Cobb Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Men's tournament:http://i.imgur.com/Tq8QV.png Women's tournament:http://i.imgur.com/tw7Y1.png Still disappointed and disgusted that the United States U-23 men's team didn't qualify, but at least I get to root for Alex Morgan and the USWNT as they go for that Gold Medal.

Jesse The Body Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 I have Spain winning it all, they are amazingly good from from U-19 all the way up. I mean their U-19 would honestly beat Americas U-23, Spain is loaded with talent and they are scary good for at least 20+ years of amazing. They are so well organized that it won't be a probably to dominate for 20+ years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming they take care of business in the group stage and quarterfinals, the earliest they would potentially face Uruguay or Brazil would be in the semifinals. I'll probably be rooting for Uruguay in the men's tournament, as I've come to really like a lot of their players. The USWNT has their first game tomorrow against France. While we did beat them in the semifinals of the World Cup, it was a close game until late, so a tie wouldn't surprise me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winning Euro 2012, U-19 2012 and Olympics would be epic for Spain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sħãlïq™ Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 Yeah, it'll be between Spain and Brazil. I hope Brazil loses so they could fire Mano Menezes. BTW, the Team GBR jersey looks dope: http://www.lovellsoccer.co.uk/products/12485.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobb Posted July 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 http://i.imgur.com/8oFfm.jpg Didn't get to watch any of the match, but I'm quite impressed with the character of the team. Coming back from a 2-0 deficit in the first half isn't something you see often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YugoRocketsFan Posted July 28, 2012 Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 Olympic soccer is retarded. Only 4 European teams and one of them manages to be Belarus, and then theres crappy teams like Honduras, United Arab Emirates, shouldn't even be considered a real competition.

Cobb Posted July 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 (edited) A vicious and intentional punch today by Colombian player Lady Andrade on Abby Wambach: http://i.imgur.com/DL8rG.gif Her comments afterwards were laughable. She even went on to call the play an accident. "Nothing happened," she said through an interpreter. "It was just a normal part of the game. We were both running, she ran across me and we collided. I had my hands in the air. It was an accident." EDIT - New .gif link.
