England it through too.

They had the hardest group...with Denmark a strong opponent...maybe that brasil is the next...hard way
 
Congratulations Guys,

I didn't see the game, don't know how England played, so I'm not going to comment on it ;) . The big problem is the Pantzers team. Never saw a more borring game in my life. Pure luck on a counter attack and they win. I hope the story doesn't repeat. Champs in 90 and 92 playing the worst football. They have "an easy way" to the semi-finals so it could happen. Let's hope we can see at least one great match (I have't seen anyone yet) even if it only happens in the final game.

Cheers,

Yes we (the Panzer team) had an easy...hmmm ...let´s say lucky way through the games..and the next opponent isn´t unbeatable.
 
Hi Master,

Hope I didn't offend using the term Panzer, but here in Latin America as we talk about German football we use this term (just remember Muller ;) ). I try to be honest, in the last 20 years, Germany deserved to win twice in 82 (defeated by Italy (worst than this team was the one in 94)) and 86 (defeated by Argentina, although many would say no (specially the British people :p ) it was a great team. On those both ocassions they really deserved to win, they had good players and a winning mentality,(specially in honor of Rummenigge (for me the best player after Beckenbauer)). There is one thing that I love about The German football, it isn't over till he referee says so (what Portugal didn't do against South Corea :mad: ).

Cheers,

PS: but I still hope they don't win, not because I don't like Germany, but because they didn't show anything to deserve it :p .

Bring On Brasil???:rolleyes: :D

Are you sure? Anyone else see that striking goal they did last game? Where he did that back flip thingy?:D
 
Nice signature :p.

My bet would also be that one, but I will wait till after the match with Belgium. Not playing well, but this team had some good luck when needed. If Brasil Keeps scoring, there defence is no problem, always score one more than your rival and you win. As some of you will remember, the team from 82 was from defence (except the goalie) to attack excelent, but if the luck is not on your side just forget it.

Spain and Senegal also in the 1/4 finals. If Spain survive Italy and they don't have to play again an extra time, I consider them to be abble to reach the final. At least if Camacho doesn't repeat the same mistake he did today against Ireland. Congratulations to Al Irish people for the attitude of the Irish players. Even loosing they stayed cool and played with Honor to reach the more than deserved 1-1. Be aware of Ireland on their way to Portugal 2004. I'm more than sure they will be there.

RW first Belgian goal should have been allowed seen a lot worse in this World Cup.You had enough chances to have won and sent the samba boys back home.Well its up to England now.
 
I did not catch this game since I live in Oz and it was on to late and I had to get early morning the next day,So what was the score how good did each team play when is this Brazil Vs England match going to be on?
 
I don't know who played better, same problem, work. The only thing I know is that I expect to finaly see the best match of the tournament, when Brazil plays against England. I'm not going to to say I go for Brazil, but for the one that deserves and most important plays the best football. That the best team win.

Mexico Out USA to next round against Germany. Lets see how much luck the USA is left over. Tomorrow Italy - Corea, and if corea keeps the winning mentality I don't believe, that Italy Will survive, but you all know how it is playing against Italy. Japan - Senegal, two teams with almost football alike. I don't bet for anyone of the two. Lets wait and see.

Germany are so friggin lucky - they ought to get to the semi's without any probs the teams they are playing arent even comparable.

As for the Danes - I expected them to play much better than the way they performed against England - it was a disappointing match for the danes - didnt expect them to be such push-overs, but im glad they played shit cos we're through to the Quarters, against the brazilians :eek: and friggin germany plays USA :rolleyes:

i want USA to win :D

i want USA to win
oh no ..we are waiting for you (England) in the final :D if you are able to win against the best team of the tournament.(Brasil)

and don´t forget our luck ;)
 
Finally justice,

They should have been out in the first round, if Croatia hadn't lost their last game. As you mentioned Joripe, they score and then they go back to defend their advantage. Fortunately their defence, stopped beeing what it was. I remember some games where they scored in the first 10 minutes and the other team attacked without any succes. As I said, fortunately things have changed and the teams that attack are beeing compensated against the ones that defend.

I don't want to offend any Italian fan, and as you remember, I said that Italy should always play as they played in Italy 90. The players they have now are better than those in 1990 (except Baresi, Italy's defence lost most of it's secureness when he stopped playing for the national team), but they don't play as a team and keep wanting to play the Catanacio (defensive football). I hope from now on the teams learn that the best defence is the attack.

Unfortunally the match I expected to see, Japan - Senegal, is not going to happen. Turkey is a team that is unpredictable and the next rivals have to take care. I would like that Senegal advance to the semi-finals, for the good of football. May this year we see a David against Golias and the story repeats again ;) . Let's wait and see.

Cheers,
