better team..

rooting for the japs!

chibi samurai wa ganbaru da~!

will follow Japan, GB, Spain and Brazil.. not rooting the teams, just to see some (over hype) stars in action, especially Brazil..

^who?kiyotake?harenvaar?Edward cullen?

since when Brazil is overhype? lol

they get the hype that they deserve.

GB maybe..but Spain and Brazil...hmm i doubt that..

Neymar lol

Reporting in

am watching Japs vs Spain

Goal from dead ball situation

Spain down to 10 men

Japs are really a force to be reckoned with...

spain lose..

congrats to japan

Spain lost? Wow. Got one red card summore.

Imagine kagawa in the lineup......

spain olympic squad cant do tiki taka...that why they lose...

Spain Olympic team ada Alba, Mata and De Gea, two senior team players..

Congrats to both japan teams.

Notice that during the women game thw referee hardly blow tje wistle. Thw game just flowing.

And i think spain was punished because undereatimate the japs. Totally spirited and energetic if not prolific.

currently the team consisting at least 4 players with the 30++mil GBP price tags on their heads. they are super talented players of course.. thats overhype for me..

i missed Brazil and GB games..

watched Spain-Japan.. nice result, im supporting Asian. pressure to Spain, but their groups aint really tough.. they still can go further..

just noticed, why all the team kits put their nation flag on the chest instead of FA crest?

it's olympic. not FIFA world cup.
no assoc. logo or something related is allowed

Egypt wearing different kit last night (Adidas)
this is their official kit (Puma)

Added on July 27, 2012, 12:56 pmhmm disagree with u.

u dont put super talented & overhype in one sentece. just like messi, ronaldo, etc etc.
and it doesnt count as overhype if they still have the discipline to finish off their job

overhype means : TOO many exposure on the media etc etc <like english player... >, but on field KO main totally out.

overhype is not abt the price tag. price tag is between the agent/ club. if they agree the price, means the club Agree with the players' value.
if that's call as an overhype, i bet u can find LOOOOOOOOTSS of 'overhype' player in China & Arabian countries where foreigners was paid beyond anybody else.

ever heard of Dario Conca? i bet u dont (and most of em).
it was revealed that his wages is almost the same amount as Messi & Ronaldo. Yet he's in China.
Yes he might do all those necessary jobs for his team in China, but i dont call him overhype, it's overpaid

HYPE = directly related with media. how the media 'makes him sensational'
just my 2 cents peace no war

Kosovare Asllani is another one

pretty dissapointed with Homare Sawa's form soo far..

any japan vs morocco live streaming links available?

where's alex morgan of USA?!

great game by Neymar. 2 assists, 1 goal.

World class display by Neymar esp in 2nd half.

inb4 it's just Belarus.

Nagai goal, sebab dia dapat pecut sehebat tu. Kalau x tak boleh gol...

memang laju...dia dapat sampai dulu kat bola tu b4 the GK...

dari segi individual skills aku nampak macam Morocco lagi skillful...

Woo HOo! Nippon Banzai!
Kiranya mereka sudah confirm masuk kuarter final kan?

spain such disappointment

sakit ati betul nak cari replay kat utube... bukak satu link, spam, bukak satu lagi fifa punya game....

spain out

kan ada Olympics punya channel tunjuk highlight dgn live streaming. tunggu je la keluar kat situ. full replay pun ada.

tq bro... tak tau plak ade full time... dload yang japan vs spain dlu ....

Spain disappointment
poor ref + poor defending + poor finishing..

supporting Japan right now..

and how many wolrd cup and euro winners in their squad again?


this bring a glimmer of hope to the rest of the world that when Xavi and iniesta retires, they will bring Spain's tikataka invicibility with them.

i think spain is going thru a down cycle after their seniors success...
the Primera Liga is flooded with too many good senior players + imports that youth rarely got the chance to shine..
most end up in the 2nd tier thus affected their game play quality..

then they have to go outside.

