^I'll go mental, especially if it goes to a shootout. I might cry myself to sleep for like 2 months.

But, I believe that Cappello is watching the Ghana-Germany game right now. As Ghana has done actually quit well neutralizing the Germans, and hopefully he'll take some notes.

:rofl: That's hilarious. He just sought her out and smacked her on the face. These Algerians are all class, not sure why so many of them want to play on the French team instead...

No offense to Algerians or Italians, or Guido-Jersey-Americans, but the Algerians that were on the field all looked like a bunch of New Jersey type guidos. There fans looked a lot like that too. Kinda surprised me to be honest.

I was surprised as hell too. Always thought of Algeria as an Arab nation.

No they're not. In fact don't be surprised if Australia takes a point or even wins in tonights game.


Told you Serbia sucks. That second half was an epic fail by them.

you do realize that's how arabs dress like? weird retro hairdos. Too much cologne. Expensive jeans. Button up shirts....that aren't buttoned up. So many arabs go to my university and they all dress and look like that.

I was hoping Ozil doesn't do something crazy like that... and he did! That goal will turn a lot more heads and his asking price/competition will go up now.

He's got only 1 more year on his Bremen contract so should be in price range.. Fergie.. sign him up! :evil:

I like Muller more but getting him would be impossible.

I haven't seen people talk about it but where in the world did that game come from in regards to Jozy Altidore. IT was like a light switch went on in his head. One of the best performances of the tourny. I'm ALMOST more excited about his performance than the win.

Starting the second half of our Slovenia game he's been playing like the striker I know he can be. Strong, fast, smart, and technically skilled. It's damn tough to knock him off the ball in a one on one situation so it was great that he was attacking his man constantly against Algeria.

If you're referring to the unintentional handball, no reasonable ref calls a penalty kick for that.
