Wyatt Earp Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Wooooohooohoo, what a game, not in the semis yet but tonight was very encouraging
Wyatt Earp Posted June 17, 2009 Author Posted June 17, 2009 Against NZ ? Did you actually watch the game ?
Captain Slow Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Have to agree!! Although NZ was (is) not a very strong team, bafana's team work and passing really impressed! Now all we need is the strikers to finish off and that Tshabalala should not be a sub!!
dirtrider Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Yes I watched the game and I put my money on Japan !
calabash Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 I shall be at Loftus this afternoon to watch USA vs Brazil. Looking forward to it, go the joints rolled..
Flea Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Agree - best performance by the team ever - commitment, teamwork, defence - everything except finishing.As the commentator said - "it looked like Spain, except Spain would have put more away"
Red Zone Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 It was a good game, and at least we have salvage some pride from a win, Spain up next will be a different story I feel. What happens if we draw, do we go through to the quarters?
Thug Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 I thought we played well but the New Zealanders were terrible. Just hope they manage to hold Iraq to a draw otherwise I don't see us qualifying for the Semis.
SwissVan Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 Wooooohooohoo' date=' what a game, not in the semis yet but tonight was very encouraging [/quote'] You must have watched a different game, BBC commentator who I think knows a thing or 2 about soccer was heard to say "Someone needs to show SA where the goal posts are"
AndreZA Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 The only way SA football can get into these kinda competitions is if they host them.
Thug Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 The only way SA football can get into these kinda competitions is if they host them. Don't be so cynical. We've improved dramatically over the past 5 years.
AndreZA Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 Don't be so cynical.We've improved dramatically over the past 5 years. yes, from winning the CAF cup to dropping 20 places in the world standings. Great improvement there.
Nialls101 Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 Glad we won but SA needs to have that killer instinct and finish well. Should have been 5 - 0 if the strikers wore glasses, they mis-kicked 80% of the strikes at goal. Very embarrassing considering how good all the other facets of their game were.
