FIFA World Cup 2010

Oh and:

That's the Daily Star though. It's not really a proper newspaper. Usually the front page story is about Reality TV (pretty much on a daily basis)

Very well said.

but then. Here are the 4 most circulated papers in Europe

1 Bild Germany 3,548,000 German Axel Springer AG
2 The Sun United Kingdom 2,986,000 English News International
3 Daily Mail United Kingdom 2,311,000 English Daily Mail and General Trust
4 Daily Mirror United Kingdom 1,494,00 English Trinity Mirror

These days to be succesful as a newspaper, reality tv and celebrity is the way to go.

 

[craig1985]

Yeah but unlike those, the Daily Mail actually takes it's self seriously.

Allright here we go.
Uruguay vs. South Korea.

Muslera - Maxi Pereira, Lugano, Godin, Fucile - Arevalo Rios, Perez, Pereira - Forlan - Cavani, Suarez.

Jung - Cha, Cho, Jung-Soo Lee, Young-Pyo Lee - Ki, Jung-Woo Kim - Jae-Sung Kim, Ji-Sung Park, Chung-Yong Lee - Chu-Young Park.

Referee is Wolfgang Stark (Ger).

Suarez!
As it had to be:
a goalkeeping blunder.

Suarez!

what happened?

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Forlan crossed the ball into the box from the left, very close to the goalie.
The latter went for the ball and managed to miss it, so it came to Suarez who was completly left alone on the right who only had to tap the ball in, as the goalie tried to get up on his feet again.

 

[The Hitch]

just seen it. Must be hard to take. If i was supporting Korea i would be calling for his head (goalie that is).

THis doesnt look like too good a match though. And after this its Usa ghana.
Its a bit like a rest day today and tomorow the real fun begins with england germany and (argentina mehico?)

 

[Not Riding Enough]

sth Korea's defence was woeful but they were unluck not to score from a free kick a few minutes before that goal.

There are not that many world cup knock out games and only every 4 years so even games like this are worth watching.

 

[The Hitch]

South Korea are playing well. Which reminds me of a conversation on here 2 weeks ago.

Hopefully this will be reminiscent of Germany Saudi Arabia in 2002 and i would think North Korea will be worse than the Saudis were then.

Is this match at altitude?

dont think North Korea is weaker than Japan or South Korea.

Yes they are

 

[icefire]

Korea scores. Will they go to the extra time?

 

[Bala Verde]

Pretty open and entertaining game. S-K in control now, I hope they'll be able to put one in the net. Uruguayans cleverly waiting for the counter.

 

[Bala Verde]

SK scores!!!

 

[The Hitch]

Looks like could be a good match.


This isnt the first time ive seen Suarez be selfish. He has forlan in the middle but he has a hopeless shot.

And its just happened again he could have head down to Forlan for an open goal and he has a weak header nowhere near on target.

 

[icefire]

We can forget Suarez previous mistake

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Lovely goal from Suarez.

 

[The Hitch]

Good goal. Turns out though he (suarez) has stolen contadors nickname- el pistolero. Its a shame. Next theyll be calling John Terry the cannibal – though for him its appropriate.

 

[The Hitch]

oh what a chance for the republic of korea. Wasted

 

[ak-zaaf]

What are those Americans doing during their anthem? It looks ridiculous.

 

[ak-zaaf]

YES! 1-0 by the Ballack Killer!

Horribly defended by USA.

 

[The Hitch]

What are those Americans doing during their anthem? It looks ridiculous.

what did they do?

 

[ak-zaaf]

what did they do?

They faced sideways and had one hand on the shoulder of the guy in front of them and one on their hart.

Jumping the shark: National anthem edition.

 

[ak-zaaf]

Penalty for US. Things could get exciting again.

/edit: 1-1. US looking way better in the second half. Let's see if Ghana can pick it up.

 

[The Hitch]

what a bad miss for bradley. Didnt even look up where the goalie was, and he could have taken a few touches to set himself and move forward. Instead he gives a weak shot into ht egoalies hands.

 

[ak-zaaf]

Ghana scores!
