[Last Uchiha]

WOW

 

[mellz]

Dat tackle from sanchez

 

[Juz]

Great save.

 

[Kurt Angle]

I thought Kone played in Swansea

 

[The Omega Man]

Not gonna happen Greece, let it go, you got Colombia'd

 

[Mr Cola]

I love the oversize novelty sub board

 

[moai]

greece makes me wonder how this limited skill wise teams do qualify, specially in europe qualifiers. there is so much disparity in europe.

 

[Gurthang]

Why isn't Jackson Martinez playing? Surely he is better than Gutierrez guy

 

[ColossalLazy]

That why I am saying to not give space to Greece. Shit like this happens.

 

[Majestad]

How I wish Falcao was playing.

 

[Maintenance]

Already? That was fast.

 

[Blablurn]

hold me

 

[feel]

I'm watching the game on Directv Sport for Latin American and there are about 3 colombians commenting, they are saying James as Ha-mes, so... That's the way to say it.

It's "Ha-mes", it's been cleared in interviews with him or his dad a million times.

 

[WAR recon zero]

We're shit

Hopefully they are nervous about the debut

Now we must destroy them

 

[Arjen]

Pretty crappy match so far.

because skill is just one part of the game. tactics and organisation are also important.

 

[Rekwest]

Lunch break.

 

[John Dunbar]

so what's the reason everyone seems to hate greece? is it just because they won the euro by playing crazy defensive? the way people are talking about them makes it seem like they're cheating scum or something.

 

[wakajawaka]

Have they ever?

 

[LuuKyK]

 

[davidsaurus]

What a save!

Good save

Good safe

Nice save!

Was really quite comfortable. Not even close to top corner, side footed from outside the box. Easy save honestly.

football. how does it work.

 

[Hieberrr]

Bevlcause they are boring as fuck and lack technical skills. People like excitement.

 

[pulga]

hold me

 

[darknil]

I'm watching the match in a movie theater. So much HYPE.

 

[meanspartan]

Stuck in stupid Bar review and have to follow the score online. Can't believe Greece went down 1-0 in 5 minutes. Ridiculous. Get it fucking together guys.

 

[Shanks D Zoro]

It is mainly from countries who haven't enjoyed much success and are jealous. I have no problems with Greece winning in 04.

 

[Courage]

I predict no changes from the Colombian side, and Santos to actually put in an attacker that isn't lounging in the pitch.

 

[Magni]

They're boring. If a boring team wins, other teams start playing the same (see: tiki taka), so nobody wants the boring team to win.

 

[qindarka]

Greece's victory in Euro 2004 is the second best footballing moment of the new millennium.

 

[Azuran]

All the SA teams have been shit so far. So funny how people were overrating them.

Looking forward to the Ticos causing an upset later today.

 

[Maintenance]

 

[ActStriker]

This Hyundai commercial is awesome.

 

[Niks]

We're shit

Yeah pekerman needs to work some magic. Very poor first half.

 

[krYlon]

Such a shame Falcao didn't make it
I'd prefer seeing a world cup with the best players.

Also, Greece really aren't as bad as some of you gus are making out.

 

[luso]

Did you checked their qualification group?

Also, imagine next Euro expanded to 24 teams...

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

This Hyundai commercial is awesome.

[Plywood]

oh wow

 

[CelticKnight]

Match is simmering as opposed to boiling. Still needs something.

Just like this thread needs more attracitive females. Japanese, Colombian, or otherwise.

 

[Arksy]

Anyone got a streaming link for me? Away from TV atm!

 

[Sadist]

hubba hubba

 

[darknil]

Why isn't Jackson Martinez playing? Surely he is better than Gutierrez guy

He sucks in the NT, does not have any confidence. Actually Bacca won his spot.

 

[meanspartan]

This. Fuck you haters. Playing defensively is perfectly viable. And if you watched Euro 2004 and thought it was "boring" seeing a complete underdog eliminate France, Czech Republic, and Portugal, you are full of shit.

 

[John Dunbar]

They're boring. If a boring team wins, other teams start playing the same (see: tiki taka), so nobody wants the boring team to win.

but with teams like spain it's a matter of crazy talent choosing those tactics. with greece it's a limited talent pool making the most of their material. it's hard to summon such obscene levels of hate to that.

 

[Haribi]

Can any Colombians here shed light into why Teofilo is starting? I remember him from his Trabzonspor days where he was horrible and today he has been pretty bad as well. Surely Martinez, Ramos and Bacca are better than him.
