Lol at Iran for trying so hard to prevent a goal only to let one through in stoppage time. It wasn't even a controversial goal either, just a good solid kick in the balls.

I think you'll find most people decided to support Barcelona because Messi plays for them - i.e. plastics

I also think you'll find Rippling Muscle Man CR7 is the best player in the world

he's so beautiful why does he have to play soccer perfectly too

Jews fleeing the Holocaust are not in any way comparable to North Africans, who don't flee genocide but want to enjoy the social welfare systems of Northern Europe.
Looks like Ghana changed their goalie from the first game to a guy who sits on the bench in south africa. Müller going to massacre them.

Kroos worked rather good and defied my expectation, so Schweinsteiger getting a bit longer to fully heal is cool.

Ghanas most popular players is from Germany and only plays for Ghana because he knew he would be to bad for Germany. But his brother who is much better plays for Germany.

imo he represents everything worse with modern football, the tiki-taka bullshit, he's riddled with all sorts of "performance-enhancing" poo poo, he's pretty much a surrogate Catalonian

From the wikipedia on tiki-taka: "Tiki-taka is associated with flair, creativity, and touch,[24] but can also be taken to a "slow, directionless extreme" that sacrifices effectiveness for aesthetics.[22]"

These attributes seem like they would make for a more interesting game - and certainly, I found Argentina's play to be entertaining.

As for the doping thing, Messi has GHD and internet sources seem to agree that he is no longer taking human growth hormone. Given that it was for a legitimate disease, I cannot personally hold it against him without further evidence.

Obviously this does not excuse the rest of Barca.

If I should take this discussion to the newbie thread, I would do so happily. However, that thread seems like a joke and i know enough about football that I don't feel quite at home there.

if you know so much about football, you've seen either Spain or Barcelona play and know for a loving fact it does not make a more interesting game, and if you think Lionel "Pukes on the Pitch" Messi isn't still doped to hell, you're wrong
