I get it, I have a good Argentian friend, his entire family are Boca fans... I've tried to watch games with them and it's as much theater as it is soccer imo... Sucks bc they do have talent.

What both of these teams can do with the ball is amazing, I can't explain how much shit I would talk if the US could do just a small percentage of what they can do.

The second half has not been nearly as intense as the first, but this game is still awesome for 0-0.

I want Arg to win. Something about Vidal (maybe its the scumbaggery) I can't stand.

Argentina is skying all their shots!

Here is my theory on the flopping. With how hot it is in South America, you need to flop to catch your breath. You gotta remember these players are running over 6 miles a game, sometimes as many as 9 miles. Or maybe they're just bitches. Probably both.

I also haven't mentioned that I have to watch the game on Telemundo here at work so you know it makes it about 10 times more exciting in Spanish when all you understand is their names and GOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm really surprised how cagey the game got being 10v 10... It opened up in the last ten minutes but it took a while...

Also you dislike Vidal because he plays for a shit, mercenary, club team... ;)

Yeah this has been embarrassing, instead of relying on their quality both teams are doing everything they can to steal it with a weak flop call...

Every time the ref blows his whistle he is surrounded by a bunch of crying ass men!

You have the ball, you know there's only ten seconds left,... Why not throw one last ball in the box there?

Equal to a Jordan air ball to in the final seconds?

Something like that. Maybe missing two free throws when down 1 in the final seconds?

Anyway, that is his first miss ever in a PK shootout.

Congrats to Chile, Argentina may not be allowed back in their own country after two years in a row.

Just think, if club Putos were only 8 goals better against Chile, then,........









Argentina would have beat them by 7.

Messi needs to take lessons from Tori Black on how to not choke on the big one.....

Messi has always hated international play. He had to be practically bullied into ever playing for Argentina. This doesn't surprise me at all.

he's also not really universally adored in argentina. He is mocked frequently and referred to as "The Spaniard" He kinda suffers because he is not Maradona really :|
