OK, anyone to follow the FOOTBALL World Cup?

Post by JamesB »

Come on boys, I know there are quite a few Portuguese out there, and yes a few Alonso's fellow countrymen too... :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :D
So we have an appointment this afternoon, guys, how it will be? :wink:
I'll say Spain 3 - Portugal -1 8)
I see start the thread a bit late, not sure how many Saudii we have here, but surely I know there are a good bunch of Russians, so congratulations for your yestarday victory! :D

I leave for you the comments on Spain's recent coach switch... :roll: er, not that I am short of an opinion, either! :lol:

Coem on germans, italians, english, dutch, brazilians, french, irish, dans, etc of which I know a few of each, let's have a nice Cup thread :D

ups....you accidently switched numbers there, probably Spain 1 - Portugal -3. :)
But I guess no matter how they play Spain and Portugal will win their group. I'm really excited to see germany play on sunday. I try to watch as much as possible. I have the livestream running in the office all the time.
I'm no big football fan but I love Woldcups ans Euros.

I hope we will play against Brazil again. But I guess the Brazilian team has to visit a psychiatrist before the game :)

No let the games begin...olé olé

I don't watch sport. Not even motor racing. To boring. I haven't seen a complete football match since the semi final and final in the 2010 world championship. I happened to be in Spain at the time and thought that it would be interesting to watch them at the local bar to see the reactions.

Although being Brazilian, I would rather follow the RUGBY WORLD CUP or the Volvo Ocean Race.

Hahah! Thanks also to those not willing to watch it, for answering :lol:
But don't be mistaken, guys, there'll be some footballers here. 8)
Orso, you must have had a good serving of reactions, then! :D
Moskie :roll: oops sorry I forgot! nevertheless, ducth like good football usuall, right?

Daniel, nope, I think I wrote it right :mrgreen: but then you're right: it's 1-3, as officially Spain plays as visitor! Germany will also be interesting to watch. And quite a fearsome rival.

Anyway, I face this World Cup with Vettel's sentence still fresh: "Boring, F1? wait for the World Cup" :lol:
OK, now let's watch some ball playing...

Sorry James but I think it will be a Portuguese win this afternoon. :wink:

Seriously, Portugal x Spain sounds the World Cup match, pity it is too early on.

Cheers all football fans around,
