Uruguay vs Germany: Consolation game

[IronMexican]

Ehhhh, not that excited to watch it, but I'll catch bits and pieces.

[rascal]

Germany should put on a scoring show.

[urunobili]

Germany 4-2

[DesignatedT]

Uruguay 1-0

[IronMexican]

Uruguay 1-0

I don't think we're gonna see a score this low. Both teams are going to go all out.

[SAtown]

Ehhhh, not that excited to watch it, but I'll catch bits and pieces.

At this point, I'll take ANYTHING other than the stupid Lebron shit. I'm bummed the World Cup is coming to an end

[xellos88330]

What does Paul say?

[easy7]

What does Paul say?

Paul said Germany wins...

[ElNono]

Paul says: lol Italy

[DJ Mbenga]

i wonder if suarez will continue to lick his pinky if he scores

[Streakyshooter08]

Well, Germany intends to give some bench players the chance to play a WC game as a reward for their "team spirit". Some players are also sick (flu). I don't expect Germany to be that good/ dominant but with no pressure both teams should just play a good and fair match.

[Bukefal]

I like both teams, so i dont really care who wins. The Germans are feeling shitty and sad, they came to this tournament to win the thing, they were just focused on the final and now I think they really dont give a shit anymore, the motivation is gone while the Uruguayans are already freakin happy that they made it so far, they have never expected this to come so far and to be part of the 4 best in the world, so I think they will do everything they can to win this game and take that 3rd spot, they are highly motivated. So I think they can beat the Germans because of that. Just because the motivation and the will to win.

[TDMVPDPOY]

doubt the germans give a shit about 3rd placing, it do them good on rankings it they win, but rankings dont mean shit if u dont win any trophy

[sefant77]

Kloooooooooooooooooooooose

[urunobili]

ESPN with a nice Article of why watching the game...

[rascal]

Kloooooooooooooooooooooose

Germany will give Klose many chances at goals.

[IronMexican]

Kloooooooooooooooooooooose

Hope he doesn't score today.

[resistanze]

I heard Klose isn't playing - back injury.

Podolski, Gomes and Lahm all have the flu and are doubtful from what I saw on TV.

[urunobili]

CROFL that hand was as dirty as Suarez's

[sefant77]

daaaamn

[IronMexican]

That was close. Who headed that?

[urunobili]

Muller beastin'

[IronMexican]

Nice reaction gol.

[sefant77]

Müller has 5 goals and at least 2 more cups, interesting.

[Bukefal]

I was wrong before. The Germans do play like they care. I love this German team, such a shame they are out.

[Bukefal]

:wow

[IronMexican]

Nice tackle

[urunobili]

Golazo de Cavani la concha de tu madre!

[sefant77]

lol just germany getting so pissed about getting a stupid goal in such a game

[DesignatedT]

damn. equalized.

[urunobili]

lol just germany getting so pissed about getting a stupid goal in such a game

stupid goal? :rolleyes
I'd say Perez Owning Schwainsteiger and perfect counter attack is a better take... :wakeup

[urunobili]

Suarez being his selfish self ruined our chance to be up 2-1... Forlan would have scored and have as many goals as Muller, Villa and Sjneider if he would have shared the fucking rock... :wakeup

[sefant77]

stupid goal? :rolleyes
I'd say Perez Owning Schwainsteiger and perfect counter attack is a better take... :wakeup

Stupid goal because of that mistake by Schweinsteiger.

[IronMexican]

What a gol

[urunobili]

Ggggggooooooooooaaaaaalllllllllllll!!!!!!!!!!

[TD=HOF]

That was an amazing goal by Forlán!!

[urunobili]

Muslera fuck you :pctoss

[resistanze]

Awesome game.

[IronMexican]

This game has been awesome

[LakerHater]

LoL, GOLLL!!!


Germany,
LoL!!!!!

[sefant77]

how the fuck uruguay made it to the sf with that chicken in the goal?

[TD=HOF]

What an awesome game

[sefant77]

forlan has 6? villa and müller 5?

[sefant77]

özil has to work on his finishing with his left foot

[resistanze]

Awesome game.


This game has been awesome


What an awesome game

Biters!

[IronMexican]

Ozil has dropped 2 turds in a row. I know he was getting set up with all that hype.