Mata,Romeu(?),De gea,they all got the nerve to get out of their comfort zone and went to tougher league(yes i said that.sue me)

betul2.... bahagian tengah tu penting kalauj main style tiki taka... aku tgk full macth spain lwn jpn, tengah mata je yang gerak.... ... tengah tak berapa function... maybe sebab kene pres kaw kaw kot... japan player laju nak mampos, macam tak letih je berlari

i think Honduras player got this quote by Xavi b4 the euro stick on their dressing
room walls & doors as sole motivation


sos

Cuba tengok gol Japan vs Morocco, kalau anda dalam kem Morocco, siapa yg patut disalahkan dalam bolosnya gol tersebut?

Last defender morocco yg tracking Nagai, dan gagal to keep up with his movement and speed?

Keeper Morocco, yg decided to go out from the penalty area to clear the ball but didnt manage to do so?

Apa2 pun speed Nagai ni memang terbaik ah...




This post has been edited by Icahn: Jul 30 2012, 11:58 PM

semua tak salah... nagai punya burst,, mmg gila.... sbb tu la jepaun bleh main lambung atas je bila dapat bola.. nagai kejar macam pelesit

This post has been edited by PVCpipe: Jul 30 2012, 09:18 PM

haha looks like when no xavi or iniesta,,,no more tiki taka already just like how brazil lost samba after the golden squad retires

Kinda like Kuna, only with better ball control and finishing...



This post has been edited by Icahn: Jul 30 2012, 11:58 PM

bg aku salah keeper, keeper tak patut full force keluar habis..just rapatkan kedudukan ke depan petak utk kecikkan angle striker shoot..& not too far from the goal. once Nagai HOLD the ball, he surely needs extra seconds to aim and shoot which, that seconds, cud be vital for the Centreback to trackback.

this is the different between world class GK & decent GK. those split seconds decisions. of course i offer this suggestion AFTER watched the replay for several times.

nagai punya centreback pressure memang mantap.... berapa kali centreback caught of possesion.... dan hujung2 game pon still kejar lagi bola kat centreback.... memang pure determination.

stamina macam tak habis.... agak- agaknya macamane la japan belatih... bukan nagai je yang laju(walaupun aku rasa dia yg paling laju dlm team ni) tapi rata2 player jepun semua laju-lajuy walaupun susuk badan besar.

im supporting Japan or Egypt, but they are clashing in QF.. both teams can avoid Brazil /GB through the final..

team brazil vs team GB in the final...thats what i b predicting

Team GB vs korea....kinda hard to choos btw

hoping it's team GB vs Japan

Hard to see anyone besides Brazil, winning this.

why olympic women no U-23 age limit?

wa lao wey...brazil women out already...what the heck 2 times runners up in 2 previous olympics with great striking line up of marta (5 times FIFA female player of the year) n christiane (golden boot in 2 previous olympics),,,i expect them 2 go through the semis...i hope this wont b the end of samba chick football seen in olympics 2004 n 2008

bcuz women football coverage so little wey...they make women full squad so that it will b more exciting n 2 attract more men viewers 2 watch them play...i watch women football n i notice the stadium does not look full house at all

U mean they lose to the new World Cup champion, Japan??

haha i still dont rate japan s real champion yet...the late equalizer in the last world cup final is pure luck only

This post has been edited by skylinelover: Aug 4 2012, 09:50 AM

lol... up to u then... Japan woman still name as new World Cup Champion....... n they just so "lucky" to defeat Brazil by 2-0.... and the so "lucky" second goal by Japan woman are superb with the beautiful passing.... hope they keep so "lucky"....

Opps.. forget this is Men football thread...

This post has been edited by thetrueone2012: Aug 4 2012, 10:00 AM

like this the competition clashed...olympic and fifa world cup both have the same weightage now.

currently, Olympic Gold probaply worth more than womans world cup..


and most of the players are amateurs as well....

Added on August 5, 2012, 1:19 amdamn brazill need referee help and some diving to win the match...

