FORLAN!!!

Fucking awesome goal. The WC needed it mind. I really, really hope France fuck it all up against Mexico tomorrow, because I can't see South Africa doing anything with Tshabalala Gerrarding it every time like he is at the moment. I do like South Africa, I just love Uruguay more.

Edit: Well, they started to prove me wrong after I posted that, but.. still not terribly impressive.

I can't believe people are downplaying Spain in the game. They dominated the game, and if you want to ignore the possession, they had a staggering 20 SHOTS ON GOAL. TWENTY! It's absolutely amazing, and a testament to the goalkeeper, that Spain never scored.

10 of them were even on target. And FYI it was 22. ¬_¬

Switzerland had 3 on target (6 in total). One went in and one hit the post. Who's better?

Surely there ends South Africa's World Cup. :/

[GoGo Yubari]

Oh, fuck that.

[stokeriño]

Imagine the uproar if the striker is later shown to have been offside before the foul was made...

Edit: Just got the replay, and he was definitely onside.

From African hero to stupid cunt in one easy move. Nice one, Kune. ¬_¬

Meanwhile, Diego Forlan may just be my own personal Jesus.

Forlan for the Golden Boot? >_>

[Farmer Reil]

Ahaha. Gotta love Gaxo or whatever his name is. "Waah, I want a penalty too!" *throws self on floor* Unfortunately you have to wait for someone to foul you before you do that, matey.

Edit: Forlan is actually the master of the universe, I'm convinced.

Forlan is destroying them. Legend.

[King Ellis]

Forlan for the Golden Boot? >_>

The way this World Cup is going, he probably doesn't even need to score anymore.

[therockbox]

Do we really need a reference to Manchester United every time Forlan does something?

[Dan]

It's never like 'Fergie got it wrong' either, it's always 'THE ONE MAN UTD DIDN'T WANT!'

In 11 minutes, the sub 'keeper conceded as many as the first choice did in 159 minutes >_>

I was just remembering Italian keeper Pagliuca getting a red in the '94 World Cup the other day. Had no idea he was the only keeper until today to get a red card in a World Cup game.

[Dan]

It's likely an England 'keeper will get sent off this tournament.

Fuck Uruguay for spoiling the party. Praying for some sort of miracle and SA still progressing, even if it is hugely doubtful now.

[Farmer Reil]

What did you want them to do? Lie down and have a nap? That's the only way South Africa were getting near the Uruguay goal... and even then there's no guarantee. ¬_¬

[METALMAN]

My poor little South Africans!

[GoGo Yubari]

At this point South Africa has to, what. Hope that France and Uruguay beat Mexico and they beat France?

Really they needa France draw tomorrow, which would then take it down to the final game, meaning SA would need to beat France and Mexico would need to lose or draw.