[I-Ball]

forlan has 5. like müller, villa, sneijder

[urunobili]

how the fuck uruguay made it to the sf with that chicken in the goal?

I truly don't know... he is a fucking bust i dont feel comfy with him...

[resistanze]

Ozil has dropped 2 turds in a row. I know he was getting set up with all that hype.

Ozil fucked up bad.

[DesignatedT]

wow lol this game.

[IronMexican]

Forlan has about 3-4 spectacular ones, though.

[urunobili]

Muslera gave Germany TWO goals... unreal... :pctoss

[resistanze]

Nice shot by the cheat.

[urunobili]

Perez has given Scheinsteiger the toughest game of the cup in the midfield so far...

[LakerHater]

Crap call!

[urunobili]

Crap call!

agreed

[urunobili]

damn I love Diego Perez

[urunobili]

diving much?

[resistanze]

GoaL!

[urunobili]

CROFL Muslera.... 89% of goals received have been his fault :pctoss

[TD=HOF]

What a heartbreaker

[IronMexican]

This was probably the best game of tournament. Shame it was kind of all for not.


Paul looking good.

[urunobili]

so no more subs for Uruguay? :pctoss

[LakerHater]

Call that & not for Suarez??

[urunobili]

Props to Germany they were the better team :tu

I guess with us giving both Holland and Germany this much of a fight we belong? :depressed

[sefant77]

damnit Paul, why u didnt pick us against spain

[sefant77]

suarez u crappy diver

[LakerHater]

Props to Germany they were the better team


They are but, barely beat Uruguay is funny, kinda sad after everyone praised them!

[sefant77]

lol

[urunobili]

:depressed

[resistanze]

Have to respect Forlan. He's a gem.

[LakerHater]

.....HOW?

.... Forlán?

.... HOW?

[velik_m]

Damn. It would be nice to see OT...

[IronMexican]

Forlan is awesome

[DAF86]

Forlan for best player of the tournament?

[TD=HOF]

Bad ass game, hope tomorrow is more of the same

[urunobili]

:cry

[urunobili]

Forlan for best player of the tournament?

I think at least he should be Bronze ball... IMO at least top 3... he led an inferior team to this instances while Villa and Sjneider are surrounded by stars

[velik_m]

Bad ass game, hope tomorrow is more of the same

Not a chance in hell, tommorow it's win at all cost.

[sefant77]

Suerez screw the karma of Forlan

[velik_m]

Forlan for best player of the tournament?

He has my vote :tu

[Viva Las Espuelas]

great game. i'm surprised germany struggled ever since that argentina game. i guess that was a fluke. oh well. GO NETHERLANDS!!!!!!

[sefant77]

great game. i'm surprised germany struggled ever since that argentina game. i guess that was a fluke. oh well. GO NETHERLANDS!!!!!!

Important players not playing + dissapoitment and giving not 100%

I wonder what uruguay can do 2014....Forlan with 36?

[mudyez]

I think at least he should be Bronze ball... IMO at least top 3... he led an inferior team to this instances while Villa and Sjneider are surrounded by stars

is there gold/silver/bronze ball?

if so I agree with you: Forlan should be at least 3rd with a good chance to go higher!

If Snejder or Villa realy suck tomorrow, Özil or Schweinsteiger could sneak in...but not over Forlan!

Müller for best young player should be a lock now!

[TD=HOF]

Not a chance in hell, tommorow it's win at all cost.

That's why I'm hoping it's not boring

[sefant77]

Müller should be on consideration too. 5 goals and 3 assist

[mudyez]

Important players not playing + dissapoitment and giving not 100%

yeah...that game would have went a totally different direction with mor at stackes than bronze medal.

we didn't even play our best players.

I also think uruguay would have played more defensively...not sure, if thats good or bad for germany!

[mudyez]

Müller should be on consideration too. 5 goals and 3 assist

He should but as he gets the youngster trophy, he will take the backseat to Özil/Schweini for MVP.

[mudyez]

Müller has 5 goals and at least 2 more cups, interesting.

and he isnt even the center striker.

but I think it will be hard to get the 15 goals of ronaldo for any player (except, if one plays 4 worldcups, coz player will play longer with nutrition and so on):
in previous years there have been pretty easy opponents...e.g. the saudi arabia game in 2002 where close scored 3 goals in a 8:0 showcase...in the future it will be hard to get 3 goals in one game and not even owning half of the teams goals!

