Well, the lineup for tomorrow is as follows -


South Korea vs. Greece 6:30 ET
Argentina vs. Nigeria 10:00 ET
England vs. U.S.A 2:30 ET


Really pumped that the England/U.S game is actually in the afternoon and not super early like the Greece game. Can't wait to see Argentina and Messi play.

Was it just me or was Aguirre's subs very weird? Vela was Mexico's best player in a creative aspect. Dos Santos had faded by the time the second half came around, and Vela was busy creating chances, trying to test the keeper. I couldn't understand why Blanco didn't replace Dos Santos. I think he bought on Hernandez too late as well. In 15 minutes, Chich got behind the defence more times than Franco did all game lol.

France vs. Uruguay was very dissapointing.

How <Censored> is RIbery? Seriously...so ridiculously over rated.

Yeah Aguirre is an idiot....how do you bring in Mexico's golden boy that late!!!
But somehow I think he has some weird wise logic behind his decision making....I guess we'll see how it works out!

 

[mg91]

Well, I get why he bought on Blanco. He can't run for his life, but he has terrific vision and a great ability to pick a pass.

If he had replaced Dos Santos and Hernandez had come on for Franco at the same time, I think Mexico may have won that game.

But credit to South Africa. They had a gameplan and executed it very well.

Mexico will have to play well in their next game. They caught a break with France and Uruguay drawing.

Ribery isn't super overrated... yeah he had a <Censored> game, but he is a pretty darn explosive player when he is playing well. I like his game a lot actually.

 

[getyappcrnredy24]

that game should have been like 3 to one or 2 in favor of Argentina...Soooooo many missed chances for both teams.

Very true. Messi has had some like outstanding chances to bump their lead up -- but on the other hand Nigeria missed many chances of their own.


I'm so psyched for the U.S/England game.

 

[getyappcrnredy24]

yeah...

anyone else notice that the ball is really weird when it's in the air?

 

[Mooche]

IDK... What do you mean? Like the design on the ball?

USA vs. England

The day has finally arrived....

 

[Mooche]

I got 2-0 England. Should be a good one, though. Good luck to you Americans.

 

[sheed]

Pathetic game by Argentina IMO. Should have won at least 3 or 4 to 0. But they got the win nonetheless. Excited for the USA game. I want to them to win. Even though I don't like USA soccer, I hate England.

 

[elcheato]

First soccer game I'm going to watch in my life.

 

[Dorado]

lol England is gonna rape the US
