Re: USA vs Belgium - Allison - 07-01-2014
Belgium will win.
I am happy that the US team made it this far. I applaud them for trying.
I wonder how many of them are actually from the US. I heard that most of the players were from Germany and other countries.

I really think that France and Argentina have looked the best so far!
Messi inform is really helping carry Argentina through and with the upfront talent,you cant say they wont be close to winning. Only the defence will let them down in my opinion.

I hope that Argentina wins the World cup 2014 although I can't predict anything.
Re: USA vs Belgium - May102014 - 07-02-2014
Hahahaha. I read an article yesterday of a restaurant here in America refusing to serve Belgian waffles or something like that. I'm like, "Are you serious?" I didn't know people in my country take this World Cup stuff so seriously. I love watching the World Cup but I'm not a craze fanatic about it. I come across insane comments online when I support another team outside of USA that I am a traitor and unpatriotic and blah, blah. Whatever.

Re: World Cup 2014: News, Schedule, Scores - chairman - 07-03-2014
The final true highlight of this dramatic World Cup for the United States was tantalizingly teasing in what it portends, but heartbreaking in what could have been.
The majestic final touch off the foot of teenage star Julian Green moments after making his tournament debut, a volley past possibly the world's best goalie, gave the USA a late lifeline against Belgium and more vindication for Jurgen Klinsmann's construction of this team -- emphasizing youth and fitness. It indicates a continued bright future for this program. But that perfectly-weighted, arcing ball -- the kind of delivery that usually makes midfield maestro Michael Bradley stand out from every other player in our country -- also a was sad reminder that, had Bradley had more moments like that, and far fewer where he gave the ball away and made uncharacteristic mistakes, this team might still have games yet to play in Brazil.
Mourinho calls for video technology - chairman - 07-03-2014
Jose Mourinho says Arjen Robben sometimes tries to ‘get an advantage’ and has called for video technology to be introduced to help referees. The topic of diving has resurfaced as a major talking point this week after Robben was accused of going to ground too easily to win the Netherlands a penalty in their World Cup match against Mexico.
Robben insists he was tripped for the spot-kick but has admitted to diving earlier in the game, although he will not face retrospective punishment from FIFA. Mourinho knows Robben from his first stint in charge of Chelsea and is aware that occasionally he will look for a penalty or free-kick, but feels the Dutchman is also fouled a lot due to his exceptional ability.
The Blues boss would like players to be more honest but thinks the solution is to allow the officials to use replays to make decisions which would prevent mistakes. Mourinho said: “I think it’s important for the players to help the referees by being honest on the pitch, to try to win the right way. But the reality is that not every player behaves that way and referees have a difficult job.â€

I think it would be perfect to be honest!
Would help avoid stupid pens and avoid diving become an every match occurrence.