[sefant77]

Müller has 5 goals and 2 or even 3 cups ahead...i can see him beating Ronaldo. Villa has one cup left.

[DAF86]

Müller has 5 goals and 2 or even 3 cups ahead...i can see him beating Ronaldo. Villa has one cup left.

You can't just assume that Muller will score 5 goals per WC, you don't even know if 4 years from now he will remain at this level. Look at Messi's example, who would have thought that he would go scoreless this WC?

[sefant77]

I meant he has the best chances ;)

[Streakyshooter08]

They are but, barely beat Uruguay is funny, kinda sad after everyone praised them!

You know that this was the 2nd team they played with, right? Some of the best players wer not even playing.

----------------------------------------------------------

Congrats to the really good 4th place to Uruguay!:toast

All in all I am really pleased with the tournament. It was good to develop the young players... especially the Ghana game helped to let the grow under pressure. I think this team can be something special within the next 2-6 years.

Müller 20
Özil 21
Khedira 23
Boateng 22
Badstuber 21
Kroos 20
Schweinsteiger 25
...

I hope Löw stays and keeps developing the team. I was really sad after the Spain loss but all in all losing to the EC champ and maybe even the later WC is really okay. This team has his best years ahead of it.

Who sat out, Miroslav Klose was the only one they kept talkin bout?

[resistanze]

Klose, Lahm (captain), Podolski, Gomez unavailable from bench.

[LakerHater]

Klose, Lahm (captain), Podolski, Gomez unavailable from bench.

Yeah I jus read that but, they said they were missin 5 guys...whos the 5th?

[FkLA]

Uruguay is overrated. I may come off as a hater or whatever, but that couldve easily been Chile/Mexico/USA/Paraguay in the semis if those teams had had the same road. Uruguay didnt face an elite team until the semis and proceeded to lose those games. They deserve praise but this notion that theyre the best team from Conmebol or even close to being the best is retarded.

[Streakyshooter08]

Probably the goalie "Neuer".

They had the chance of going through that road, Mexico by qualifying first in the group (they lost to Uruguay) and USA by beating Ghana.

[ElNono]

lol Muslera
Paul is a stud

[nkdlunch]

first take your homer glasses off. Then realize that 2 and maybe even 3 of Germany's goals were thanks to the Uruguay goalkeeper.

that goalkeeper is a piece of fucking garbage and cost Uruguay the game.

Uruguay would have won easy 3-1 with a decent goalkeeper.

[sefant77]

Müller 20
Özil 21
Khedira 23
Boateng 22
Badstuber 21
Kroos 20
Schweinsteiger 25 (allready 2 WC and 2 EC)
Podolski 25 (2 EC 2 WC)
Lahm 26 (2 EC 2 WC)
Mertesacker 25 (1 EC 2 WC)
Marin 21

I hope Löw stays and keeps developing the team. I was really sad after the Spain loss but all in all losing to the EC champ and maybe even the later WC is really okay. This team has his best years ahead of it.

Its not all the young talent 20-23, its also the main players 25-26 with the experience of 30+ players...

From this team just Klose and Friedrich will mess probably the next WC due to age (36 and 35)

+1

[DAF86]

Uruguay earned his spot in this WC, I will say it once again, Mexico and USA had the chance of going through Uruguay's path they just couldn't do it and against Holland I think Uruguay deserved to win, they outplayed the Dutch even though they were missing several players due to injuries and suspensions, and they lost thanks to a bad call, so I don't know how can anyone say they're overrated, they may not be the 4th best team in the World but they're definitely among the bunch that can fight for the upper places, as they have shown during this tournament.

you answerd your question yourself!

dont want to take anything away from them...its just the way the WC works...I just think, that Brazil, Argentina and maybe one or two other countries would have made the semis over them, if they got lucky and got that road. To tell the truth all of these 4 teams (SoutKorea, USA, Ghana, Uruguay) where pretty much on the same level and Uruguay had a lot of luck.

I like the team...especially Forlan...I was also happy when they made the semis(maybe have been one of only a few germans, that even was for Uruguay against the Africans)! But if someone tells me, that they are the 4th best team in the world, then I have a problem with that.
