ReiseReise Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 Klose just tied Gerd Muller's international scoring record. Great moment that I never thought I would see coming. Admittedly never thought that 100 + caps would become standart procedure aswell, it is still a great moment for Klose and German football.

ReiseReise Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 Germany at Faeror Isles, 60. minutes played, Germany leads 1-0. So far, the ref has missed at least two penalty calls and falsely called Klose offside twice when he was through on goal. We play pretty uninspired, but damn, this referee pisses me off even more then the way we play.EDIT1: Mueller apparently fouling himself leads to a penalty for Germany. This referee is awful.EDIT2: Retracting the first part of my statement, it was a foul. Second part still stands, though.
Tele-Viper Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 Yeah, sluggish play from Germany but that ref is irritating. Lots of bogus calls so far.
ReiseReise Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 Should be the first European team to do so, shouldn´t they? Germany is one win away from qualifying. Or one Swedish draw against Austria. Hopefully we will keep ourselves from playing a "final" in Sweden by beating Ireland next matchday. Sorry for all the Irish on the board, but I think you guys are out of the second place race anyway? .

Dewar Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 This US/Mexico game needs a goal, or a really bad tackle to make it less boring.
Lazlo Woodbine Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Meanwhile, Venezuela-Peru is a blast, Venezuela are 2-1 up in a high tempo game, looks like some players are starting to get a bit heated too.
RIPPA Posted September 11, 2013 Author Posted September 11, 2013 Honduras just scored to go up 1-0 over Panama So now - if both scores hold - the US is through to Brazil
Dewar Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Okay, I was wrong. The Americans scored, and this game is still dogshit. Mexico appears to be giving zero fucks about this game.
RIPPA Posted September 11, 2013 Author Posted September 11, 2013 I love the running theme that within minutes of Dewar complaining - the US scores Call Clint Dempsey ugly next
RIPPA Posted September 11, 2013 Author Posted September 11, 2013 And Jamaica steals a point against Costa Rica God Bless their little hearts
RIPPA Posted September 11, 2013 Author Posted September 11, 2013 For some reason - Dempsey completely blowing that PK was totally fitting
Dewar Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 I love the running theme that within minutes of Dewar complaining - the US scoresCall Clint Dempsey ugly next I'm going to call that fucking bellend ugly, stupid, shitty and every other possible bad word I can think of, or make up. Someone bet over 2.5 goals. That penalty "effort" totally fucked me. That man deserves the hardest kick to the junk you can imagine.
SirFozzie Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 And it's official, the USA is going to Brazil, and better yet, since Panama scored, Mexico enter the final two games in fifth place, currently in position to miss out of qualifying completely.

As someone who loves watching the World Cup coverage on Univision, it might suck some of the fun out if Mexico isn't in and excited. Also they have better commercials. They have ads for Line, which is cute. Plus all the commercial housewives are super curvy.
SirFozzie Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Status entering the final two rounds USA 16 (Qualified) Costa Rica 15 (Qualified) Honduras 11 (0) --------Automatic Qualifiers--------- Panama 8 (-2) -------Playoff with New Zealand----- Mexico 8 (-2) Jamaica 4 (-6) Final Two rounds of games (Home team listed first) October 11th USA-Jamaica Honduras-Costa Rica Mexico-Panama That's right, basically a winner take all showdown at the Azteca October 15th Costa Rica-Mexico Jamaica-Honduras Panama-USA Wouldn't it be great if Mexico had to rely on the USA to take the playoff spot?
Fat Spanish Waiter Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Too many teams from North America get in. That's fucking unreal. Four teams?
ReiseReise Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Strange to even see the possibility of Mexico not making it. Still, they only need to win their home game against Panama and thinks will be looking very different. Never thought that things would get down to the wire for them in that qualification system.
Death From Above Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Hey where are Canada? Oh yeah. Never mind. God, I would really like to see us in a world cup just once before I die. You wouldn't think that's asking a lot.
