Both of them, when they came on, where brilliant, with excellent plays, demonstrating much more skill and talent than Saviola (who can basically run and do a good pass now and then). I only hope he keeps them off the team, or else Argentina is going to be a tough nut to crack. But the Argentines did reveal one weakness (of sorts): Riquelme. He's brilliant, but the team depends too much on him. If you can mark him well, them the Argentines will probably have a bit of trouble.

What? Saviola was MOTM! He was all over the pitch. He participated in almost all the plays, and the 3rd goal was half his.

Its smart what Pekerman did. Sent in Messi and Tevez in the second half when S&B were very very tired.

And if there is a game to prove that Argentina is not always depending on Riquelme was today's match.

Tomorrow, Italy gets to pound the crap outta you USA fools.

*evil laugh*

The Argentina-Netherlands match is going to be comparable to a friendly match, all that will be decided is who gets to play Portugal or Mexico and I doubt that either one of the teams will give all they can. It also sucks for Ivory Coast that they're out now apart from one unimportant game against Serbia & Montenegro. They deserved some more recognition.

the winner gets an easy game, confidence and it means they can't play Brazil till the finals. They'll both want the win.

That 2nd Argentina goal was immense, the passing especially the last few were incredible. However S&M were not closing them down. They won't be allowed so much time on the ball again in this WC.

Fucken assholes.

Worst game i ever saw, to think i skipped school so watch us play vs argentina.
If i had more money would have killed myself with exessive alchocol, couldnt quite do that with a single beer...

Those fucktards are lucky we dont live in columbia, they would shoot them on the spot!(like that guy that missed the penalty) Worst game i ever saw! Dipshits, Ivory Coast deserved to move from the groups more than we did! They shouldnt even bother coming back....

For some reason i laughed :)

Exept that Serbia is one word :P

Ugh, Mexico played like crap. Sure they had a few chances but wtf, 0-0 with Angola? Not to be disrespectful or anything, but wtf¿?. We're on a thin line, we do have the upper hand, goalwise, but... Oh well, I guess we just have to wait and see what happens with Portugal tomorrow and pray.

Oh yeah, Argentina ftw.

It is actually Serbia And Montenegro already, and the actually had a petition last month to state that Montenegro is becoming his own country.

In next World Cup, Serbia could play against Montenegro.

DECO!

Brilliant goal by the portugese midfielder.

Witness the wrath of Deco, "the Magician"... \o/ ( Iran, plz don't nuke us =| )

Argentinia pwned u all.

Kuller FTW

Brits don't like Mourinho and want Scolari but he won't go... You probably hate Portugal with a passion, right? =P

i didn't want Scolari and don't particularly hate Mouriniho.

The only thing i dislike about Portugal is Ronaldo (cause he's a fag) and Deco (don 't know why he just annoys me)

Deco was born in brazil and nationalized himself a few years ago, so that doesn't count =P

from everywhere, but thats much longer ago.

Some jopkers let their fullback get wide open within 80 seconds.

If Ghana and the US (I'm hopeful) were to win today, things would get very interesting. Goal differential would be thrown out the window and the winners of the third games would go on.

Well Ghana have scored one goal and missed a penalty. Not too sure if it was a penalty but the guy was sent off.

Hell yeah! Go Ghana!

I actually like CR but I'm always rooting for the african teams, except when they have to play against England.

Unless of course there was a tie which would throw goal differential back in.

Ghana owned, even after they screwed up that penalty kick (poor Asamoah).

Let's hope Italy plays just as well.

someone bet me $20 that brazil would beat australia by 5 goals, should be the easiest 20 ive ever made, go ausssie go!

Yes man, that red card of De Rossi was well deserved, He basically attacked the american without shame with the ellbow. Lol at all the blood over his face

US just got a red card. Cleat up late tackle, could have been yellow, but I agree with the ref.