This post has been edited by aressandro10: Aug 5 2012, 01:19 AM

all Asian final in Japan vs South Korea, anyone? LOL

i predict japan to win the gold... nagai need to be more sharp in front of goal.... brazil is hard opponent, s.k can makan one

japan and korea has start new era where one team can be strong without having any perticular player standing out...

wahahahaha US vs japan women final again...time 2 avenge the world cup final loss 4 the americans what a way 2 reach the final by winning the solid derby this is more solid shite than the manchester derby 2009 in the same stadium

y they dont release full replay of japan vs egypt... i want to download

olympic youtube account got replay. but kenot download 1

Oh, diorang ada cara untuk prevent downloading ke? Guna IDM pun xleh gak ke?

i guna youtube downloader dan firefox video download helper

dua dua pun x leh.

aku download ok je 100m final usain bolt

use what program?

100m sprinting also want download meh? watch no stim also.

flashvideo downloader

got firefox add on so simple.

purposely downloaded 100m just to test

use idm no problem so far

u guys downloading under the "video" tab is it...

im talking about downloading under the "London 2012" tab...

wonder why mexico did not called up hernandez...

Mexico can't get the ball. Japan is a monster. If this the level of their Olympic squad, one should wonder what's their senior squad strength.

U must be forgotten that Mexican won the u17 world cup & 3rd in u20 world cup



Up next Brazil v Japan.

put my money on Brazil,

but hoping some upset from Japan too

This post has been edited by syazwan: Aug 8 2012, 01:57 AM

Japan lost to Mexico liao 1-3

Since they have lost, I'm rooting for Brazil to win against SK so that we can see SK against Japan again like in the Asia Cup.

/my mistake. actually hoping for SK to make an upset against Brazil but jussstt ..maybe juuusst not enough...

Yes, no surprise they came back from behind and Japan never look threatening enough after the equalizer. As an Asian, i'm hoping for Asia vs Asia final. What's more fitting, on English soil. But now they lost.. hopefully South Korea can create an upset although it's quite unlikely.

i can download the japan vs spain match with idm

korea vs brazil now playing?

half time...but if u switch to 801 can watch T team play kedan

i live streaming youtube... i think korea is very good at keeping the ball posession, def, they dont do fancy pass like brasil... i brazil play sambal football.... the goal brazil get is keeper mistake, not really his mistake but that was a nutmeg goal...

both keeper no good.

south korea needs to start to hit on target now

Added on August 8, 2012, 4:02 amdamn 2-0 now.

Brazil v Mexico

This post has been edited by syazwan: Aug 8 2012, 04:02 AM

Mexico ada Dos Santos, Mexican youth world cup winner. Partner in crime dia Carlos Vela xde lak dalam squad walaupun still eligible for being 23 y.o. Overage player diorang pun diorang call up yg hebat2 gak rasanya....

Terkejut gak aku tengok Japan kalah, sebab diorang ni boleh tahan gak power....

japan macam xde gas je kejar bola.... tak macam match sebelum ni...

brazil plak... gol-gol kelam kabut, bola yang kene def korea, reflex balik.. gol pertama je boleh dikataakan lawa skit la... x macam silap def..

to be fair, Korea was never in the game after the first 20 minutes.

Lepas gol kedua Mexico tu, Jepun macam hilang semangat dan tak main usual game diaorang. And after the third goal was conceded, the fight was as good as over. To be fair, I think that second goal by Mexico was very opportunistic and unfair to Japan. Jarang aku tengok team bola mana2 pun score dengan cara sneaky macam tu.

Brazil vs Korea tak tengok, sebab dah masuk Zzzzzz.....

They are quite physical in their play. Let's see if Brazil can samba them out of the gold

OH YEAH BABY GOD BLESS USA women football team what a great bitter sweet revenge 4 the women world cup final loss last year...the western supremacy of women football continues

That first goal was a really careless mistake by the Jap defence...they didn't close in fast enough on the ball when it was going to be sent into the box via a cross. Didn't see the rest of the match though, because I was too sleepy by then.

Anyway, when is the men's final for football? Does anyone know?

haha japan kena bungkus by the koreans again i wonder will the men team seated in the ecomony class FINALLY after this while the victorious silver medalist women team seated in the higher class cabin...this shall teach JFA not 2 fuk around with team NADESHIKO
