Re: Official World Cup Thread
dutch were thuroughly outplayed. côte d'ivoire got very unlucky not only in this game, but being put in this group.
ref was pretty bad, but he probably didn't change the outcome that much. if the côte d'ivoire had a better goalie, they'd have won this game.
2010 WC in south africa.. will be interesting to watch how côte d'ivoire performs there.
now i'm here, and history is vindicated.

Argentina were absouloutly awesome, FIFA should take a good look at their rankings, 9th???.
I felt sorry for Ivory Coast though I think they deserved at least another goal they played very well, very unlucky.
Re: Official World Cup Thread
Yes.. Unlucky 'cote d'ivoire'.. I think they also outplayed Argentina in their game with it.
"Cry, the beloved country, for the unborn child that is the inheritor of our fear. Let him not love the earth too deeply. Let him not laugh too gladly when the water runs through his fingers, nor stand too silent when the setting sun makes red the veld with fire. Let him not be moved when the birds of his land are singing, nor give too much of his heart to a mountain or a valley. For fear will rob him of all if he gives too much."

Re: Official World Cup Thread
Ivory Coast were really unlucky, they played very well and deserved at least a draw, I felt. It was a good match in general, although the second half was a little less exciting than the first.
