Unlike American football and baseball, where you CAN keep the ball, in soccer, you have to throw it back.  Too bad...I'm going to my first match next year in England, and would LOVE to have a ball come my way and keep it!  For sentimental purposes ya know! :)

it's not 'who',it's the socceroos' record in the WC that's the 'history' part. since they hvn't qualified for the WC for 32 yrs,isn't that a disadvantage to them? coz according to "history" they've never had luck in the WC.. so, stuff history.. they're gonna make it regardless of the pessimism against them..i think that's what that ad means.. but don't u think it's kinda cruel? hitting an old man like that, it's not setting any good examples at all.. imagine, the kids watching that.. i feel like it's promoting violence against the elderly..

Rugby players.  Soccer players fall down and cry whenever they're knocked over.

They may not be able to replay the game, but one would think and expect it would certainly be within their power to overturn the result, whether under protest or not. It's just that they wouldn't. Such is FIFA's arrogance at times. They are very lack to accept any criticism or have their decisions questioned.

This is the sort of thing a typical Argie-hater/English person would say when they are scared.. I know this from experience. I and a lot of other fans had the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to shake Diego Maradona and the selections' hand when they came to Sydney in the 1990's for the World cup qualifier against Australia. Needless to say Argentina won, but at the games there were many English fans shouting the same bullshit about the Malvinas and the 'Desaparecidos' of the 1970's, talking political shit just to bring us down because they have nothing else to throw at us.. CHEAP. I also remember as a child attending an endless amount of soccer games in Sydney in the early 1980's(being that my dad played for Independiente Mar del Plata back in the mid to late 60's),again, with Aussies poms shouting out the same shit just to intimidate us.. Holding up huge signs at the entrance to the stadium about the disappearance of thousands of people in Argentina back in the 70's.., about Perontistas and communism and all that other crap that has abosutely nothing to do with Football.. I remember being in the midst of a riot on the streets of Sydney and Argie fans picking up cans and making music and shouting out Argentinian cheers and songs and the police arresting my dad for being hit in the head with a beer bottle, by a group of drunk Aussie and pommie supporters.. calling us wogs and telling us to go back to our own country..lol.... whatever.. And yes i think Argentina has a very good chance of winning. We have numerous players with more potential than hhmm ..lol.. Beckem...lol.. Okay so Maradona messed up.. but has there been anyone like him yet? Has any other player done what Diego did in his prime??? Poms, your are acting scared.. This is a new generation of scared.. a fear that will never leave your blood.. Stop using poilitics for your advantage, this is a sports game, If there is one thing pommy fans lack it is SPORTSMANSHIP, ever heard of it pommies???

Admired him for his stance on corruption, ie 'bungs' to managers and agents. That sort of thing defrauds the fans who pay already over the odds to watch their teams. But female officials?..C'mon! This would only encourage players to display feminine characteristics on the field, like petty tantrums, hair pulling, biting etc, not to mention feigning injury and unmanly kissing and hugging after scoring! It's a MAN'S game, footie!

Some players realise there's more than playing for a "better" club, its called LOYALTY!\n\nIts just a shame that more players dont have any of this and just follow the smell of cash and glory...

why do soccer substitutes wear those yellow adidas or puma overshirts when they are on the bench?\n\nAnswer:\nTo distinguish themselves from the other players and to obey the rules of the soccer game.

Bekham is a wonderful player. He just have to wait for a chance. Everyone is now focusing on the "three lions". David Bekham was once a famous player. It's time to give the other players to shine in the limelight. Bekham should appreciate that he once shone. Yes, he is still 1 of the key players. That's what counts. He doesn't have to be the man of the match. As long as he did what he could for his team, lots of people will appriciate it.\n CHEER UP, DUDE!!!

Its a scorching day, and It was the first game. I dunno about you lot, but I wouldnt be much good running In this heat, after all I`m human like the English players. Theres been so much on the news, In the papers, building England up, all the media hype...you ever heard of the saying " trying to hard to please"? The whole world Is watching, everything they do, or dont do, they know they get slagged off for. I agree, England were`nt all that today, but...3 points Is what matters, As for swapping teams after 1 game, 1, where Is your loyalty? 2, Dont go by the first game. 3,Brazil have`nt even played yet, and If they do and lose to an underdog team, you gonna revert back to England again when It suits you?. I dont think your being a good role model for your son, Its as If to say " England are losing, sinking, lets jump ship" Nonsence....You watch our next few matches....If England get further than you expected or If England win....I hope you tell your son, "Daddy Is a plonker"!!!

Some football factions have an interest in allowing the results of matches to be influenced.\n\nWho's to say some games aren't bought?\n\nWe certainly know that Italian teams in the Sere A can't be trusted 100%.\n\nUntil Fifa actually THINK about what these "footballers" and their antics (diving, checking, looking for free kicks) are doing for the greater good of the game, we'll all just have to accept that teams who exploit the referee the best will ALWAYS win...\n\nAustralia went out there and played fairly, like MEN, and were robbed by a soft decision. If Italy had of earned that match all would be well, but seeing as they could only "win" by fowl means they have lost my respect permanently.

Mourn, oh no there was nothing to mourn even though Brazil did outscore my undeniably gutsy Australian Socceroo's. Because for us they have exceeded all expectation already so we have not stopped celebrating since they first took the field. The celebrations will continue no matter what happens. That is the pride these boys have instilled in us. The celebration was in the fact that no one here was disappointed in the performance or effort given by the team. To not win on points and still have your countries total support and respect is a feat in itself. Many in Australia attended live outdoor coverage at various venues and continued to party hard after the game was over, actually a lot of them would still not be home. Definitely no reason for us to mourn.

It would be a shame to lose the National Anthems - they're a whole part of the tradition of international football matches. Furthermore they're one of the few opportunities people in some countries get to sing their National Anthems.

I think only American football can equal the breathtaking emotion of Soccer matches. Even cricket is not that emotional save for the top two or three teams' fixtures

Excuse me, but not all men like watching footy, i would prefer to read a good book. or come to think of it virtually anything other than watch those overpaid drama queens.
