[bettermirror]

what the feck? sportsnet sched says 5:30 (8:30 est) and yet they are showing the jays in the fecking 6th!

[Chet]

It's not on Sportsnet West. Apparently Rogers didn't realize the Blue Jays were playing today. So the soccer game had to get booted.

Really? The way they have it listed, you guys should be getting it on your local feed. I guess you actually need a digital feed. I'm getting it on West Digital.

People get into the CHAT ROOM and we can discuss the events as they unfold

[DJT]

If anyone wants to chat, I've added the link in the first post of this thread.

Halftime:

Canada 0 Costa Rica 1

30' CR Soto (PK)

PK awarded for "handball" by Bernier that really just hit his shoulder. McKenna argued and got a yellow. A yellow to Hutchinson a few minutes earlier. Both central defenders on yellows.

[Bxl Boy]

One thing to say : I HATE Predergast, the worst ref ever !

After its desatrous world cup, I thought I would never see him again at international level

Else, Canada is doing very well but problems with the last pass and I don't find the duo Leduc - Grande convincing (maybe put Leduc on right and Bernier central). De Rosario is great, Hutchinson too, Gerba always make move the (fast) defense

[Dante79]

I dont like how they are playing!

[Breakwood]

Its all a big conspiracy by concacaf to eliminate Canada from the world of soccer. Hey Fifa can we join the AFC aswell?

[DJT]

Final:

Canada 0  Costa Rica 1

CHAT TRANSCRIPT

First Half

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

I just posted in the thread maybe it will get ppl going

guest: DjinnX:

I have been hearing atiba's name quite a bit on the internet feed

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

http://aovivo.esportes.terra.com.br/esportes/aovivo/futebol/copaoro2005/481-en/narracao-en.htm

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

this is what my source is

guest: DjinnX:

http://www.columbia.co.cr/columbia.asx

guest: DjinnX:

that is the station i am listening to

guest: DjinnX:

I am assuming Atiba is in the middle with all the touches it seems he is getting

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

that page dosent seem to load for me

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

hey It looks like we got more ppl in here now

guest: DjinnX:

that is the radio link

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

22 min » Costa Rica has control of the ball in their own territory using short passes.

guest: DjinnX:

goal?

guest: DjinnX:

Sounds like Costa Rica got one.

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

24 min » Lopez from Costa Rica attempts a shot but fails to make a good connection with the ball and drags the effort well wide.

guest: DJT:

Hutchinson is playing defence.

guest: DJT:

What minute is it on that broadcast? No goal yet on TV.

guest: DjinnX:

I can't tell what time it is on the radio broadcast

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

on the txt update its 24th

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

well the last update was 24

guest: DjinnX:

With the way the commentators yell and shout it is hard to tell what is going on.

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

DJT keep us posted

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

25 min » Costa Rican Ruiz penetrates the box and falls down. He claims he was fouled for a penalty kick but the referee does not buy it.

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

@ least te ref isnt buying the bull ****

guest: DjinnX:

I even heard broken glass sounds and chainsaws. It is insane.

guest: DJT:

On TV it is the 29th minute at 9:04 EDT.

guest: DJT:

PK for Costa Rica (handball in box)

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

txt updates are about 3 minutes off

guest: DJT:

Bad call

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

****

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

common sutton

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

tell me he beckhamed it baggioed it

guest: DJT:

Looks like ball hit his shoulder.

guest: DJT:

Goal.

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

which player

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

who got the hand ball

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

great

guest: DjinnX:

Sounds like the radio feed is ahead of the television feed.

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

I'm about to leave the house as well heres hoping they come back

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

I wouldnt be surprised if it was

guest: Polish_LYNX_Fan:

sportsnet drop the ball with the jays and this game

guest: DjinnX:

Another goal and more cheering

guest: DjinnX:

Costa rica got another one. Damn!

guest: cyclops:

Where's Corrazin when you need him!

guest: DJT:

Radio must be ahead because no second goal on TV yet.

guest: DjinnX:

Must be quite a bit ahead by the sounds of it.

guest: DJT:

Kickoff was probably right at 8:30 EDT, but Sportsnet had to do their pregame stuff (no anthems though).

guest: DjinnX:

They play the oddest sound effects on this radio station. Chainsaws, Broken Glass, random engine noises.

guest: DJT:

BTW, I think it was Bernier who got called for handball (though it didn't actually hit his hand).

