  1. I think Italy have progressed in the past by drawing of lots..... how else could they do it? Flip coins, as in Friday Night Lights? (I don't know if that's the way to do things in the States)
  2. I'm surprised by Ecuador - they've impressed me. The rest; not such a surprise.
  3. You could ask questions about the goalkeeping.
  4. :) My reverse psychology worked on Raul! Great news.
  5. I was going to say that I'd be shocked if Spain lost. Looking devoid of ideas now; Joaquin's there, but they're not using him. Raul's been disappointing as ever.
  6. Spain started sluggishly, but seem to be just about getting going now.
  7. He's a massive fiend for McDonald's, I believe. If it wasn't 1am I'd check it out further, but I know there's been references made to his fondness for Ronaldo McDonaldo's products for a long while now.
  8. Adriano, the only professional footballer who would make a decent pirate; his right leg being so useless it could easily be made of wood.
  9. Yes. It was just sliced wide from about 6 yards out. About 5 minutes ago maybe.
  10. I went for the eyes, because I've seen enough.
  11. Anyone wanting to learn how to save a penalty, ask Kawaguchi. Perhaps get a translator, too, because you might not speak Japanese. Although he did have a spell at Portsmouth, so he might speak a bit of English.
  12. The two Ghana players who scored goals yesterday will not be playing due to yellow cards? I think that's the case, yes. (I've just checked - yes, it is) By the same token, USA will be missing Pope and Mastroeni.
  13. Cannavaro is the perfect example of an Italian defender. Draw your own conclusions.
  14. He's getting sloppy when in the box. Convey and Dempsey are doing a reasonably good job down there so far. That's exactly it. Either his passes are astray, or he wants a touch too many.
  15. So does Donovan. When attacks are breaking down, it tends to be at his feet.
  16. [Curse words in Italian] Utter stupidity!
  17. I'm very impressed so far, and predict bad things for Totti.
  18. If this stays as it is, the Czechs could well be out; they've got Italy next, and won't have any strikers for that game. Out for them that game:- Lokvenc, Koller, Baros.
  19. Portugal just scraping ahead with a lovely goal from Deco.
  20. I got this from the BBC website. *Its about the finals, incidentally - not qualifying, as I'd said.
  21. Goals for, normally. I'm just trying to confirm that. (This was for qualifying, but its safe to assume it carries through)
  22. Probably earned himself a job with a club team after the WC is finished. They said he'd been without one for three years!
  23. The group of death claims its second victim. Now let's see if Mexico will respond to the inspirational Marquez, or Angola will do it via the overhead kicking expertise of Akwa.
  24. Its another first game that I'm going to miss the second half of coming home from work. :x Can't they stop these three game days during the week?
  25. :P - Good timing. By you and Sweden.
