Zotte feest hier

Respect to Team USA, great goalie, most saves since the 60s in a single game. Now red devils gotta spank Argentine for the incredible boring football they've been playing.

You do know Belgium wont park the bus right ?

Messi's son looks exactly like his father

No DNA test needed. Kid is copy/paste Messi.

 

[Always-honest]

It's dumb to say you're better than a team in another group. The world cup rankings pretty much fall apart outside the top 4 cause of the tournament structure. Italy are better than the US but had a more difficult group. No one would ever argue that Algeria are better than Portugal in the same way..

Algeria would have had a very good chance against portugal. portugal isn't a team imo.

 

[Frustrated_Grunt]

I'm still baffled at how early soccer commentators call games.

"15 minutes left? Yeah that's the game."

 

[Micerider]

So, you're still behind the US. That's okay. Maybe do an aggregate with the EU?

Spoiler

really, though, don't stop exporting that chocolate

Haha yes, and for all I can say GDP is a poor metric in "contribution". USA (and Belgium, and Poland) have much more worthy contributions than "mmmmmoooonnnnneeyyyyyyy".

 

[Einbroch]

Sure if you disregard the first 90 minutes of the game.

Can you not just accept that someone is happy for their team?

Why do you want to continuously kick someone(s) when they're down?

Messi's son looks exactly like his father

that kid looks nothing like messi. similar hair maybe?

 

[AcademicSaucer]

Ha. Bradley was far from the worst player on the US squad. Jones/Dempsey/Zusi looked worse today than he did. Bradley was almost always the man leading the attack with his runs and passes down the side to Yedlin. And you can always count on him to run back to aid on defense.

WTF America, Bradley is your best player, i saw the whole match, and he was the only one that understood the game, he had timing, vision, hes is by far your best player .

 

[Wilbur]

But I don't have a team, HOW DO I PICK A TEAM!?

The way most people do it I guess, is (assuming you're an American):

Start watching matches with American players involved. In the PL, Howard at Everton would be a good shout, or Dempsey at a club like the Sounders. From there, you might find yourself following that team more.

Or Arsenal might beat Everton 6-0 one day and you'll think "fuck that team was awesome to watch, gonna watch them more", so you decide to do that.

I think an easy way for a lot of new fans to join in is to watch the Champions League, because even without affiliations it's fun to see the big guns go at each other.

USA came out of a group with Germany, Portugal, Ghana.

Sure as hell will. You guys seem awesome. Just don't go too hard on us...

They're not. Especially Wilbur will hunt you in your nightmares.

We're not down. USA! USA! USA!

Well, of course, the world cup is full of surprises but Portugal are still a team, and a good one. One bad tournament does not a bad team make.

 

[Clydefrog]

Congrats, Belgium. You're our new Ghana now.

Fuck 'em up, Messi.

Kids tend to look like one of their parents. My daughter is the spitting image of her mother.

better hope he gets his height gene from his mum.

it was a disease

 

[Maintenance]

Haha. To me those eyes and mouth give away the dad. That smile.

Everton also qualified for the Champion's League.

There's a kid in that pic?

Agreed 100%

[kamorra]

I would stay, some of you guys seems fine, but I don't have a team, never had for quite some time. I just like the sport since I was a kid.

SSC NAPOLI

C'MONNNNNN

 

[PeskyToaster]

I'm glad that was a pretty clean game. No ref controversies, no weird calls, and no biting. One extra minute was a little heart breaking but we had opportunities to score multiple times so we needed to capitalize on those instead of worrying about extra time.

 

[El Sloth]

Same height and everything

lol damn

The problem is that CONCACAF makes him look like a god, plus he can definitely do better than he has been doing. Everything after Julian Green came on is what we have come to expect from him at all times.

Barely won a game, Drew a game and lost one. They kinda scraped through.

 

[Dragon]

You realize i don't care ? Also the over patriotism of americans annoys me, and not just in football. Actually the football side of it is the less annoying part of it.

I'm just happy to see the USA dreams crushed by Belgium.

You should probably back up such a statement. If you don't want to appear to be an asshole. And no one wants to appear to be an asshole and generalize 350 million people.

 

[Kurt Angle]

too bad England couldn't even manage that

 

[Charles Foster Kane]

Navas is going to show you all who is the GOAT goalie in the game against Netherlands.

 

[Wilbur]

Dortmund huh? My hometown is all blue and white if you catch my drift.

loooooooooooool please come into FootyGAF

Is it Schalke? No one seems to like Schalke hahahah

Gazprom I think

 

[Jeff-DSA]

That was some bull. 1 minute is ridiculous. But whatever, we had 119 before it to get it done.

 

[Guevara]

I was waiting for this one. Right before this he looked right at the camera and said something like "One minute what the fuck"

Just use Hitchers steps m8.

I don't have a problem with that, but anyone who watched the completely can easily say that we played really bad in the first 90 minutes. Now if you want to turn the events the way you like, then sure go ahead. But keep that thing up when other teams plays - Argentina, Germany etc. The amount of shit they get when they score 1 goal or goal less in extra time is unbelievable.

 

[silver.tongue]

MLS fans, Kaka was signed... is his new team any good?

 

[Jibbed]

Well shit, I had a feeling this World Cup would finally have me enjoying football.. and there it is.

Local teams are Liverpool, Everton and Tranmere.. lol.

 

[2San]

Well yeah, I don't know many teams that would dominate that group.

 

[warthog]

BELGIUM BELGIUM!!!

YEAAAAaaaahhhhhh

Finally a game where they dominated. Unfortunately they needed 20 shots on goal to score. And after 2-0 the game should have been over. But hey, good game and we're through. Great result. And Argentina isn't invincible in the next round.

I'm having difficulties focusing on the kid in that picture.

 

[Dawg]

Was pretty mad at just one minute extension, heard a couple of fucks :lol

 

[B-Dubs]

No idea, it's a new team. The team has been tearing up the lower level league, but who knows how they'll do against MLS proper.

OR Messi's father...
