[OFFICIAL] 2007 FIFA Under-20 World Cup Thread [P+R]

[Help?]

Yeah, i just hope that this doesn't hurt the media coverage of the U-20's world cup and of soccer in canada in general. We proved that we got more than enough fans, but we need the teams to perform as well to leave no choice to the media but to talk about soccer.

Looks like Mexico could play Argentina on the quarters. They seem to love pairing up these two countries on competitions lately...

 

[big al]

so we can get a better view

Otherwise known as "ESPNU".

I'm still hoping they'll move it to ESPN like they did with the Brazil game.

Gama is out man broken metatarsel (correct spelling??) im debating if im even gonna watch this game vs chile i dont want to see them play another 90 minutes of football if you can even call it that

 

[Johnny_Big]

My few hopes of getting to at least semi-finals have ended here. Unless Fabio Coentrao suddenly transforms into Messi, which I can't see it happen.

Oh, and Paulo Renato out of the defence please.

 

[MaSsiVe]

well Johnny seems like Paulo Bento is counting on Renato for next season
but after the tournament he's having Bento is likely to reconsider...

 

[Hopeunited]

I don't think Gama has been all that influential so far. He was fairly ineffective relative to his name tag in most of the games. Even the two goals he scored were from set pieces, and apart from that he really hasn't made much difference.

I think Coentrao is a much more important player for your team, or has been.

 

[MaSsiVe]

I keep thinking we should have Helder Barbosa there, I think he's 19...
unless he has an injury or something, I don't understand why he wasn't called up since he really would be the ideal substitute for Gama.

They are mental if they don't. I checked the guide and they have a re-run of the home-run derby on at that same time

 

[MaSsiVe]

Szetela going down :funny:

1-1, match going to extra-time.

in the other match Austria defeated Gambia 2-1

 

[MaestroZidane]

yeah I saw that, was laughing at it. Great closing minutes of the game. was jumping all over the place after the U.S tied the game... Come on you americans, lets win this

 

[Run DMB]

There was no need for that from Szetela. We complain about Latin American teams doing that sort of thing, and now we're guilty of it as well.

 

[juventusita]

thank god they are showing this game on a channel nobody even ******* gets, what a joke

 

[MaSsiVe]

it happens everywhere, unfortunately.

 

[MaestroZidane]

what a game.. 2-1 U.S...
