ChiefsPlanet - Other Sports ~~~~~ The OFFICIAL World Cup 2010 Thread ~~~~~

Got it, I forgot about the extra point Greece will receive from a tie. I'd like to see somebody from Africa do well. I guess I'll be rooting for Nigeria and Argentina to win the second half.

South Korea just scored the first Free Kick goal of this years World Cup.

2-1 South Korea.

What a dumbass challenge in the box. Right in the back of the calves.

Buck	06-22-2010 01:57 PM

Damn I was watching the Argentina game and flipped it back and Nigeria made a penalty. Was the foul legit?

Completely. No hesitation by the referee and even the South Korean defender knew it when he did it.

So far the "undercards" today are outshining the top billed team.

And a Nigerian defender nearly pockets and own goal.

Nigeria just ****ed up.

Hell yea. Screw Greece.

Looks like Argentina scored. Nigeria just missed an open shot on goal that would have put them through if they made it and kept the lead.

They missed a few at the end. The guy who took the PK missed a WIDE OPEN goal in the 6 yard box. The equivalent of missing a dunk.

the French are very dramatic losers...i love it

Quote:

And for Tuesday's finale, Domenech used his last 90 minutes of power to exclude captain Patrice Evra from the lineup. "Tonight it's time for the big apology toward the … French people, because I share the pain of all these French people," Evra said. "What hurts even more is that this apology should have been made yesterday, but my coach stopped me [from] doing it as a captain.

"France will know the truth. There is a cause for all this failure; several things will come out. Then, if people don't want to forgive, at least they will know the truth."

Evra then said the whole squad will "give up all the bonuses. We won't accept a single cent from the World Cup out of shame."
