LuckyRVA · Jun 17th, 2002, 09:02 AM

I can't believe it. They are saying in the papers around here that this is the biggest win for U.S. soccer since 1930!

Also, I think it's kind of funny. Most American's could care less about soccer(I've been playing since I was 5) and think it's boring :duck:, but most Mexican's live and breathe soccer(uh sorry I meant football).

boygenius · Jun 17th, 2002, 09:03 AM

Let us get past the Germans first. But those of us who pay attention, it was a fabulous effort by the American side, wasn't it? I'm thrilled. (Not so thrilled with the 2:20am start time on the East Coast, but oh well)

AidenL · Jun 17th, 2002, 09:13 AM

Well done USA......its great for soccer to see you guys doing so well.....

Yurinaut · Jun 17th, 2002, 10:55 AM

I've been keeping up with the World Cup and I can honestly say that after that loss to Poland, I expected Mexico to tear us apart. Oh well, you never know in the World Cup!

Really sorry to see Ireland lose. I've got some heritage there!

Cheers,
Mike

England have to get past Brazil first

c'mon the ENGLAND

Was worth staying up for, but pretty tired this morning. Especially impressive as the US footballers are so lightly supported here. The whizbang jocks are drawn to the many more lucrative sports here, and so the players have to be so much more self-motivated and dedicated.
Getting to the round of 8 should help our program greatly.

Probably should tape the games, but its just not the same when you already know the outcome.

Tracker · Jun 17th, 2002, 01:32 PM

Whoo Hoo! USA! USA!

What a great game! I think that's probably one of the best showings Team USA has ever brought to the football field. This team is winning a lot of fans. While most Americans have no idea the World Cup is going on, there's an increasing number staying up all hours to watch the games.

Now we have to wait for the Friday to see if we can get past the German Wall.

KarmanS · Jun 17th, 2002, 02:21 PM

Wow, what a surprise the US got through with much success! They do have the speed, so the Germans have to watch out when they face them on Friday. UK vs. Brazil match is going to be a very good one!! all the excitement, and not much sleep....

WELL DONE USA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Marts · Jun 17th, 2002, 02:56 PM

Well Done USA . Slightly lucky with the deliberate handball???? Could have been a totally different match.

Shame the Mexicans resorted to such obscene tackling.

Now the USA have The Germans . (probably their weakest team for 20+ years)

A good chance the states will make the semi final. shame most americans won't acknowledge such a remarkable achievement.... They are missing out on the greatest team sport on the planet!

Lucky? I think not, referees can't see the hand of God don't you know?

Brad Friedel for President in 2004!

Marts · Jun 17th, 2002, 03:09 PM

Brad Friedel the hero????

Shame about his performance when he played for Liverpool......done a lot better at Blackburn.

In reply to another post, WCF Final is June 30, 4 A.M. U.S. Pacific Coast time (Noon, GMT)

Well, I wonder how Jerzy Dudek got the job at Liverpool, because his performance in goal for Poland was not impressive IMHO.

Marts · Jun 17th, 2002, 03:59 PM

Dennis,

I take it you never saw the sander mistake against Bolton.....

seriously though Dudek has been outstanding in the premiership.
