Am I just too emotional about Iran? Any other opinions guys?

On that one, I will claim the Fifth Amendment....

Now, as a reasonable man that I am, I will give the Iranians the benefit of the doubt, so no harm done.

As for you being emotional, well you are forgiven, as Soccer tends to bring precisely the best of all of us.... And of course, all in FUN.

I would not discount the Yugos just yet, they would not be an easy team to beat, remember they never really gave up, and indeed those substitutions gave a different look to the team, the difference between being complacent and hungry.

Croatia 3 x 1 Jamaica

BUUUUU HUUUU snif, snif....

Well deserved win by the Croats, played well and did what they needed to do, good effort by the Jamaicans, I am impressed by Hall, never stopped, always tried and very fast player.

Unfortunate goal (for Jamaica) the second one, as the goalie made a terrible mistake, and got surprised, (and short of reaching the ball), however, great shot and concentration by the Croatian striker.

The third goal was deflected by the defender, but the Croat victory was coming as the Jamaican defense slowly became discouraged.

Good victory for the Croats.

A word about the damned English hooligans:

It has been reported that a band of English Hooligans have started their usual riotting and vandalism in the city of Marseille.

One of the things that pisses me off big time is this display of Neanderthalism. I have never been able to put up with this bullshit.

I think this idiots are a bunch of common criminals (REAL ONES), that should be put away, and made pay for their deeds. Frankly I would not give a rat's arse if they were all tied up, bunched together, put on a slowly leaking boat and be sent away to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean where they belong. The human race would be all that much better off without these primates.

The same goes for their Dutch cousins, or any other nationality that shows the same conduct for that matter.

They are a DISGRACE to the sport, their respective families, and their countries. In addition the countries where they came from should be BANNED for TWO consecutive World Cups, I sincerely think that it is the only way this arses will be somehow discouraged from their antics.

A good dose of Chinese justice to these animals would either cure their behavior or obliterate them from this planet.

I SINCERELY HOPE THAT ENGLAND LOOSES ALL HER GAMES, I AM SO PISSED OFF AT THIS IDIOTS !!!!!!!

IF ENGLAND CAN NOT CONTROL HER ANIMALS. THEY DO NOT DESERVE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE CUP. GET THESE ANIMALS, (THE HOOLIGANS), ON A LEASH, AND HAUL THEM TO THE POUND, LOCK IT AND THROW AWAY THE KEY!!!
OR GAS THEM, THE WORLD IS ALREADY OVERPOPULATED ANYWAY.

THEY DESTROY AN EXCELLENT SPORT.

Not to mention private property of people that have done absolutely nothing to these bastards, who go around senselessly destroying things for the sake of destruction alone.
