Chicharito and Inzaghi are criticized for scoring goals and not creating. Many felt that others put in their position would do better. Their movement and positioning allows them to score goals.

I just want to make sure everyone gets their well deserved bonuses for an outstanding job.
Man, Argentina played very differently today. Teamwork + Magical play by Messi = GREAT GAME. Finally! Argentina off to the second round.
About damn time too!
They did an excellent job cracking an excellent defense system by Costa Rica. This wasn't an easy game. Their first goal got them in the mood for a change and they played in style and as a team [/]. No need to belittle their achievement

Having Aguero would indeed be epic, even though at his latest match he kicked the ball way higher than the target when the goal was nearly in front of him. It just sucks that recently the Barcelona talk died down and more reports are showing up about him staying in Ateletico. Oh well, we still have till the end of the summer. You think he would be a good sub for Villa/Affelay?

Do they even need another forward? They already have Pedro, Villa, Messi, Bojan, Affelay, and are in line to get Sanchez.
If Pep gets Aguero, that would just be to troll the hell out of Mou.
And the rest of Europe.

Fortunately, Bojan is leaving FCB.
Good game last night. I'm surprised that Gago's still remember how to play football...but tonight there will be blood; I hope that both Chile and Uruguay win. I don't have anything against Peru, but I wanna see the best ones in the next round.

Argentina didn't win. They OWNED a bunch of 20-22 Y.O. Costa Ricans. It was like a FIFA 11 match against the CPU on the easiest difficulty - with the player being Argentina. And the C.Rican boys were absurdly lucky that
Higuain was on the field so

First half over, and it's like Chile was playing alone in the field. And Chile is not even playing with it's main team.

Not scoring != Barely reaching.
And lol at Peru doing a "decent job". Well, I guess you can be satisfied with that performance.

Not at all, but Chile is playing with it's C Team. It's understandable that Chile isn't playing as good as always, but it's doing it better than Peru.jett said:

Chile has a lot players with yellow cards, thats why they were left on the bench in this match.

yeah.........no. chile doesn't have a c team. this is our b team, we are not brazil or argentina. our A team is very good, the B squad not so much.
on the other hand, pretending that peru is at our level is insane. last four matches have been in favour of chile and peru finished last on the south american qualifiers to south africa, they are a team on reconstruction with a new coach.
also, boring game.

Fucking boring game. It was clear for the first minute that Perú was happy as hell with a 0-0 (crappy attitude).
Chile's playing was less than average too, but at least... the players were trying to attack the entire game.
Ugly as fuck goal LOL, but I guess we can call it divine justice

Happy happy joy joy.
Now in the next match at least we're going to see some goals. Otherwise, Uruguay might be out.
Why?

It wasn't just Peru though.
Both teams were saving players for next match, but Chile had more players to spare, Peru didnt, so they just played with what they have.
Chile wanted more so than Peru to avoid Argentina, so they put Sanchez and Valdivia later on the second half to help.
But yah, while I dont agree that their strategy sucked (as they at least did seek to score by counter attack/long passes), they did play like ass.
