France would be out now. But the player of Togo with the most ball contacts in the first half was their keeper!
Problem is that France needs two goals, and their confidence is shot.
You mean short. No, France needs one goal. Switzerlands leads against South Korea right now 1-0.
France scores. It would be in the next round now.
France : Togo 2-0
South Korea needs an equalizer. If I was France, I'd want that second goal and preferably a third to make sure.
No. Switzerland needs to win. I´ve my money on that!!!!
Go France! :-)
Korea Fight chick vs. Swedish "Nasty" tatoo chick.
That's a catfight we all want. :)
Persian pride. Me-owwww.
You can't describle smoldering sultry better.
You keep telling us and each day you come closer to perfection.
Being perfectly wrong. By Saturday you'll have one team left.
I missed the Swedish tattoo chick or else I forgot about her. As a general rule I'm not much on tattoos -- especially on chicks. However, there are always exceptions to every rule and I'm always willing to closely examine any evidence.
She's been posted almost every day. Check yesterday's thread.
Trust me you can't miss her. She's beautiful.
Switzerland has done extremely well. Winning their group on seven poits would be a great result for them. I think they will have a good chance against Ukraine.
Wow, what a mess now. Switzerland´s Frei scores to 2-0, but the side-ref has held his flag up. The ref hasn´t stopped the game and Frei made the goal - the South Koreans are going wild. The slow-mo says it wasn´t offside, so the ref was correct.
Watch for the Koreans to start stomping on their own flags now a la Salt Lake City.
The Swiss would do well against anyone. They've played consistently organized, disciplined and with great team spirit.
And they still haven't given up a goal.
This is the worst officiating I've ever seen. It's unbelieveable bad across the board. Yellow cards, offsides, bad goal rulings.
There's going to be some really pissed off countries Rd. of 16.
LOL. Asians are funny - they cheer up when their teams gets the ball as if their team had made a goal. And when they lose, they´re so desperate.
But you have seen the DECISIVE wrong decisions in the Ukraine game? A missed penalty for Tunisia and a wrongfully given penalty for Ukraine.
Some yellow cards aside, this referee-team hasn´t been that bad. We have the problem, that the ref´s are too strict with the offside rule in this World Cup. The FIFA needs to allow more offense.
