Flip Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 I didn't see France holding up Ribery shirts, or Colombia Falcao shirts. It was over the top cheesy sentimentality instead of focusing on the task at hand. Whether it played a part or not in yesterday's clusterfuck of a game (from Brazil's perspective) can't be proven, but it wouldn't surprise me. May as well have waved a white flag. Another one unable to see the point. Did Ribery play in the WC? Did Falcao play in the WC? Did any of those two injure themselves so bad they couldn't even sit in the stadium to watch the game, instead had to be back home to watch it? Neymar left the group that badly injured and that badly devastated that the players felt like doing something for him. Since I live in Sweden I know that the empathy-level in nothern europe is almost non-existent but I swear to god they didn't do this as a way to put him above the team, they did this to show support to a devastated 22 year old kid who missed probably the biggest game in his career.

Those tactics doe All those forwards and it still finished 0-0 Everyone was from London "I must join issue with your correspondent in some instances. First, I assert that of whatever the Scotch eleven may have been composed the right to play was open to every Scotchman [Alcock's italics] whether his lines were cast North or South of the Tweed and that if in the face of the invitations publicly given through the columns of leading journals of Scotland the representative eleven consisted chiefly of Anglo-Scotians ... the fault lies on the heads of the players of the north, not on the management who sought the services of all alike impartially. To call the team London Scotchmen contributes nothing. The match was, as announced, to all intents and purposes between England and Scotland" Didn't want to play the Scots because.... "More than eleven we do not care to play as it is with greater numbers it is our opinion the game becomes less scientific and more a trial of charging and brute force... Charles W Alcock, Hon Sec of Football Association and Captain of English Eleven" Here was our star striker http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3b/Robert_Smith_b1843.jpg/200px-Robert_Smith_b1843.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorJ_01 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 All of this paragraph is amazing :lol: The Scots played two full backs, two half backs and six forwards. The English played only one full back, one half back and eight forwards. Since three defenders were required for a ball played to be onside, the English system was virtually a ready-made offside trap. Scotland would come closest to winning the match when, in the closing stages, a Robert Leckie shot landed on top of the tape which was used to represent the crossbar.[1] At some point in the game, the England goalkeeper, Robert Barker, decided to join the action outfield when he switched places with William Maynard.

aussiemag Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 In the world's continuing mission to completely humiliate Brazil in the wake of its 7-1 World Cup semi-final defeat to Germany, adult site Pornhub has allegedly been flooded with highlights of the game. Footage of the goals bearing the title 'Young Brazilians get f**ked by entire German soccer team' (and other more explicit variants) quickly sprang up following the game (at least according to hundreds of screen grabs on Twiter), with the site eventually asking football fans to cease with the gag while getting a swipe in at Brazil itself. "Please stop uploading the game highlights to Pornhub... Our public humiliation category is full. #BrazilvsGermany," Pornhub wrote. Brazil suffered arguably the worst defeat in World Cup history in Belo Horizonte last night, conceding three goals in 76 seconds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That fucking Neymar shirt and support has no fucking signficance on the outcome, neither would it have had if he played. All of Brazil blacked out for 6 minutes, six darkest minutes in this countries recent history. Now it's time to look forward to the elections in october and hope for a god damn change for once and then the Copa America next year, Olympics the year after, hopefully the Confed the year after that and then the WC in Russia. /rattled marra who will be supporting your team later Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shak Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 I think the over the top focus on Neymar did hurt them tbh Flip. They basically went out there trying to emotion their way to victory and when it didn't go their way they blacked out and shipped 4 goals in the space of 11 seconds (approx.) There was no way they should have been playing so gung-ho, it was footballing suicide. Sorry you had your own Superbowl moment, I'm very familiar with that feel bro.
