    The Brazil Ronaldo?
    Ronaldo in the soccer world is like the surname Smith in the English Western world. =p
    I also recall a "Revaldo" at school, I think... >.>

    I think Australia played awesome! Very dangerous (just like Chili) and in it to win it until the last minute. Great team this year :2thumbsup: This was by the way the first time in history that they lost from the dutch! So we are very content over here haha.
    Spain is a big dissapointment, I almost can't blame the conspiracy theorists for thinking about matchfixing :p What a LOSER team!

    In this case it was not even about being a wuss or not. Unless you are a keeper you don't use your hands (and even then you're supposed to use them on the ball, not pushing away other people :D) so righteous red card in any way :p

    I like Cahill's overall efforts so far. Really one of the most dangerous of your team and knows how to turn one second and mistake from the opponent's team to his advantage. The build up of that goal was a bit lucky: after he got that ball (which wasn't really planned, nice reaction of the guy who shot it over to him!) he had no more than a second to decide what to do with it. Looks like he did the only right thing! :p

    The whole team is fucked up lol. Did you see the end of the game, when that Cameroon player hit that other Cameroon player? Lol.

    Have to admit my attention span was a bit weakened around that time :p But I wouldn't say they were total shit or all as nasty as that guy who got the red card. But they're not champions either :p

    Could be all in game concentration and just happen (kind of) on accident in the heat of the moment and the headbutt to a teammate frustration because they're losing. I wouldn't call them all a disgrace that fast myself. But yeah I think we all can agree that they could use some more discipline.

    Remember, England isn't necessarily out yet, it depends a lot on Costa Rica now

    This is what I like about football - anything can happen. Well, almost anything (I'm pretty sure Brazil and Germany are safe xD).
    There you have your big teams like Spain and England, who are most likely not going to make it to next round.
    And every once in a while some underdog team makes everyone go Wooooooooooooooah.

    Also, does anyone remember that one time the French team refused to train lol? Was it 2010?

    There's always a team that rebels haha!

    Damn, we gotta beat Mexico.
    Ideally, we beat Mexico and Cameroon beats Brazil.

    Realistically, Mexico wins, Brazil wins :-/
