well, it's confirmed: My first thread is a failure. Maybe the next time.

Don't feel bad, I like soccer too. A little dissapointed that Mexico lost but they at least played well.
I don't see Mexico going too far in this tournament but I'll still root for them.

 

[Darkly Dexter]

well, Mexico lost the Gold Cup but the American Cup begins tomorrow. Maybe you can revenge there and win over United States.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Yeah right

 

[Mee]

I dunno how the U.S. will do in this one with that young roster, and without some of the star young guys like Donovan. We'll see.

 

[Darkly Dexter]

Yeah right

lol you will never end it. don't you?

 

[Badger]

Go USA and Eddie Johnson!!

 

[Darkly Dexter]

Today

Peru - Uruguay

and

Venezuela - Bolivia

 

[DBella]

When does this tournament start. I look forward to it.
Kaka' and Ronaldo won't be playing for Brazil, right? At least that's what I've read. That sucks. But at least I'll get to see Messi... Mr. Maradona Jr.-Hand-of-God goal.

yeah, Ronaldinho niether. But it's just Brazil players, the rest are playing the tournament.

It starts today, Mexico has a good chance considering it's not Brazil's full roster.

So... no Kaka', Ronaldo or Ronaldinho... Have the squad played without those 3 before and if yes, how did they fare?

What team do you pick to win the Cup?

 

[El ASESINO]

GO MEXICO!

 

[DBella]

If Kaka's playing I'd say GO BRASIL, too.
But since he's not, it's between Brazil, Argentina and Mexico for me.

 

[Enriquespy]

Ill root for Mexico... but still, Hugo Sanches disapointed me when loosing THE game vs USA... its always worst if you loose at the finals, the cup was SO CLOSE!!!

Good look México!!!

 

[Darkly Dexter]

First match

Perú 3 - 0 Uruguay

We sucked.

 

[Darkly Dexter]

What team do you pick to win the Cup?

Argentina

 

[Sucram]

Its pronounced football...not soccer -_-

 

[El ASESINO]

Venzuela and Bolivia are tied 1-1

 

[Themanofbat]

I thought the American Cup was a sailing tournament held every 4 years?





Does this tournament affect entrance to the World Cup field of 32?

Go Chilie!!!

 

[Ahura Mazda]

Given the top Brazilian players are giving this a miss I think it could be Argentina's year unless there is some major surprise.

 

[Darkly Dexter]

Second match Group A:

Bolivia 2- 2 Venezuela

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

I can't believe this!
Now SOCCER FANS have their own haven but I can't have a White People one?!?!
This is ridiculous!

 

[DBella]

The Coppa America is not the American Cup. It's better.

Anyhow, I missed all the games played so far but I hope not to miss any games with Brazil, Argentina or Mexico playing.
