How do some countries manage to continue along, even when they lose during the World Cup? Like the U.S: when they played Germany the other day and lost, they still managed to progress, and I think I read it was because some other country lost, as well. Why is that?
I agree with the worse teams jibe.
And disagree with calling the Dutch a bad team, they have won all 4 games with an average of 3 goals a game. The worst teams have been send home so far with Argentina & Brasil still remaining in the tournament, and they are not very good either.
If the best football would win the World Champion should be Columbia so far.
The first three games were played in a group of 4 nations, the best two nations continue to the current knock out phase. A win gives you 3 points, a draw 1 point and lost match zilch. The first sixteen countries lost in the group phase and now 16 continue, then 8, 4, 2 and WC
Generally two wins out of three gets you in the next round. The next rounds do not allow any lost matches, in that case you are out with the exception of the losers of the semi-finales they get to play for place 3 & 4.
That's not what I meant! :) They're far from bad. I'm just pointing out that they don't need to be rock solid world beaters to win. :)>-
Watching the Greece/Costa Rica game now. I was just about to say it was pretty boring, but as I was typing this, Costa Rica just scored. (That's the second time today that's happened. XD)
You've been a busy boy this weekend then.
I have been SHEDMAN this weekend!!! What an exciting life I lead!
;)
Don't know if I can finish this before I go to work - I hope so!
Jackdagger, can you please type something when CR is attempting to score?
Thanks! :)
Its available worldwide.
Ha, UKIP.
Listening to BBC live radio ...
and just read this comment by them on BBC:
Costa Rica defender Oscar Duarte was sent off nearly 45 minutes ago - and he's still played more passes in the game than any of his team-mates.
They are just camped in and around their own penalty area.
CR apparently looking tired and spent.
I won't hate it if Greece wins; they are trying so hard. I just prefer CR and I feel for them.
Lol @Sammm04 thought same when I first saw the name of app.
Greece had five on two on the break and fluffed it, after some pressure from Costa Rica.
I hope this doesn't come to penalties. Both teams have been giving it all they've got, and neither one deserves to lose on penalties.
Don't expect many of these penalties to go in, be surprised if the players have the energy to walk up to take them.
I take that back superb penalties. Go on Costa Rica masterclass in penalty taking!
Glad one of the North American teams advanced.
CR did end up with ten men and thanks to the total inaccuracy of the Greek offensive did survive by sheer miracle. Not a very great match by these middle American football players, but then again they were never really in trouble.
The penalty shoot out was the best thing about the match, too bad about the 120 minutes before that. I loved the comment of the Belgium host who apologized for waking up the remain viewers because the Greek scored in the 92nd minutes and also be the bearer of bad news namely overtime of 30 more minutes of football.

The BBC reported that it is being suggested Barcelona have put pressure on him to apologise if he wants to join them in the transfer window.
I doubt very much he'll be at Liverpool next season.
Who does he think he is? Jaws?
