Well, knock me down with a feather!

Germany lost against Serbia and missed a penalty...

And don't start me on that referee... :rolleyes:


Anyway, if the USA game follows the recent trend as well, USA will lose 5-0 or something. :-/

doh! Scher, I jinxed you!

Aaaacckkkkkk!!!!!! I come in from dinner and I find that Germany lost!!! :svengo::svengo: How could that be???? What happened? I missed it.

And now the US is killing me too. I may be close to being wiped out by the end of the night. Oh the horror. :bawling:

Papaya>Yes! It's all your doing! :p


USA's come back was excellent but not good enough.

Slovenia's first goal was quite good but I missed USA's disallowed goal.

What did you guys think of that?

Well, there was no offsides, that was for sure. There was some pushing and shoving, probably four or fives cases of it, but if anyone was fouling, it looked like a Slovenian (or two) would've been the ones to get called for it. The U.S. announcers and post-game analysts saw nothing, and the ref has so far refused to explain what the foul was.

The USA tied it :D While not great, taking into account that they were 2-0 at the first half, I'm pleased enough.

Yeah, just watched a replay and seems like it was the Slovenians who were getting too intimate, actually.

It was a great comeback and frankly the officiating cost the US a victory. There was nothing wrong with that third goal. We should have won.

WE WAZ ROBBED!!!

Yes I agree, there was nothing wrong with that goal, you was certainly robbed there.

The whole group is up in the air now with that result and the German loss. It is now not a certainty that Germany will finish top of their group. As predicted things are hotting up, we are now seeing plenty of goals as the stakes get raised.

Fancy England strongly against Algeria.

Edu(great rangers player)'s goal was perfectly fine but I think overall a draw was a fair result USA were shocking in the first half......

No to the England game - "Calamity" James starts in goal, carragher in defence, barry comes in, and heskey keeps his place.

Zero pace between terry and carragher better keep a fairly deep line

USA were mighty impressing, and why that goal didn't count will remain the referee's secret forever, I suspect :(

They played a great second half. They don't seem as large as some of the other teams, but they seem very quick. That referee has to answer some questions.

I am gambling big on England today. I hope they deliver! :D

*gets out algerian flag*

You missed me Sch. I wanted (for some reason) all in England, 35 for the win, thanks.

Though after 25 minutes here, we look awful, but a bet is a bet.
