Despite you having zero knowledge of the game, you knew what Messi was thinking? In Argentinian or US English?

Poignantly that post just proves that YOU know zero about the game..

It is difficult for you to understand so I will type slowly just for you.
You are claiming that you knew what an internatinal footballer with sublime skills was thinking at a particular point in a world cup match?

Please enlighten us oh wondrous one.

Which nonsensical question was that again you've permeated the board with so many it's hard to differentiate?

I don't waste my precious time answering ignorance and trolls in any detail as it usually gets ignored or goes over their heads anyways, especially those who profess not to even watch the sport..

I see where your comments are directed and since they're baseless and ignorant I treat them as such and just discard them.. I converse intelligently with the other members here who can conduct themselves and have respectful debate on an informed level and that doesn't include you.. Anyway I'm going to do something productive like clean out my sewer lines or mow my lawn instead of wasting good time exchanging with the ignorant likes of you.. Carry on with that drinking now.. Or stone cold sober eh? Maybe that's your problem then, alkies are usually grumpy when they need a drink..

Not watching the game, Gents ?

You chose to ignore the question because you cannot answer it.

Sorry mate TV is on the blink. A bit like our 'nonsensical' American friend.

Good point helge, obviously the soccer authority should be he obviously needs more exposure to the sport, but yet he says he doesn't watch it so it's a wonder why or how he continues to THINK he's some sort of authority on all things soccer ...

Famous straw man.. More like I choose NOT to answer it, because the poser of the question is irrelevant and that irritates you even more to be so dismissed and marginalized..

Have your melt down later mate. I have been watching the game live for over 50 years. I played the game for over 20 years. I am therefore disinclined to take advice from an ignorant novice. I will always KNOW more than you about the game.

You admit that you cannot answer the question then? It's not a straw man at all. Just a simple question, Please show any evidence of my criticism of the US association football team. Any evidence at all from any source. Not just this thread, but anywhere on the forum.
Come on big mouth, let's see the evidence you have accused me of.

0-0 at halftime/ the break/ end of second quarter

Half time another cup of tea and a lie down.

Oranges anyone?

Ouch did you say quarter helge? Oh, you're going to get a bollocking from the self proclaimed board soccer authority Cassamui, for that mis-terminology there helge. Currently he's off masturbating over his self perceived victory over someone who won't entertain him with an argument over his soccer knowledge short comings..

Are you saying you cannot prove your statement about me being critical of the US association football team FB?
Are you admitting that that statement was incorrect or you were just plain wrong? Would you consider an apology in order for that ill informed accusation?

his soccer knowledge short comings

Care to be more specific about these shortcomings FB? Perhaps another apology is in order?

I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you. You need to be quite bright and have considerable experience of the game for that. As you have neither of these attributes, perhaps you should rest your case. Before your big stupid mouth gets you into even more trouble.

I said before you were entitled to an opinion, but you insist on trying to prove your superiority to more knowledgeable and experienced advocates of the game.

Climb down from that high horse, or suffer the indignity of telling all and sundry that you are Canadian and therefore not associated with that nasty George Bush character.

Into prolonged playing time
0-0

Costa Rica's luck has to run out soon

From the BBC:

Netherlands 0-0 Costa Rica

Hope to see you again


Hup Holland, Ocker

Is it a dutch thing ?

I saw van Breukelen do the same thing in 92

Yes, I watched every second with mixed feelings, if mixed feelings are, on the one hand, wanting CRC to win to give cred to CONCACAF and, on the other hand, seeing how Holland had such a spectacular backline that prevented 90% of CRC's attacks in addition to a potent but ineffective front line (Robben/Van Persie) which didn't produce simply b/c of the fact that I believe CRC's goalie played the game of the tournament, excepting his performance in the shootout. What am I rambling on about? Nederland deserved to win and did. But this game should produce a 180 degree attitude change for Holland, if they expect to get to the final again.

They [the rotten cheating Dutch] sure gave the Costa Rican keeper a work out in the second half....

The spunky Central Americans play valiantly and had their moments.
Congrats to the Netherlands.
