****...World Cup

<p>Definitely agree with the Cote D'avoire sentiment. If CA was in Group D, for example, I am pretty certain they would have advanced.</p>

<p>f*** my f<strong><em>ing country played like S</em></strong> again!!! goddamn it!!!! </p>

<p>How the hell do we tie Angola...I'm going to go shot myself now.</p>

<p>Yeah, the Ivory Coast is a smooth team.</p>

<p>I'm a Croatia fan myself.</p>

<p>Yes! The Ivory Coast is AWESOME...I agree w/ everyone that they are the strongest African team and would've advanced if not for their bad draw...I'm rooting for them next tournament! I esp. love that the govt and rebel army of the Ivory Coast agreed to peace talks just so their team could go to the World Cup...football is awesome! Trinidad & Tobago also put up a good fight yesterday (?).</p>

<p>I'm personally rooting for Germany...Lu Lu Lu Lukas Podolski!</p>

<p>Ivory coast would have definitely made it to the next round if they weren't placed in their killer group.</p>

<p>As a Czech fan, I'm beginning to really dislike US commentators. "Lets hope Ghana beats the Czech Republic"...</p>

<p>Valid point........don't blame you at all for being disgusted.</p>

<p>Go Usa!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>

<p>May the team show up for the game.</p>

<p>Ghana first goal.......2nd minute.</p>

<p>Wow, czechs are losing ..</p>

<p>Red Card? What???? and the kick is no good.</p>

<p>the czechs are out of this game now, now USA win</p>

<p>still plenty of time.........</p>

<p>down a man? no way</p>

<p>psh this game is bs</p>

<p>We have no healthy players left</p>

<p>told you....</p>

<p>its like playing in lunch time... they go up but then don't go back to defend hahaha, they're wayy too tired.. plus without baros and koller... recipe for disaster</p>

<p>Ghana played an awesome, very elegant game.</p>

<p>I noticed that about Czech too...toward the end they all went up so Ghana had so many off-sides...I thought they were just trying their hardest on the offensive since they had nothing to lose...</p>

<p>What was up with waving the Israeli flag, at half-time and after the win? (One of the players from Ghana took it out - a very small hand-size one - and started waving it.)</p>

<p>And if the USA loses to Italy, then Czech and Ghana are tied at 3 (and Italy advances at 6), what happens next? Do Czech and Ghana play again? Or does Ghana play USA and they advance if they win?</p>

<p>I was also reading some commentary and apparently Muntari and Gyan had 2 yellow cards throughout the tournament...what does this mean in terms of their playing in a tie-breaker game?</p>

<p>Thanks. Pretty new to the FIFA rules and whatnot, but am really getting into football now...:)</p>
