That call was a crappy, crappy call. Just because the guy from Ghana had no balance, we lose...go figure.
No kidding, when they showed the replay, his hands were completely at his sides... they just h8tin lol
USA, didn't deserve to win it... they don't take soccer seriously and the other countries are just better. This is coming from a person who's living in USA....
Ghana is better. Im glad they advance, first african country to advance. Also cant believe japan managed to score on brazil. Japans goaltender made some spectactular save in the opening minutes.
As they're two unrelated things? The USA didn't really deserve to win, they got outworked even though the penalty call was poor they didnt deserve to win the game.
Im glad USA lost.. Their coach said that Australia "was just there to make up the numbers" too bad you didnt win a game.. No offense to all US supporters, your team is fine, but your coach has to learn some manners, and shut the ---- up, unless he can back it up.. Well in Ghana.. //lat
yeah the PEOPLE in the usa don't take it seriously but i'm pretty sure the guys playing were, soccer just hasn't caught on as well as in most other countries but the fans that do appreciate the sport don't need to be ripped on. and i mean USA being ranked only 5th i bet they didn't take it seriously. too bad we were in the pool of death or we could have gone far.
Did you see aussie's pool? croatia, Japan, BRASIL, Australia?.. I think thats a lil harder than the US. //lat
Yeah seriously what is "we don't take it seriously". We were ranked 5th and we went to the semis last world cup... it may not be the most popular sport, but those who play it love the game just as much as anyone else... what a naive comment
does it matter... did USA even have a chance. The call was stupid, but have you watched the other matches.... every single one of them has mistake-calls by refs.
The refs in the World Cup called way too many calls. It's disappointing not being able to see stars play becuase they got too many yellow cards or red cards. This also made other people change their game. USA got killed, hopefully '10 will be better.
yeah i'll agree Aussies got hosed in their pool too. the reffing was absurd the whole tournament. there were so many dives that got called with cards. it was just pathetic. but i'm not too disapointed in USA's performance against Italy, it was a very good game but i still hate them for playing so crappy against the Czechs.
