USA - Slovenia

[pecha]

What a beautiful first goal by Slovenia.
WOW
Goalkeeper's reaction, or should I say a lack of one, made it even better.
I don't think they can come back from a 2 goal deficit.

[pecha]

Donovan to the roof of the net right at the beginning of the second half. Keeping hopes alive

[pecha]

and they tied!!!!!!!
both of the goals above the head of the slovenian goalkeeper

USA was robbed of that win. I see no offsides in the replay.... I think the ref should appologize and GM should give everyone brand new Corvettes....

you know....

like when a bad call is made in baseball.

That was fucking bullshit in the second half! Their third goal was legit and Slovenia was the one at fault not the US team. They were robbed!

A. Where is Slovenia?
B. Soccer sucks.

This is when every American that knows nothing of soccer, has never watched a game in his life and does not know of the existence of the world cup becomes outraged.

That call was crappy.

I agree they were robbed, sadly I don't think they'll make it out of their bracket now after seeing algeria play england :/

I heard this once from a fraternity brother who played football for Oklahoma. We were playing a game of four corners soccer at a fraternity retreat.

" Soccer is for foreigners and communists." I almost died laughin my ass off.

AFAIK it's offside when the attacker and defensive player are in the same line, as they were.
But I might be wrong, it's been a while.

World Cup is about PRIDE. In this case Slovenia (2mln people) getting a tie with USA (300mln people).

Maybe USA should learn from Germany - their best player is actually Polish.

I was in Slovenia last week. I know where it is. Also we got fucking robbed!

Slovenia aren't they the ones that butchered the croats in some horrible genocidal massacre?

I knew I remembered seeing something in the news. Serbia, Bosnia, Slovenia, Croatia, all in a massive genocidal war with untold war crimes committed against each other.

As for native americans, I'm pretty sure I was just willingly accepted on a reservation and played cards with a native american while served alcohol by another.

Dude, contrary to what most people think in and outside the US soccer is a big sport in America. I have played soccer since I was 5 y/o and have always enjoyed the sport. If you lived in Europe right now you would be pissed as an American when you go to a pub to watch the game and you see how cool these fuckheads over here think it is to hate on America. My buddy and I were like 2 out of 10 pro-US people watching the game in there. Total in the pub was probably around 100-150 people maybe more. Bottomline is our nation is getting better at soccer and in a few more years with a few more tournaments under our belt I bet we will become a favorite.

Beckham is crap. I wouldn't give shit either way where he plays.

The trail of tears and all that stuff is nothing more than fake anti-American propaganda trafficked to young minds by socialist history teachers in middle schools across the nation.

The American Indians were always living on the reservations and nowhere else in the woodlands of America; when our forefathers built America, they respected the land of the natives (which they dubbed "reservations") and built our great country around them without disturbing them.

well, if it helps any. The vast majority of us still don't care.

Orion I don't care if you ever watch soccer or like the game even. But when USA gets robbed in any sport in any way, it is your duty as an American to get pissed and act outraged.
