I think Algeria hold the key to this group now. Depends on how much they concede or maybe even pull off an unlikely point from here or there...

 

[blondu]

congrats USA ...now you gotta win in the last round

which is bad news for algeria bec now the pressure is on england tonight to win and next week the usa has to go for the three points.

There were at most two poor calls against Italy in the Korea match. Don't be a revisionist.

That said, we don't deserve to win this game anyway, but you gotta admit that was a good goal.

You deserved to win this game.

 

[giovanotti]

They played an impressive first half but boy..disgusting 2nd half.

Agreed, completely lost in the last 30 mins.

 

[Bjerknes]

Italy had five goals taken from them during the 2002 World Cup. Two against Croatia, two against Mexico and one against Croatia.

There were tens of poor calls during the Corea game, that game was influenced throughout and it's very poor form of some not to admit that.

So I won't accept that this decision influenced this particular game either. That's the way you want it to be after all.

OK, but the difference is I won't be crying about these calls in 2018, unlike alllllllll of the Azzurri fans. I even admit we probably didn't deserve to win after going down 2-0 like that. It was a fucking poor by us.

I put a lot of salt on whatever you lot have to say about those matches, sir. All those conspiracy theories.

 

[Albertmare]

That goal should have stood , what a poor decision by Balotelli's brother

You don't get it. This was ONE call and you were complaining. Italy had FIVE good goals taken from them and you blame them for complaining. It is quite obvious that someone decided that Korea should go through and that Italy and Spain would just have to go home. If Italy and Spain are called sore losers, I'm going to call the Americans sore losers for not accepting this call too.

Despicable behaviour from Altidore I say.

 

[Henry]

Two good goals you mean.

 

[Seven]

I have a big problem with this anyway you know. I'm glad Andy finally got a taste of his own medicine, but imagine the US not going through because of this. It's just plain wrong.

I won't be crying about this 8 years from now either.

But just so I know my English etiquette, this is where we're supposed to say "WE WUZ ROBBED!!!!!", right?

 

[king Ale]

Didn't influence the game though.

Huh? :wth:

 

[Seven]

Huh? :wth:

That's what Andy always says. The Azzurri deserved the go home in 2002. The ref didn't influence the game.

This was ONE wrong call. So it can't have influenced the game.

 

[Bjerknes]

you dont have to hope englad will have to play for the win against slovenia the US just needs to beat algeria

That's true. But if we play like this again we won't win. You can't expect to go down 2-0 at the World Cup and expect to win.

Maybe we'll get it right on the third try, but I do not have confidence in Bob Bradley. Just look what he did at halftime... took out our best passer out and put in Feilhaber who was horrible.

Ugh, just utterly horrible.

 

[Gabriel]

Noooo no soy mexicana y tu???

Honestamente no creo que Mexico le gane a Uruguay y menos por goleada! Va a ser emocionante ese Argentina - Mexico huh

No yo tampoco soy mexicano , de donde eres? yo soy de colombia

Yo tampoco creo que eso suceda, pero digo, los equipos no van a querer correr el riesgo o si? jaja.

Not very classy after the whistle the Americans.

arent you american

The ref is always right. But I still don't see what he saw in whistling dead that potential US third goal.

i like yo style ese
