Copa America 2011

[Cripps_orig]

This is usually entertaining and always good to see Argentina become a laughing stock.

Not sure if full strength teams will be playing.

Also Spain were invited to play in this when Japan pulled out. That would have been interesting especially as Barcunts, Real, ourselves, Chavs would have a moan. They declined though so Costa Rica are in.

Group A
Argentina
Colombia
Costa Rica
Bolivia

Group B
Brazil
Paraguay
Ecuador
Venezuela

Group C
Uruguay
Chile
Mexico
Peru

[Elreactor]

Well it may be necessary that Argentina play as that laughing stock. Maybe that helps weaken Grondona´s mafia. Then there would be only 20 entire club boards left to eliminate :good:

But beware, if things go wrong, the newly built fences may accidentally open and nothing would stop the outraged mass to charge against the foreign players!!

The only thing I don´t want to see in this cup are Chicharito´s teeth.

PS: The anti argie posts are back, it feels like GW again :wave:

[Cripps_orig]

This starts on July 1st btw

Argentina v Bolivia the first match.

Host country is Argentina as well. They might actually win something for once :lol:

Cant see it tbh. Whats the time difference between Argentina and UK?

[cheesy bites]

Chile Mexico sounds like a tasty clash.

[Cripps_orig]

Will be interesting to see how Uruguay do after a great World Cup.

But Forlan, their best player last summer has had a shocking season apparently.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

They've still got Suarez tbf.

Argentina (http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/football/argentina/index.html) forward Lionel Messi (http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/football/lionel-messi.html) played down an incident in which someone tried to punch him outside a restaurant in his home town of Rosario on Thursday.
"I wasn't even touched," Messi told reporters after a punch thrown by a youth wearing a hoodie failed to make contact.
"I didn't feel a thing and I only found out after all the kerfuffle, it was nothing," Messi told sports daily Ole (www.ole.com.ar (http://www.ole.com.ar)) from Rosario, 300 km north of Buenos Aires.
Messi, on holiday after another brilliant season in which he helped Barcelona win the Champions League, left the restaurant with friends and was surrounded by autograph hunters.
Argentine media, who gave the incident massive coverage, said Messi's aggressor was a fan of Rosario Central, arch-rivals of Newell's Old Boys where the 23-year-old spent his formative years before joining Barcelona some 10 years ago.
"We're taking photos and we see the arm and he dodges it. (Messi) did not react badly, he left walking and got into the (car)," witness Carolina told the TV news channel C5N.
Messi will report to national team coach Sergio (http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/football/sergio.html) Batista on June 8 to begin training for next month's Copa America hosted by Argentina.

Its a miracle the cunt didnt go down holding his face and rolled over 50 times like the scumbag he is

Actually, Ach, Messi is probably the only of the Barcelona players not likely to dive. The Barcelona team as a collective are a bunch of diving cheats but Messi is pretty clean.

[Master Splinter]

Messi doesn't milk it as much as Busquets, Alves, Iniesta, Pedro, etc. but he rolls over a few times every game. It is overlooked though, as the refs and commentators fawn over his every movement. I remember Denilson being booked for a perfect challenge last season after some ref-baiting rolling from Messi. Same thing hapened with Wilshere (or maybe Song) this season.

I'm most surprised that he uses the word "kerfuffle" tbh.

5 Mexico players have failed a drug test

Breaking news on SSN

No idea who the 5 are

[Özim]

Reckon they must have all taken a trip to Colombia before the cup!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

ViiGOYgo_GQ

Messi again. :wacko:

[Boss]

Can't wait to see Diego bhai destroy some South American filth.

For all his numerous fans on here, you still have time to bookmark the below page:

Yesterday we enjoyed the first live game of the NBA final. Amazing This is video http://twitvid.com/0ZNZP

A conoisseur of all sports. :bow:

[Elreactor]

This is amazing too, although in other terms.

Copa America here we go. Enjoy your stay.

PS: of course that the actual Copa America games will be played in the mots advanced stadiums in the world, so no worries.

[Letters]

Not bad I suppose


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Roc2lf6Zek

Not sure if this is the right thread.

[Cripps_orig]

This isnt on Sky.

Its on ESPN

ffs

[Elreactor]

Utter crap so far. Will I finally admit that "main event today" phrase someone used to say each time Brazil was about to play?

Maybe, plus they have Pato + Ganso to lead their flock to glory :arry:

[Cripps_orig]

Forgot about this

Argentina held Bolivia to a 1-1 draw

Aguero scored

Colombia beat Costa Rica 1-0

[Elreactor]

Meh another bunch of over rated twats. Main event yet to come. Ecuador- Paraguay it is.

