I heard that one at work and couldn't believe it.

After 1/2 match the Holland-Ivory Coast match is turning out to be good, though some rather unusual referee decisions are taking place.

The orange defense was a mess, but Ivory Coast missed a ton of chances so it evened out. Orange win barely.

African teams aren't doing all that well in these games. 6 matches, 5 losses, 1 draw.

Whoah!

Argentina just slapped Serbia around for 6-0!

Damn. I totally missed the whole match. But great!

I was hoping for a draw for the Ivory Coast. Well, I'm glad they got a goal at least.

Now, is it just me, or what? I've I'd been the Serbian team, and I was down 5-0, I'd say it was time to just bugger off to the pub. I mean, is there any point in staying? If you're getting beaten up, you leave, don't you? Or is it just me?

I've been beaten worse in many matches. You just try to score one bloody goal.

I did play (on the winning side) in a 19-1 game. It was awesome.

Oh please. Australia 31 - American Samoa 0, back in 2001.

That's Serbia-Montenegro

Apparently, it's a combination of a multitude of factors, including injured players and tensions between players (related to the recent dissolution of the state union). At least that's what I've been hearing around here.

Even getting the score to 5-1 is worth a try. Goal differential is a factor.

That's very likely a factor. It must be a difficult time for the players to focus. The team contains players from both countries.
