C-man Posted 29 June 2005 Share Posted 29 June 2005 Should be a great game I think Brazil will win, as long as they play their normal attacking football with Kaka, Ronaldinho, Robinho, Adriano etc.... Anyone else watching? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Libertine Posted 29 June 2005 Share Posted 29 June 2005 4-1 to Brazil Great game, great goals. They combined about 20 passes then planted it onto Adriano's head for the 4th. Good goal by the Argie Bargies too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shen Posted 29 June 2005 Share Posted 29 June 2005 Has it finished? 129681[/snapback] Yup...thoroughly entertaining games...generally an entertaining tournament! Certainly plenty of goals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lush Posted 29 June 2005 Share Posted 29 June 2005 Did ya`all notice the NEW offside law? The ball was played forward, the argies played the offside trap 5 yards inside their own half, a brazil player was """in a offside position""" but hadnt touched the ball (which means he isnt penalised for offside yet). so he runs forward chasing the ball, and once he touched it, the linesman flagged him offside, CRAZY rule, just flag the facker upon the initial incident... To think we pay someone to think up these things... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox Shagger Posted 29 June 2005 Share Posted 29 June 2005 That Cicinho played well with 2 assists. Seems Real Betis are after him but we do have the next best thing in Alan Maybury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lush Posted 29 June 2005 Share Posted 29 June 2005 Stops the argument about whether they're intefering at least. 129743[/snapback] Its stupid. the idea of football is to score goals. when the ball is infront of a striker with only the goalie to beat, which striker on earth isnt going to chase that `goal`? Either flag the facker offside instantly, or not atall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexikokopops Posted 30 June 2005 Share Posted 30 June 2005 What do you mean alex? 129862[/snapback] Well sometimes you get incidents in crowded penalty ares for example where it's not clear if someone's intefering or not. This new rule could possibly avoid confusion there. Hell, I don't even know what I'm talking about anymore, it's too early Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lush Posted 30 June 2005 Share Posted 30 June 2005 It seems only the initial "not interfering players" exists but once that player touches the ball FIRST, he or she is offside. Now, a linesman/woman has to spot all those that are in a non interfering position and then work out whether any player is eventually offside or not, when the ball is eventually touched by a player. As if the linos didnt have it tuff enough, they introduce a rule that requires super strength eye sight. Still, we`ll ""know"" why they`ll be given more of our turnstile money for wages...
