spain failed to change some players who were getting too old or weren't any good like casillas
they should have changed the coach after the euro champs

the same thing might happen to uruguay, who also have an old coach that refused to change anything even when it didn't work
they call him senile
tabarez should have been replaced after the last copa america

when you win a title usually you have to change something after

the dutch goalkeeper is also terrible
i don't know if it showed tonight (couldn't watch the game) but he could be the one who would make netherlands lose

but white goalkeepers are still the best by far
italy's goalkeeper is perfect (sirigiu), so is france's
joe hart so far hasn't done any mistake, except maybe on a corner kick
ochoa has shined but to be a great goalkeeper you need more than just reflex saves (see casillas for example)
germany's goalkeeper will probably be perfect too

So, even Croatia has a negro (#19)? How the heck did that happen?

about brazil's team, i think that i forgot to mention an obvious case of discrimination
i mentioned that there are no typical white brazilian from the south of brazil in the starting 11

an example of a white player who wasn't even called is filipe luis kirminsky
he's white, from the south of brazil
he was named the best left back in the spanish league: http://www.lfp.es/en/news/the-liga-bbva-team-of-the-season
and best left back of the season in the champions league: http://en.uclratings.uefa.com/Player/TeamOfWeek/

he wasn't even called

the player who starts in his place is marcelo, who lost his place in the starting 11 at real madrid, and plays in the same league as him
filipe luis has won the spanish league this season and was 1 minute away from winning the champions league too
he's said to have signed for chelsea

Funny you mentioned Busquets... he just missed a great chance for Spain to get back into the game.

I don't think I've ever seen Busquets have a good match. I don't understand his appeal.

Speaking of overrated Barcelona players: Alex Song:doh:

What do Barca see in him? They don't have the marketing excuse with Africans because they can't buy anything.

they want some of premier league's "global appeal", probably

they almost never use him
when he signed he was suposed to be part of the starting 11

i am now awaiting FIFA's charge of racism against Croatia for beating Cameroon's black asses so badly. LOL

as for Spain, they played very poorly. i find it hard to understand how out of synch they were. while it's true their players had aged, it didn't appear as if they were too slow but rather that there was a complete communication breakdown within the team, as their normally beautiful passing was abhorrent. i find myself wondering if there was something going on behind the scenes that created dissension in the locker room and thusly on the pitch.

i am VERY pleased with Australia's efforts. they played terrific football, and unfortunately simply ran out of gas over the final thirty minutes against the offensively gifted Netherlands. the 'Roos should have nothing but pride with their performance through the first two games, despite losing. i was happily surprised by their level of play.

Germany looked STRONG. and after Ozil went to the bench, i thought they became much quicker. young Thomas Müller has to be the most underrated attacker in the game today. to think he has already scored 7 World Cup goals at just 24 years of age (and only 1 game into this World Cup tourney) is incredible! also, is there another team in the World Cup with a stronger defense up the middle than Die Mannschaft ? they are making me feel confident for picking them as the team to beat. i hope their stellar play continues as they advance.

It's too bad that Spain has been eliminated from the tournament, but of course this doesn't take away from Spain's past achievements.

Winning the Euros in 2008, the World Cup in 2010, then the Euros again in 2012 was such an impressive run of form. That's wiining three major tournaments consecutively. Correct me if I'm wrong but no national team has ever done this before.

Spain from roughly 2007 to 2013 is perhaps the best football team ever. Their run of form was consistently spectacular in a way that's never been seen before.

I'll always be a Spain fan because they've always been a team of 23 White men. They deserve credit for that. When other countries like England and France are fielding African teams. Spain fielded 23 White Spaniards and won everything.

Now that Spain's gone I'll be supporting BosniaiH, Iran, Russia and Germany. Of course Germany has the best chance to win so Ill probably be pullin for them. The Argies and Italians (22 of 23 players are white) are decent to support as well. I like many of the players on the Dutch team but all their young players are black, Netherlands is going to look awful in the future.

Realistically speaking, there are 2 teams left to root for, Germany and Holland. Holland barely beating Australia today shows that their history of choking in the elimination round (except for 2010) could happen again. So, I'm putting all my eggs in Die Mannschaft basket at this time.

I wasn't too sure about Chile since I hadn't seen their first match, but after watching them today against Spain, too many MS-13 look-alikes for me to root for them. Still not sure about Argentina's make-up, it seems like a darker team this year, but I suppose if Germany or Holland falter, they might be my 3rd choice.

There are several white-heavy teams left, such as Croatia, Portugal, Russia, and Switzerland but they have very little chance of doing any damage, even if they can get out their groups.

I will never root for Italy, sorry. One rotten egg has destroyed the entire bunch for me in this case.

they are not darker
they always had the same mestizo (probably paraguayan from his name) goalkeeper
they got rid of tevez, replaced him with rojo the fullback
so a mestizo striker was replaced by a mestizo fullback
the rest is white, even the players that people will think they are probably mixed are still the same (dimaria has always been in the team, aguero too)

Precisely!
Argentina is the whitest team left in the tournament with a realistic chance of winning the cup.Germany with two non-whites(hopefully,one will drop to the bench) wouldn't be too bad either,I guess.


But Spain were the white hope!:cry:

Yes,all the best Goalkeepers in the world are white,but too many white GK's have let down,this tournament......Netherland's keeper is suspect too.

Neuer,Lloris,Sirigu,Buffon,Hart,Ter Stegen,De Gea,Petr Cech,Thibaut Courtois are all excellent white,dependable goalkeepers.

croatia's second goal came from a bad pass by cameroon's goalkeeper


Yes,I was worried that Afinkeev would be the worst goalie of this tournament,but not to worry,right on cue comes Itandje to the rescue:

Nice find. That’s one of the most preposterous cheap shots I’ve seen at a WC. The little black boy was probably tired of being burned down the pitch by a much faster man. I wonder if FIFA, the world’s premier “anti-racism†(“anti-whiteâ€) advocates in the entire corporate sports realm, will punish this straight-from-the-tree thug?

Not too much to care about in today’s games. In “Group C,†a draw between Ivory Coast and Colombia, or a loss for Colombia, would help Greece advance. Then Greece needs to take care of business against Japan.

In “Group D,†I’d much prefer Uruguay to send England’s cocoa-sodden squad packing today. Sure, Uruguay isn’t perfect either, but at least their squad is a reflection of the racial demographics in their country…

Yes,I think we're all unanimous on this one,Uruguay is whiter than England and therefore we'd all prefer Uruguay to go through.

And Greece really needs to get the job done against Japan,we've lost one white team to many in these early stages.
