun and the Dutch definitely played one of the better matches, and I also liked their show of excellent sportsmanship both during and after the match, it was always smiles, hugs and handshakes through out. Great teams, great Cup.

Peace out Europe, all the Euro-trash teams are getting eliminated, No Italy. No France. Either way Germany or England will get out. Peace out Espania (I promise you) and I wouldn't be surprised to see Portugal get tossed out either. What a great UPSET!

"Europe ain't my rope to swing on.. can't learn a thing from it, cuz we aint from it.."

holland is monstrous.


yes !@#$%!, i'll grease myself.
i doubt "nuestros hermanos" won't make it, though.

why do i keep seeing Ivory Coast refered to as Cote D'Ivoire but Spain never Espagne?

God gave me these commandments, the world is scandalous
Blast til they holy high; baptize they evil minds
Wise, no longer blinded, watch me shine trick
Which one of y'all wanna feel the degrees?
Bitches freeze facin Black Jesus

ahem:


;)

yeah, i meant in the media

and not just spain, they're just the only team i can spell in their own language

personally, I have developed the habit of calling all the nations in their spanish name, since I been watching the Cup in espanol. I dig it, mas sabor

It's a fair question.

And are the English arrogant in still refering to the Dutch team as Holland, rather than The Netherlands?

no no.. its pronounced "Hoh-land-ah" ;)