Brazil obviously miss their most talented youngster, Neves Denilson. Maybe they consider him when he automatically becomes Arsenal´s best human being by the start of next season, after the exodus of football players from the club.

Not certain that he would have done that much worse than the players on display today.

The funniest, in a cringe-worthy way, thing was listening to the idiots who were doing the Canadian "commentary. For a start they were in a studio in Toronto, commentating on the video feed. Then they spent the whole match bigging up Neymar and how great he was, while slagging off Ganso at every opportunity. Whereas Neymar was unlucky when a lofted ball forward was collected by the keeper, Ganso "yet again wasted possession" when the same thing happened with one of his passes. In reality, neither Neymar nor Ganso did anything to justify their lofty reputations.

[Elreactor]

Ecuador - Paraguay?? 0-0

Outrageous.

[Kaiser]

Chile and Uruguay have to save the Copa America tbh.

[Boss]

Diego bhai will do his best.

Would have been way more entertaining if Japan took part.

[Japan Shaking All Over]

watching Brazil vs Venezuala 0:0 with 5 to go.......time to bring on Denislon?

[Cripps_orig]

I want Paraguay to win

http://www.metro.co.uk/sport/oddballs/868220-larissa-riquelme-vows-to-strip-naked-again-if-paraguay-win-copa-america

[Japan Shaking All Over]

Brazil 0:0

just realised the Lucas that was being mentioned was Liverpool's very own crock of........

no wonder!

[Elreactor]

Brazil 0:0

just realised the Lucas that was being mentioned was Liverpool's very own crock of........

no wonder!

You forgot there was some opposition on the pitch. You can call them Venezuela. :good:

[Elreactor]

Uruguay 1-1 Peru

Chile 2-1 Mexico

These first games have been an insult to Arsene Wenger´s delicatessen.

[Japan Shaking All Over]

You forgot there was some opposition on the pitch. You can call them Venezuela. :good:

Oh yeah them too! and hats off to them
in fact was just unbelieving that Lucas actually gets game time for the guys in yellow!

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Brazil 0:0

just realised the Lucas that was being mentioned was Liverpool's very own crock of........

no wonder!

He was our best player last season.

Which probably says a lot about our season.

[Elreactor]

Colombia is still waiting for Argentina to show up at the match.

What a pile of crap!! :sleep:

Costa Rica must have faith in that they can teach Argentina a lesson. During the game, Messi was on the no-hands phone trying to convince Fabregas to join him at Barcelona.

[Cripps_orig]

Argentina have had a good tournament so far.

They held Colombia to a draw.

Messi surely is the best player in the world

[Elreactor]

The sad thing is they actually held Bolivia and Colombia. But the last one was a completely undeserved point.

Costa Rica just won 2-0 against Bolivia. Wonder what will happen in the next match. Would an Argentina loss mean the fall of the Grondona mafia in the AFA? Doubt it. But at least it would do some harm, so let´s hope Costa Rica can help with the cleaning :good:

[Japan Shaking All Over]

just hope that Argentina waste more energy chasing after a lost cause.......means players will come back to Europe knackered and fit to drop

[Japan Shaking All Over]

Ooooh lucky Brazil. . .very late draw

big guns looking more like pop guns

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Falcao scored twice for Colombia. 2-0 at the moment against Bolivia at half time.

[Japan Shaking All Over]

Argentina 90 minutes or bust

[Cripps_orig]

Colombia have won Group A already.

Costa Rica v Argentina still to come.

Could we see a shock or are Costa Rica going to win?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Argentina won 3-0, Aguero with two goals, Di Maria with the other. Messi assist for at least one of them I think, I haven't seen the goals though.

[Cripps_orig]

Chile beat Peru 1-0

Uruguay beat Mexico 1-0

One QF has been decided then. Argentina v Uruguay :popcorn:

Brazil play their final group game today

[Boss]

My cousin scored against Mexico to take Uruguay through :bow: :bow:

Him and Diego bhai to do the business against the cheating scrotes.

[Cripps_orig]

Paraguay drew 3-3 with Venezuela

Brazil won 4-2 v Ecuador

Pato and Neymar with 2 each

The quarter final line up is

Colombia v Peru
Argentina v Uruguay
Brazil v Paraguay
Chile v Venezuela

The final we all want is still on

Uruguay v Brazil :popcorn:

[Kaiser]

Chile to win overall tbh. Against Uruguay in the final, despite a valiant effort from Diego-bhai.

[Cripps_orig]

Peru won 2-0

[Xhaka Can’t]

You are gay!

You are gay!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Tevez. :lol:

If he wasn't going to be welcomed back in to Brazil before...

[Elreactor]

Muslera :yikes:

I feel for Higuain. Great player, deserved more. Hopefully he´ll get it with Madrid against the catalans.

