Belgium v USA (Knockout Stage) Tuesday 1st July 2014

[J Ed]

Poor USA, has been a while coming though

 

[Lo Siento.]

Ha. Second bloody time a team i bet on to win in the 90 battered the goal all game to no effect then scored with their first shot in extra time. Bastards.

 

[ska invita]

still got 30 mins - let see how much the usa believe it now

 

[Zack Murray]

for such a shit chant you guys wouldn't believe how riled up crowds get at the "I believe" chant

 

[Wilf]

Glad we don't have that golden goal.

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

might keep the cam open just in case theres a goal....

 

[starfish]

That looked a sore one.

 

[Lo Siento.]

As determined as US have been, I think Belgium have proved their quality. Stubborn goalkeeper, hard-working opponents making it difficult and you just keep creating chances, bring on fresh players who ask different questions, you give them barely a sniff at the other end and eventually you get the goal.

a good world cup for bearded goal keepers

 

[agricola]

Has all group winners winning their first knockout round matches ever happened before?

 

[Ax^]

fair play to the usa

 

[Zack Murray]

it's all over boys and girls. the USA done did it again in extra time

quite amusing

hard luck

 

[Lord Camomile]

A noble but ultimately gutting defeat - welcome to football, USA.

 

[The Boy]

on the plus side, that dreadful Argentina side should be getting dumped out in the next round.

 

[Ax^]

pfft until they lose a world cup match to penalties they are not really football..

 

[Zack Murray]

as my german exchange student explained to me two years ago in fairly broken english

"soccer! so good......so disappointing!"

Small steps, you can't expect it all in one tournament.

Their time will surely come.

(Could still go to penalties here!)

youd think wouldnt you - except it would be TYPICAL that all of a sudden Argentina burst into playing amazing football

 

[belboid]

Has all group winners winning their first knockout round matches ever happened before?

Nope. Apparently

 

[magneze]

Yep, I fancy Belgium to beat them.

the disappointment is basically the emotion i look forward to with football now

 

[ska invita]

half the fans in that US cam have gone home!

 

[not-bono-ever]

w00t

 

[Eggby]

Great effort by the Americans...actually they're still in this!

 

[editor]

[Ax^]
