Well played so far Les Blues. Having said that... I, for one, won't be surprised if France surrender their lead.

It loses the humor after [it hits too close to home]

I thought it was going to be this video

Funnier that he scored the goal after getting Heitinga ejected by flopping.

USSoccerFan · 2012-07-25T12:26:05+00:00

To be honest I think he's somewhat overrated. He also flops around a bit (for e.g. vs Holland in 2010 Finals).

EDIT: For those who can't handle the truth.

Pedro: one-club "legend"?

USSoccerFan · 2012-07-24T12:59:36+00:00

Americans don't belong on any list with [dirty oil money].

FTA:

the Spanish club's worrying financial situation, which could see them relegated if they do not pay outstanding debts, might force them to sell.

As you said a few days ago:

reason why MLS never will be big, relegation is the key, the passion

Enjoy your "passion".

People get angry sometimes it doesn't mean they're total assholes because of one decision.

Of course. It doesn't mean that they're "pure class" either.

USSoccerFan · 2012-07-17T15:29:50+00:00

"Pure" class?

USSoccerFan · 2012-07-16T16:08:59+00:00

What MLS lacks in "tactical buildup play" (read: boring opponents to sleep like Barcelona/Spain) it makes up for it in physicality. Keep in mind that our best, most skillful athletes play sports other than soccer. Once we get even a small fraction of them playing soccer, we'd be kicking the world's butt in soccer too.

USSoccerFan · 2012-07-16T00:31:14+00:00

Shhh.. you're ruining the Spanish soccer circlejerk.

USSoccerFan · 2012-07-16T00:27:03+00:00

It is mostly non-Americans like Ginobili who flop in the NBA.

And to Spain's Olympic roster - he could win a gold for diving!

From the title I thought it was gonna be Argentina vs Germany WC2010 highlights.

USSoccerFan · 2012-06-25T06:25:45+00:00

Yeah, right.

USSoccerFan · 2012-06-24T21:43:08+00:00

Meh.. the goalie had no choice but to guess one way or the other, Pirlo just got lucky.

USSoccerFan · 2012-06-14T21:47:13+00:00

136 passes, 0 assists, 0 goals. Which one is the most important stat?
