What do the soccer fans make of this one.......

**Gypsy Nirvana** · 06-25-2009, 04:04 PM

Yeah....well it's about time that the U.S.A. got good at playing real football...(the game where the FOOT is in touch with the BALL most of the time).....

JJScorpio · 06-25-2009, 04:07 PM

I expected Spain to win 3=0.

The US finally came out and played with some serious heart..... This is what it's going to take to get Americans interested in this sport....

We'll take it seriously when they allow tackling.

Until then............Its for pansies.

There is a new younger generation of Americans that love SOCCER fellas. Its day is coming for the USA.

USA played with their heart twice. Egypt and Spain missed alot of goals too.
USA has come a long way since 1994 World Cup and I believe it has to do with the resources available in the US to young players and the growing popularity of football in the USA.
Proof of this is how the USA has beaten Mexico at many matches in the recent past. It's great to see them get to the final, history in the making for sure. Today Brasil will destroy South Africa, and the final Sunday should be exciting with USA playing the GAME OF THEIR LIVES. Brazil however will show why they are light years better than any team in the World at the moment and will put USA back in their place LOL.

Landon Donovan has been a key player in this tournament, not only does he have a couple World Cups under his belt, but also carries the team with excellent passes and fast sprints towards the goal. Brazil will be champion for the second time in a row though!

Congrats to USA, they played well indeed

**Gypsy Nirvana** · 06-25-2009, 04:25 PM

......oh yeah.....BIG congrats to the USA in beating the Spanish national team.....definately not one of the easiest teams to beat.....

Irie_Lion · 06-25-2009, 04:26 PM

It was a really good match yesterday and Spain missed out on alot of opportunities which couldve kept them in the game. The way they had been playing i thought it was gona be a clean sweep all the way thru for them. Now today is Brazil vs South Africa. I know its a longshot but I'm gona go for the home team and see if they can pull one out like the USA team lol. Would be nice to see some teams in the finals that normally dont get there!! Final score 2-1 SA. Any one else have some predictions?