:wave:

[Boss]

Uruguay :bow: :bow:

[Elreactor]

I´m on the verge of admitting that Koscielny + Squillaci >> Burdisso + Milito!

Milito was pathetic.

Batista :haha:

Grondona :pal:

Unfortunately, nothing will change. I don´t think this is enough for the Grandmaster Grondona to resign from AFA.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Brazil are out. Paraguay beat them 2-0 on pelanties.

:haha:

[Boss]

:woohoo:

All set up for Uruguay to walk this in the final.

[Marc Overmars]

Brazil are out. Paraguay beat them 2-0 on pelanties.

:haha:

2-0? :lol:

Oh dear, must have been some shockers in that shoot out.

[Cripps_orig]

How did the "best player in the world" do in this tournament?

[Marc Overmars]

Ronaldo plays for Portugal mate.;)

[KESSLER]

4 out of 4 missed pens :lol:

[Master Splinter]

How did the "best player in the world" do in this tournament?

Dennis Bendtner wasn't there, sadly.

[fari]

now chile are out...wow what a copa

[Elreactor]

Chile being out is the best comfort, after watching Argentina lose the clasico del Rio de la Plata. :)

Brazil missing 4 pks is a plus obviously.

Diego "Cachavacha" Forlán must win this :good:

[Elreactor]

How did the "best player in the world" do in this tournament?

RVP is trying to cope with the idiots wengering around him in Asia.

Also, how come you didn´t call this a "tournament"?? That´s saying quite a lot tbh.

[Japan Shaking All Over]

semi final line up.......= who?

[fari]

paraguay vs venezuela
uruguay vs peru

[Japan Shaking All Over]

paraguay vs venezuela
uruguay vs peru

cheers Fari.......the "who" was an attempt at sarcasm sorry mate!

going for Peru, like the kit!

[Boss]

Uruguay through to the final after two goals from one of the greatest tactical geniuses on a football pitch (Suarez) destroyed Peru.

Paraguay sneak in on penalties. :coffee:

We'll be thumping the scum.

[Marc Overmars]

There was a full blown fight at the end of the Paraguay-Venezuela match. :lol:

[fari]

forlan scored 2 in the final for uruguay. the goals were brilliantly taken and after the match when they were interviewing him he said that both his grandpa and dad had won that cup so it was special for him to do the same...brilliant, brilliant footballer:trophy:

[Marc Overmars]

Forlan is pretty awesome.

There are still some brain dead people who use his stint at United as a stick to beat him with.

[Boss]

Forlan :bow: :bow: :bow:

Scored where it mattered

Wrecked those hoes

Has more international trophies than Messi + Ronaldo combined.

What a man, what a player, what a legend :bow: :bow: :bow:

[Cripps_orig]

FFS

Nothing against Uruguay but wanted Paraguay to win cos some bint promised to strip if they did.

Anyway as fro Uruguay, 2nd most successful South American side ever. Has won as many World Cups as the Druggies and now won one more Copa America as well. Bear in mind they have done so without the influence of drugs.

Argentina :haha:

Messi :haha:

Maradona :haha:

Other drug fuckers :haha:

[Kaiser]

Mate, Larrisa Riquelme is naked all over the Internet. Don't need Paraguay to win to see her get naked tbh.

Also Diego-bhai :bow: He and Suarez are lethal. Not a brilliant game, but that's because Paraguay were pretty shit.

[Cripps_orig]

Pics or GTFO tbh.

Speaking of which, now we are on the new board, are we allowed to post pics up that we werent allowed to on the old board?

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Suarez (:bow:) and Forlan are a pretty damned good partnership.

Just got to find some bubblewrap to get the Cannibal home in. And if Carroll stops drinking for a few seconds a week we might have an equally good striking partnership.

[Elreactor]

Muslera should have won the goalie of the tournament thing. Although Villar also deserved it, his tidy haircut helped imo :good:

Forlan awesome player :bow:

Independiente legend. I wonder how Wenger managed to miss him before he joined Utd. :sleep:

Maestro Tabarez :bow:

[Elreactor]

Peruvian "fan": Daysi Araujo

[Elreactor]

There´s some tit flashing actually that same day, google it and you should find it :good:

Larissa Riquelme looks a lot fatter now.

[Darth Vela]

I think I'm living on the wrong continent.

Disappointed I difn't get to watch more of the games, some idiot decided to put them on at 2 in the morning, mentalist.

[Cripps_orig]

Didnt watch any of it cos ESPN had the rights.

This is the first Copa America ive missed since ive had Sky.

Its a shame. Would have loved to see "the best player in the world" be shite for his country again

[Darth Vela]

Wait, Ivory Coast were in the Copa America?
