Official Football Thread of Arsenel rolls over Barcelona

[crackdude]

Portugal win 2-0. I'm pretty confident today. Besides, if we don't win we're hardcorely fucked.

[Monkeroony]

We're routing for Portugal yes?

0-0 so far and it's almost half time.

[crackdude]

FUCK SHIT FUCKING GREAT GAME GUYS YOU CUNTS HEY REFEREE HOW BOUT NOT SUCKING COCKS NEXT TIME WHAT THE FUCK FUCK THIS SHIT DANNY IS NOT EVEN PORTUGUESE WHAT THE FUCK IS HE DOING THERE THE FUCKER SON OF A FUCK FUCK

[Orta]

Really poor match from what the radio tells me. I think Portugal were lucky to have drew.

[Orta]

Ronaldo: "We didn't win because we weren't lucky".

:lol:

Not at all. You know how critical our media is. They pressured in the last 2 minutes.
Portugal had a ball in their post, a 30 meter shot by Cristiano Ronaldo.
The referee was full of shit, as it had been 4 years ago against France.

Best portuguese players: Fabio Coentrao, Cristiano Ronaldo, Bruno Alves, Raul Meireles

Worst portuguese players: DANNY, Deco (he was playing in a less deep position because of Danny's sheer stupidity), Liedson

Portugal should have won. But they had a very organized defense and we had trouble achieving penetration.

[crackdude]

Oh! Not to mention we DID SCORE A GOAL. The referee whistled for a foul that does not exist. He was full of shit. This referee is a FUCKER. He always has been the cunt.

[Monkeroony]

Granted I don't enjoy football, am watching it on a 42inch plasma directly to the right of me at work with the sound off, but that was pretty dull.

[crackdude]

Yeah, it was.. sadly.

[Monkeroony]

I thought Portugal was awesome?

Oh well, you guys still have Superbock!

[max_cady]

Portugal was dissapointing. It was clear that Ivory Coast was better at least physically, there were good runners and through most of the 1st half they had 11 players on defense making passing the ball a nightmare for Portugal.

You had a choice to pass to Coentrao and Paulo Ferreira, but after that it would be pointless.

The ref was also a huge jerk. What a weird foul he say and the other one held his head when Liedson just touched his arm, such theatrics.

Queiroz prefers to have ball possession than having players actually take chances.

Suprisingly Ivory Coast in the 2nd half started to lose steam and were starting to allow Portugal to actually move around more, but Portugal was never a threat.

You could tell the Ivory Coast was in much better shape.

Nah, although they have a really high ranking for some odd reason currently.

Brazil ought to provide you some entertainment tonight and if you want to see some good football action, Spain is always a good bet. The Dutch usually are too, but so far have failed to impress.

Keep in mind though, they are using a new ball at this world cup (The roundest ball EVAH!111!!1) and that most teams only had it four weeks prior to train with it, except ze Germans, they've been using it in their league for the last year or so and funny enough, so far they've got the highest winning margin (4-0 against Australia, those Germans do like crushing the dreams of English speaking humans =[ )

I think it was a foul. I was waiting for the bus anyway, so I can't tell for sure.

Brazil is playng well... but I was expeting more goals in this match...

Problem is it wasn't. Bruno Alves and the other dude were struggling for territory, but nothing serious. The ball just went over them. It was a normal dispute, nothing worth of stopping the play, let alone when it was a goal! The referee whistled before Ronaldo touched it in, but it would have been a goal. He was next to the post, the ball went over the keeper and he just directed it in. I think it wasn't offside either.


EDIT:
Danny isn't portuguese either! The worst portuguese players AREN'T PORTUGUESE! wtf deport them! swiftly!

EDIT2:
And I agree with max_cady, though we were a threat, cause we actually scored.
God, I'm so raged by this.
