Indeed. Though it was a 0-0, it was a very interesting game. Though a shame for Uruguay they didn't use the benefits of an extra man, kicked France out of the tournament and increase there own chances.

Plz explain to me why shortening a name - in my opinion like saying Brits - is "SICK"  confused.gif

Or are you in charge of bitching on the - in your opinion - posts that are "moraly" wrong ?<span id='postcolor'>

no ...eating glue is what RalphWiggum is all about. tounge.gif

the reason why 'Jap' (used in context of referring Japanese) is derogatory was becuase it was the word used to refer Japanese in hostile manner. like referring africans with 'n*****'.

shortening name is not a sick behavior, but there are certain words that convey negative connotation. and jap is one of them.

i agree with Jap- ,i meant to post that in another thread where 'Jap' was referred to as racist- but it got locked-

Jap is not a rascist expression unless used in a derogatory way

if you said

"$%^%ing Japs Go Home!" or something

that would indeed be stupid and racist, but just saying 'the Japs drew 1-1 in their last World cup game'

or whatever has no rascist tones to it.

its simply a shortening of the name.

Brit

Scot

Aussie

others are slightly more dubious but not neccessarily derogatory

Yank

Cannuck

Pommie

Gringo

the horrible Hun

ok .....not the last one, that is terribly offensive

well anyway hope that clears it up.

France now has to shoot 2 goals more than denmark in the upcoming match. so if they play 3-1 they are through, if not,.....well they are out: allez a la maison les Bleus! biggrin.gif

Since Cameron player 1-0, it is pretty sure that Germany will advance as leader of its group (and not because I am a patrotic optimist or something). Ireland will be second!

The sheiks fought bravely, but the lions ate them for lunch (more like breakfeast, at least to me... smile.gif )... Now, if only Ireland would loose their next game...

...not that I'd even think that would be possible.

Sweden-Nigeria 2-1. Actually Nigeria deserved to win. The Swedish team played like drunken hippos. No defence organization at all, and the technical skill of the Nigerians was much higher. They just had bad luck.

Anyway I'm happy with the result smile.gif

I am hoping that Argentina beats England. Not because I like Argentina better, but because it will be easier on Sweden if Argentina has qualified when we play against them.

But it looks pretty gloomy for Sweden, if our players don't get their shit togeather. They were lucky today, but that might have been enough against Nigeria, but it sure as hell won't be enough against Argentina sad.gif

Naah, I dont know really. It really could have been a draw instead, but dont think any team were much better than the other; both had lot of luck (ok maybe more visible for the Swedes).

But it was not a bad match of Sweden, even if it of course could be better; the question is - will it be?

EDIT: The Nigerians might be better individually (or at least in man-to-man), but Swedens team spirit and defence saving the midfield is not bad; since we lost the ball all the tim at midfield, the defence had no easy job against those dribblers!

indeed a win is a win wether it be 3 goals 1 goal last minute clincher

sweden looked very comfortable on the ball and the nigerians had their chances but failed to take them,

i must say though it is good to watch these african countries do so well in this world cup some of the best games ive seen has an african or asian team in it and some of the best individual football playing has been done with such players from these teams. This is truley a " world " cup.

it is really open to anyone at the moment

Are you kidding me? They tore through our defences like it was butter. The fact that they failed to materialize their chances is not relevant. The type of defence game play won't have any chance against the Argentinians.

Although spain won 3-1 (and scored all of the goals biggrin.gif ), paraguay deserved to win. 1 on 1, paraguay were unstopable and they were better in passing and etc. but the chances didn't equate to goals. I'm going for argentina, not just because of the money on them, but they are a better side than england
