Gian-Luca Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 So, Canada now has the tall order of knocking Europe right out of the final four altogether. Not every day that you can say that about a World cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were only 6 minutes of ET left when Colombia scored. A real shame--one would think that momentum would have been with them going into ET but, you know, the ball is round. Rooting for the US and Canada now. An all-CONCACAF final--that oughta make for some worried faces around the Darkest Chambers of FIFA...

Three from South America (BRA, ARG, COL), two from CONCACAF (CAN,USA), two from ASIA (UAE, JPN), and only one from Europe (ESP). You can't really make any conclusions, but it's just weird that GER, IRE, or even AUS are not going through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amacpher Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 quote:Originally posted by Jeffrey S. But especially since the teams that traditionally do better on a youth level, such as Brazil, Spain, Argentina, are through and could do damage. And any of those could be considered to be missing more and more important players due to club committments (Diego and Robinho for Brazil, Tevez for Argentina, Fernando Torres, Reyes, and both usual keepers (Valdes and Reina) for Spain). Actually, since the Argentine-season was essentially over before this tourney began (Boca had the title clinched), Argentina were able to assemble a pretty-strong side (including Fernando Cavenaghi who seems to be dominating more in this competition than he does in the Argentine league - which should tell you something about the oppostion).... That;s why I think Argentina is way out of everyone else's league in this tournament.... hmmm... I just don't think Argentina is missing that many players... except for TEVEZ. Like I said - its fun to watch, but common!! Is this tourney telling us that Burkina Faso is producing better (or even remotely comparable) young players than England and Czech Republic?
