The truth is quite different, with another photo since emerging showing the fan, known as 'Gaucho da Copa', smiling as he hands his replica trophy to a German fan, reportedly being quoted as saying: "Take it to the final! As you can see, it is not easy, but you deserve it, congratulations!"
 
This is a very tactical yet rather intense and interesting match so far. But I can see a goalless draw right into extra time. Not for everybody's taste I guess.
 
That story had a pretty happy ending:

Edit: Beaten like Brazil vs Germany[/QUOTE]

I saw that earlier. Very touching. Old guy still has a few World Cups in him though.
 
Defense has been great by both teams.

I think Argentina has a better chance of winning at this point.
 
You know what I have come to love about Football/soccer during this WC....no fucking TV commercials during the game,now thats awesome lol... ;))
 
Whats wrong with him talking about it I don't get your problem with it.

it isn't bad that he is discussing the issue, but the only thing he ever says is a rant about it. now i agree, it is an important issue. but the 20 second snip he gets on espn saying fifa needs to do something isn't going to get anything done, especially since i doubt very many people are paying attention to ESPN's halftime coverage. now if he started a campaign in partnership with the US Soccer Federation, that would be very helpful.

Commercials during the games? WHATTT. I hate commercials between each round in boxing, what kind of sport would have ads DURING the game??? And why would people even support this?
