Scoring an international goal is a huge deal.....especially when it's your first. You celebrate and go nuts with the entire team' date=' and then remember oh poo I forgot to thank this guy for setting me up lol....or he may not even like the guy :eek:[/quote']

Lol. Yea I see what you mean. Both the last goals scored were just utterly amazing series of events before the eventual scorer got an easy-in. You'd think if it was your first goal you'd give a huge thanks to the guy who set you up.

Caught up in the moment of his first goal for his country I would assume....these guys are pros though, they take as much pride in setting someone up as they do in finishing....well I don't know about Ronaldo he never really attempted to set anyone up during games but thats another story....

I suppose I would get the same way in a situation like that. My favorite part is usually the set ups that lead to goals. The Germans definitely work well together, but Argentina has seemed kind of unprepared this match.

Yea during the WC I have a lot of fun watching teams like Brazil, Germany and Spain. The players really look to set up their teammates unlike other teams. I was really disappointed with Ronaldos selfishness for Portugal.....

That second goal Klose got was from an absolutely BEAUTIFUL pass.

Like I said the other day. Germ and Arg are similar when it comes to passing in the final 4th of the field. Only difference is Germ had an acutal game plan. Arg just rolled the ball out there and hoped the talent would prevail.

Just like Brazil.

Seems souind coaching is offsetting the talent nowadays. Which could be good for the US.

      Yep he made the comment " I dont know what they were doing out there at that point" in the press conference. Let's be real they all got paid but they also know his system suppresses there offensive potential.

      Yup the casuals on Facebook ive gotten 85 laughing or angry emojis so far for pointing it out.  The amount of them throwing a fit because the canes were booed is insane

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By woahfraze · Posted

      Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen.
