Italy vs Paraguay

[nicksonic]

oh dear, buffon off at HT.

 

[RaverDrew]

Unless you count Jerome Boateng's transfer to Man City last week all Germans are in the Bundesliga (i think)

Best league in the World imo.

The Paraguayans are a really tidy bunch.

The Paraguayans are a really tidy bunch.

definitely, although can they keep it up for the next half an hour?

 

[QueenOfGoths]

hopefully mick will get washed away and no one will notice as his increased droning merges in with the vuvuzelas.

He is the football equivalent of Geoffrey Boycott, he will be prefacing his comments with "Dear, oh dear!" soon.

 

[Lord Camomile]

I hope this, and the France performance, is providing a little perspective for the ABE brigade.

60 minutes in and the reigning world champions are losing 1-0 to the mighty Paraguay.

 

[belboid]

no they're not

 

[TrippyLondoner]

lucky fucking arsehole cunting fucking cunts

 

[Lord Camomile]

Should have kept my mouth shut

Mr. QofG's blames Italy's goal on the fact that he has just started ironing. They wouldn't have scored if he'd kept sitting on the sofa

 

[nicksonic]

doesn't really change the fact that italy have been totally ordinary.

and quite right he is too!

Lame excuse to get you to do the ironing ?

It's not working

 

[nicksonic]

a decent game, italy fortunate to get the equaliser but i think most paraguayans would've taken a draw before the game started.

the question is: will i be able to sleep for the fevered anticipation of first game tomorrow - slovakia v new zealand!

 

[strung out]

cracking set of matches tomorrow. really looking forward to it

 

[Lord Camomile]

I'd still say that's a worse result for Italy than ours against the USA.

brazil v north korea is definitive world cup

 

[strung out]

and of course, no-one has a clue how good north korea are. they bulldozed their way through qualifying hmm and could be the best team in the world for all we know

 

[George350r]

I left when the game started and came back when it finished.. Did I miss much?

aye, it's only them and Italy that have all their players playing in their home league, y'know...

Shit, i was ironing as well. Sorry.

They weren't fortunate, after Camoranesi came on, Italy were by far the better team.

And The Paraguayans were very lucky, the free kick that led to their goal shoul never have been given.

 

[Fingers]

That was not a bad game at all. Italy woke up towards the end but in no way looked like title holder. The compagna was fairly happy considering that she had written her off Italia from the start and has been actively supporting England

 

[Maltin]

Not all the North Koreans play in North Korea.

England, Germany and Italy are the only teams that have all their players playing in their home league.
