World Cup 2006 Germany (USA WINS!)

So the World Cup has started (thats the tournament of people playing soccer for those Amerivans) and it looks pretty interesting this time around.

First match 2-4 Germany win, and now Ecuador lead Poland 0-1 a few minutes away from the half.

Post comments etc about it plz :) Who you think will win, who is over rated (Rooney) and who should have been there...

*pimp slap Rooney is most definatley not overated, he is one of the worlds top 10 footballers and will certainly win the fifa world player of the year award in years to come. Even though Germany just won 4-2, I dont think they have the depth to get past the quarter/semi finals.

England all the way.

that goal by frings was amazing!

#395142

Rooney (shrek) is the most overated player I have ever seen.

#395148

it's going to be a good one this time around...........a better team would have beaten germany....as for the USA Chances ..they only need to worry about Italy.....

#395150

Too early to be saying that. In these types of competitions, anything could happen.

#395151

YEH F*CK YEH!!! Ecuador just wiped the floor with Poland!! Si se puede! :D

Man I am so proud of the people who made it possible, the coach always looked so damned nervous though O_o

Next up is Costa Rica may god be with the team.

#395155

you're right but what i mean is that the level of the teams are almost equal...ecuador just beat poland thats a surprise..and i bet it won't be the only one...so i'll say it again this will bea good One..

all of my friends are putting off studying for exams in order to watch these matches.

i tried watching them but i cant follow no matter how hard i try, i do catch up on the results though, and i agree with VitorAngelo, if shrek was a bit uglier he'd look like rooney

Your saying Wayne Rooney is overated , How many premiership matches have you seen in the last 2 years? and also i think this could be Joe Coles time to shine.

#395184

Finally, a time when soccer/football is on TV in America...otherwise, it's like nowhere to be found. I caught a few minutes of the Poland/Ecuador match, but unfortunately it was after that first goal. Still, pretty darn cool!

Same thing with Shevchenko and when he was at Milan. When you have players that are amazingly talented feeding you good balls anyone is great.

@Khalua: actually this is their 3rd time. They were at the 1990 world cup and the 2002 ;) but i reckon they've been very impressive during the game agaisnt Poland. God I would love to see Germany out after the group phase :D

As for Rooney, don't even mention it guys, wait until you actually see him playing, you'll just love him if you're a true football fan. :)

#395246

Well, this is our 2nd Major World Cup, and I think I'm right coz I live here lol. We almost went to France 98 but we failed, then we went to Korea-Japan 2002 and now to Germany 2006!

The minor team, with dudes under 21 and 18 years went to the minor world up a few years ago too... and we got kicked out lol.

#395273

oh yes sorry man, I thought you were talking about Costa Rica, my bad :(

I think that Poland are actually a better team than Equador, just that they played better on the day.
