Author Topic: WORLD CUP FOOTBALL 2002! Brad Haven Master Film Handler Posts: 300 From: fremantle, West Australia Registered: Aug 2001 posted 06-02-2002 06:55 AM                     Growing up in england, football was part of everyday life for me and now after 21 years of living in australia it's unfortunatly become a part time hobby. Until recently australia had never really embraced football (called soccer in oz), after coming close to getting into the world cup finals on the last two occasions and the growth of our national league, the interest has grown significantly and with it my interest has risen. well, i just saw the england game (vs sweeden) and cant believe that england escaped with a draw , england are a crap team with a few great players , their tactics are negative to say the least and appear to panic when the ball comes near them. I saw the argentina game (vs nigeria) and thought argentina played great football and were unlucky not to have scored more goals , their goalkeeper was impressive!. This competition has only just started and i look forward to seeing some more teams play before i pick my winner!  |  IP: Logged Michael Brown Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1522 From: Bradford, England Registered: May 2001 posted 06-02-2002 07:14 AM                     You said the F word  |  IP: Logged Charles Everett Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: New Jersey Registered: May 2001 posted 06-02-2002 01:26 PM                     Soccernet is wall-to-wall World Cup throughout the tournament. If you get it in English click on "fixtures" for the complete schedule. You can even put a few quid down on your favorite side! USA have their first match Wednesday vs. Portugal.  |  IP: Logged Michael Gonzalez Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 790 From: Grand Island , NE USA Registered: Sep 2000 posted 06-02-2002 05:02 PM                     Football?

England Registered: Jul 99 posted 06-02-2002 06:27 PM                     England's first game was a poor result and no doubt they will crash out by the end of the week!  |  IP: Logged Dave Bird Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 777 From: Perth, Ontario, Canada Registered: Jun 2000 posted 06-02-2002 08:42 PM                        Apparently we (Canada) sent you a player who hails from Calgary Alberta. Heargraves I think it was. Seems his dad was a Brit. Hey, so was my mom, can I play? What else can that get me?  |  IP: Logged Charles Everett Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: New Jersey Registered: May 2001 posted 06-05-2002 09:19 AM                     USA 3 - 2 Portugal Next match for USA is Monday vs. South Korea  |  IP: Logged John T. Hendrickson, Jr Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 889 From: Freehold, NJ, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 06-05-2002 09:07 PM                     Yes! I caught that one live on TV this AM. Exciting match. I coached High School Soccer for 17 years while teaching, and was an NJSIAA official for 15 years. It got into my blood almost as much as projection.  |  IP: Logged Aldo Baez Master Film Handler Posts: 266 From: USA Registered: Mar 2001 posted 06-07-2002 12:10 AM                    This World Cup turning out to be a doozy. First France/Senegal.. then US beating heavily favored Portugal. South Korea winning and looking very good at it, some great great goals and teamplay, too bad about timezones .  |  IP: Logged Brad Haven Master Film Handler Posts: 300 From: fremantle, West Australia Registered: Aug 2001 posted 06-07-2002 06:05 AM                     Luckily for me, we are in the same timezone as the world cup, so for once i can watch the world cup live in primetime. England vs Argentina is on in half an hour, so i'll be off soon!.  |  IP: Logged Dick Vaughan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1032 From: Bradford, West Yorkshire, UK Registered: Jul 2000 posted 06-07-2002 08:39 AM                        ENGLAND 1 ARGENTINA Nil Nothing Zilch ! It's Guinness Time  |  IP: Logged Charles Everett Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: New Jersey Registered: May 2001 posted 06-10-2002 10:36 AM                     South Korea 1 - 1 USA Great work by the American keeper to hold the co-host nation to a draw. Dick V: You weren't aware Beckham redeemed himself after being sent off in France in '98?  |  IP: Logged Dick Vaughan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1032 From: Bradford, West Yorkshire, UK Registered: Jul 2000 posted 06-11-2002 03:30 AM                        Charles Beckham redeemed himself long before the finals , especially when he scored the winning goal against Germany in the qualifiers. Even better news this morning France have just been knocked out and are on their way home.  |  IP: Logged Charles Everett Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: New Jersey Registered: May 2001 posted 06-12-2002 02:49 PM                     England drew and are through to the second round. Argentina -- the pre-tournament favorite to hoist the Cup -- drew and crashed out. USA go through with a win or draw Friday vs. Poland. (Split loyalty here; I'm Polish on my mother's side.)  |  IP: Logged Charles Everett Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: New Jersey Registered: May 2001 posted 06-14-2002 11:28 AM                     Poland 3 - 1 USA BUT . . .
