Go T&T!

0-0.

Looks like Trinidad and Tobago are doing pretty well.

My favorite neutral team in the tournament so far.

They look very impressive, I must say. I didn't expect them to be able to hold Sweden and I didn't expect them to be able to hold Sweden with ten men. They could of also won that match but thankfully they didn't.

Awful matches in the world cup today until this argentina one, both england and sweden games were horribly boring. Argentina and ivory coast is a good one to end with though

Oh but even if it was a boring game, well done to trinidad for managing a draw with sweden

Nah apparently not, those new balls are supposed to be easier for keepers to read. When a player strikes one of these balls they are supposed to go in the direction the player has kicked. And not float or move during flight, unless the player puts swerve on it himself. All this apparently because there rounder.

Say what? The complete opposite to what you just said has been talked about and proven

Both argentina and ivory coast looking very dangerous teams, both could do very well in the cup

Don't know what game you were watching but the Trinidad - Sweden match was very exciting to watch imo. All of their players put in immense performances and the last ditch tackles, brilliant saves from Hislop and the positive attitude of their manager and players to counter attack made it a good entertaining game.

Yep, it certainly was, it was ashame there were no goals tho. But it was much more pleasant to watch then England vs Paraguay and Poland vs Ecuador, that's for sure.

Oh i dont know, i just found it boring, i probably just expected better, then again after the england and ecuador matches maybe i shouldnt have. There will be far more exciting games to come anyway, that will hopefully be one of the least entertaining

2-1 now in the argie - ivory match, Drogba just pulled a goal back.

by **GOAT** » Sat Jun 10, 2006 9:41 pm

Match just got better again

by **GOAT** » Sat Jun 10, 2006 9:53 pm

Now thats what i call an exciting and entertaining match. Was T&Ts match better than that? Argentina vs ivory coast and Germany vs costa rica the best games so far by a mile

by **Archetype** » Sat Jun 10, 2006 9:57 pm

I see that the Argies took lessons from Drogba for diving. 10/10 Top draw.

Argentina vs Ivory Coast was a brilliant match. Both teams went out and attacked and it was a very entertaining match. I felt Ivory Coast more than matched Argentina and could well have won the match if they had taken their chances.

Still tho, it wasn't bad a for a debut and Ivory will be a tough test to Serbia and Montenegro and Holland. I think Ivory Coast can qualify from the "Group of death".

Nice to see both sides diving and play acting.

Overall the match was won by the team with techincal superiority, experience and flair, it could of so easily been won by the team with no experience, but a big heart and a never say die attitude.

Next stop Mexico. :buttrock