guest: DjinnX:

Another poor call that costs us.

guest: DJT:

McKenna argued and got a yellow. Just a couple of minutes earlier Hutchinson got a yellow for a foul just outside the box. Both central defenders are on yellows.

guest: DjinnX:

How is the game looking on TV? Are we getting any possession?

guest: DJT:

Not too much. And we're definitely not creating chances when we do have the ball. 4 offsides already, can't beat the trap. De Rosario has some spark.

guest: Alex:

I hate the central american countries

guest: DjinnX:

I am starting to hear the names DeRosario and Brennan more which is a good sign.

guest: DJT:

Still no second goal, this is way behind - you sure there was a second?

guest: m:

live score says 1-0 at halftime

guest: DjinnX:

They made a huge stink about something and there was cheering.

guest: DJT:

De Rosario was in alone just inside the box but shot over the bar.

guest: DJT:

Best (only?) Canadian chance.

guest: DjinnX:

maybe the radio is behind because i just heard some "Ooohs" and mention of DeRosario.

guest: DJT:

I'll tell you when the half is done and then you'll know.

guest: DjinnX:

I wish I spoke Spanish so I could make heads or tails of what I am hearing here.

guest: m:

the half is over

guest: DJT:

We're having a decent ending to the half.

guest: DJT:

Halftime on TV at 9:23 EDT.

guest: DjinnX:

The game is still going on the radio.

guest: m:

it seems the players are having a few choice words with the referee

guest: DJT:

m, where are you watching/listening?

guest: DjinnX:

I hate the constant yelling. They must have yelled to signal the end of the half.

guest: m:

satellite

guest: busanbhoy:

Prendergast, this is the Jamaican ref no? So far is he professional or CONCACAF?

Second Half

guest: DJT:

Yellow to Gerba for kicking the ball into the net after being called offside. We've had about 6 corners, but not much happening on them.

guest: DjinnX:

I heard some kind of fuss on the radio.

guest: DJT:

Costa Rica has header inside box (off a free kick) hit the bar.

guest: DJT:

Yellow to Costa Rica for diving. This guy dove much worse earlier, but this one was probably actually a foul + some embellishment. Predergast was probably tired of the guy.

guest: DJT:

Yellow to Brennan for a harsh tackle.

guest: DJT:

No flow to the game right now.

guest: DJT:

Hume warming up.

guest: DJT:

Hume on for Gerba. 69th minute.

guest: DJT:

FK for Canada just outside box.

guest: DJT:

Hume kicks it into wall.

guest: DJT:

Canada has most of possession now as CR sit back and defend.

guest: DJT:

Another yellow for McKenna and he's gone.

guest: tyson:

what minute are we in?

guest: DJT:

Canada pressuring, finally get a chance - great save off header.

guest: DJT:

Serioux in for Leduc

guest: tyson:

good... whos leduc anyways

guest: DJT:

87th minute

guest: DJT:

Leduc plays for Montreal Impact

guest: tyson:

i know. i was just being an a-league hater!

guest: tyson:

other subs?

guest: DJT:

Now CR have ball in our end, killing time.

guest: DJT:

Canadian subs were Hume for Gerba and Serioux for Leduc.

guest: DJT:

Peters just came on for Grande.

guest: tyson:

thanks....

guest: DJT:

91st minute

guest: tyson:

a little late on our subs though eh?

guest: DJT:

4 mins to be added

guest: tyson:

why? because CR is rolling around like ticos?

guest: DJT:

Good job by Peters to get cross in, flurry in box, but no good shot.

guest: DJT:

Why 4 mins? When McKenna got his second yellow, Bryce was "injured", wasted a couple of mins, subbed off limping a few mins later.

guest: DJT:

Big Serioux throw in gives Hume shot from close range but hits side of net. Gerry Dobson yelled as he thought it went in.

guest: DJT:

FK for Canada just outside box.

guest: DJT:

From within penalty arc, actually.

guest: DJT:

Hits wall, corner kick.

guest: DJT:

Nothing doing, game over.

guest: DJT:

1-0 final

guest: tyson:

great

guest: DJT:

I think a draw would have been fair.

guest: tyson:

was sutton good in net?

guest: tyson:

i guess ill just check the messsage board later

guest: DJT:

Sutton was fine. Didn't have to do anything special.

guest: tyson:

thanks DJT... those of us stuck at work without TV appreciate the updates
