June 24, 201411 yr f***, that drama. I'm really, really, really sad for Ivory Coast right now. Penalty to decide which team would see a knockout stage first, it doesn't get any more high-stakes than that.
June 24, 201411 yr Samaras! Incredible stuff! And Mondragon saved one on one in the last minute too, great stuff. Started off a bit dull tonight but two more excellent games, Colombia so good. Brazil will have their work cut out with Chile and then (probably) Colombia! Second round Brazil v Chile Colombia v Urugauy Holland v Mexico Costa Rica v Greece
June 24, 201411 yr Missed all the games! Expect Suarez will get banned for the rest of the World Cup. Don't know what he was thinking, just really think he can't channel his anger/frustration. Liverpool won't do a thing about it, infact if anything I bet John Henry and Brendan Rodgers are slightly glad the incident happened, no chance Real Madrid or Barcelona will want to be forking out all money for him now.
June 24, 201411 yr I'm so mad at Greece making it to the final 16 What kinda ugly football theh play Hopefully Costa Rica will take them out without mercy
June 24, 201411 yr I'm so mad at Greece making it to the final 16 What kinda ugly football theh play [Hopefully Costa Rica will take them out without mercy Choose your words carefully. We totally deserved to get through the next round. Did you watch the game? The ball bounced off the post three times so we would be so unlucky if we lost the game... :smoke: I really wanted Netherlands to be the winners but when I read these kind of statements, I hope you will lose too.
June 25, 201411 yr Greece didn't turn up for their first game and only seemed to switch on in their second when they had a man sent off. Ridiculously lucky to go through above two teams with miles more talent. The game against Costa Rica will be horrendous but the Dutch must be thinking that if they can see off Mexico they'll be making the semis.

Funny how your opinion can change due to one person on an internet forum criticizing your countries football game. But whatever floats your boat I guess, but that isn't going to change my opinion about the game.
June 25, 201411 yr That red card for Valencia seemed harsh to me, it looked like his foot accidentally slipped off the ball.
June 25, 201411 yr That red card for Valencia seemed harsh to me, it looked like his foot accidentally slipped off the ball. It was the fact that he went in with his studs rather than the toe of his boots that did for him.
June 26, 201411 yr So Suarez banned for 4 months from football. Proper annoyed Liverpool have been mugged off again, but utterly stupid from Suarez.
June 26, 201411 yr So 9 games and 4 month ban including stadiums so he can't watch the next match. Rumours Uruguay may withdraw now but would be banned from 2018 too for breaking the agreement to play all matches until out of the tournament.
June 26, 201411 yr Uruguay will appeal but whether that means the ban will be upheld I don't know, I hope not. Ridiculous that Uruguay can appeal but Liverpool cannot, especially considering it effects is more than them! Could have been worse though.
June 26, 201411 yr Suarez will only miss nine Premier League games. It could even be eight depending on when the ban ends. Liverpool are due to play Hull on 25 October. However, if Hull are in the Europa League group stages, the match will be moved to the 26th, four months from today. I think he has got off lightly.
June 26, 201411 yr Fairly lenient punishment, it's even shorter than the last time he was punished for this I think? Although I was worried he'd be off the hook completely sooo Anyway, Group G final matches today should be pretty great!
June 26, 201411 yr Well, what a tough loss for the US squad at 1-0 to Germany, but, at times they were seriously outplayed in their by the German team. US team had a couple of chances late, but couldn't convert. At least the US squad moves on to the knockout stages, even with the Portugal win over Ghana, due to goal differential...
