Darkzzz_ Posted 1 April 2009 Author Posted 1 April 2009 Can anyone that watched the Argentina game tell me if Papa played? Seen him play for Velez a few times, looks a tidy player on occasion.If so, how'd he get on? I'm fearing the worst after hearing that result tbh! Papa played, what more can I say, he was as bad as everyone. I am sure we will see plenty more from him. In a matter of days I have seen a vintage Argentina to one of the worst international displays I have ever witnessed. I am debating doing a hat trick of games and staying up for Brazil. Even they are shite at the moment. You just never know in SA.
Shrenchel Posted 1 April 2009 Posted 1 April 2009 Oh I seeeee...you weren't ruling out they'd use that excuse. Yeah fook knows what was wrong with them. Only saw 15 minutes of it but they were pretty shocking. Maybe Maradona got tempted by the local produce and passed it around the dressing room.
TrickyTrev Posted 1 April 2009 Posted 1 April 2009 Seriously, I don't know what I have just witnessed. Bolivia were class, I can't believe they were second bottom before this, anybody can really beat anybody, but this is beyond a beating, Bolivia spanked them senseless.Well done to them. Were they playing 3 at the back again with Zanetti and Heinze as two of their defenders? That was always going to end in tears.

If I had Sky I'd be staying up. Did the Libertadores all-nighter on many an occaision.

Ecuador should be 2-0 easy. Paraguay, the top team, don't want it at the moment.

Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 1 April 2009 Posted 1 April 2009 I am in bed watching on the laptop, you can't beat a Libertadores session. Love it. LDU / Fluminense were two of the best games of football I've seen in a while. Great final.
Darkzzz_ Posted 1 April 2009 Author Posted 1 April 2009 LDU / Fluminense were two of the best games of football I've seen in a while. Great final. I didn't see it, I heard they were special though. Bugger staying up for Brazil, I think I will struggle staying awake for this second half.
Darkzzz_ Posted 1 April 2009 Author Posted 1 April 2009 Ecuador 1-0 Paraguay They deserve it too, I like Ecuador.
Darkzzz_ Posted 1 April 2009 Author Posted 1 April 2009 Paraguay have levelled it in the 92 minute. 1-1 Good game. Ecuador deserved to win. Chile and Uruguay played out a goaless draw. I was impressed with Chile. Brazil beat bottom team Peru 3-0, I didn't stay awake for that one but will catch the highlights soon.
BoneDog Posted 2 April 2009 Posted 2 April 2009 What was that keepers name who used to play for Paraguay. He was my hero for a while. Used to go up and take the free-kicks that were in shooting range. I had money on him to be 1st scorer in a match in '98 World Cup I think it was. He had one when it was 0-0 and I'm sure it hit the bar! Or just missed by a shave

BoneDog Posted 2 April 2009 Posted 2 April 2009 Chilavert He also played for MTWG beloved Velez. That's him. What a guy! Used to always be Paraguay on Fifa back in the day and try and get free-kicks outside the area so I could take one with him.
Darkzzz_ Posted 2 April 2009 Author Posted 2 April 2009 Just watched the Brazil v Peru highlights, they looked very good.
Darkzzz_ Posted 3 April 2009 Author Posted 3 April 2009 Hernanes played well last night in Sao Paulo's 2-1 victory, quite a good game actually and a very good stream too. I think he could be the next big star to come and play in Europe.
Darkzzz_ Posted 16 April 2009 Author Posted 16 April 2009 Just catching up with the Copa Libertadores highlights from last night, I had to laugh when I seen Maxi Lopez scoring for Gremio, what a flop he was at Barca.
Alexikokopops Posted 16 April 2009 Posted 16 April 2009 Just catching up with the Copa Libertadores highlights from last night, I had to laugh when I seen Maxi Lopez scoring for Gremio, what a flop he was at Barca. But he has lovely hair.
Darkzzz_ Posted 16 April 2009 Author Posted 16 April 2009 But he has lovely hair. I dream of his hair.
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 16 April 2009 Posted 16 April 2009 Managed to catch the tail end of the Sao Paulo / Medellin match, from Colombia, on Setanta last night at nearly 4 in the morning. Sao Paulo lost 2-1 which pleased me, never really liked them, always been a Corinthians man (Corinthians beat SP 2-1 on Sunday ). They also beat a lower league team called Mistro Tres Lagoas 2-0 last night in the Brazilian Cup. Ronaldo's been spaffing the goals in since his move there too. Their next game is on the 19th, the second leg of the league semi-final tie agianst Sao Paulo. Velez managed to beat San Lorenzo 1-0 on Sunday. They're top of the Argie league at the minute. So a good week so far for my Corinthians and my Velez

I think he could be the next big star to come and play in Europe. Hernanes is by far the most talented player in the Brazilian domestic game. How he's only been capped once by Brazil baffles me, he's 23, and Brazil don't exactly have an abundance of midfielders in his mould. Expect the big clubs to come sniffing.

Yes I expect him to be playing in Europe very soon.
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 23 April 2009 Posted 23 April 2009 Watched the game between Sao Paulo and Cali (Colombia) last night. Cali took the lead but quality ultimately told, Dagoberto scored twice to make it 2-1, that's how it finished. Velez beat Arsenal on the 18th, and are still top. Maxi Moralez (who'll be some player) and Hernan Lopez have been getting a few goals between them which helps. Corinthians beat Sao Paulo the day after, in the second leg of the semi. Douglas and Ronaldo scored within the space of two minutes after half time. He's once again confirming his stauts as one of the world's greatest goal getters. Another good week for my South American lot.
Samilktray Posted 23 April 2009 Posted 23 April 2009 Some Mexican team were on Fifa Mundial or whatever its called. Played against Nobby Solanos team in there Champions League thing. Thats my input.
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 30 April 2009 Posted 30 April 2009 Colo Colo / Palmeiras in a bit. Ooo I do love my Wednesday night fix of Libertadores action.
