Will Argentina win this FIFA world cup 2014

[sanufdutta16]

In this FIFA WC, I'm getting a strong feeling that Aregntina will win WC trophy! Messi showing his class match after match. What's your thought???

[Victhor]

Despite all your posts / threads looks suspiciously spamming, I'll answer this one since I think I'm the only argentinian on this forum (at least the only regularly active..).. and... because:

I don't think so.

This is how I feel. :P

[Victhor]

And this was one of the last places where people don't talk about football... until now! Hehe

Next Holland Match:

Netherlands vs. Argentina

Wed, Jul 9, 2:00 PM on CBC Sports • Semi-finals

Famous people from Argentina:

Queen Máxima of the Netherlands is the wife of King Willem-Alexander. On 30 April 2013, she became the first Dutch queen consort since Emma of Waldeck and Pyrmont who held that title until 1890.



Who would her majesty be cheering for?

[Victhor]

Good question... I guess we'll never know..

In the meantime, here is a leaked video of how is Netherlands training!

6 hours and 11 minutes left until the semifinals

It promises to be an exiting match. I hope we'll win. We will see. May the best team win.

[Victhor]

And I obviously hope Argentina wins! And if it's also the best team, even better! (in this kind of match, the luck also plays a part..)

[InCUbuS-94]

You can hate me now. And, to answer your question: no.

[Victhor]

I don't know if there is some active Brazilian on this forum... If there is, let's hope he doesn't get in this thread hehe

[Victhor]

Amazing! We are on the finals!!! VAMOS CARAJO!!! We deserved to win during the 90' and in the 120', so for once there was justice in Argentina and we won on the penalties!!!

Our Captain is my own personal hero, long before this game..

[Warrior of the Light]

Congrats!

I hope you win the finals too. I rather see you win than the Germans

[Sabine Klare]

I wish good luck for Argentina. I say it, also if I risk the loss of my next "friends" in Germany (I will count my "friends" in my friends-lists later)...

[Victhor]

Hahaha thanks! That means a lot coming from a german girl! =)
Good luck to you too, I also hope the best team wins, I don't mind if we lose, but only if we deserve it and if it's not for 7-1!

My predictions for the 2018 World Cup:

The finals will be played between Holland and Canada. For this game the field will be covered with ice and the Canadians will be on skates. A modified ball will be used to safeguard against Canadians de-inflating the ball everytime they kick it with their skates. This will be a very exiting game, as I will be cheering for both sides.

[Warrior of the Light]

I see some serious injury coming from the Canadian tackles against unprotected shins

Until 1992 I had lived in the apartment of my parents. If we had the football European championship or the football world cup, mostly the TV had been turned on, and also I myself had watched the football games very often, from the Seventies until the Nineties.

Mostly the beer and the champagne were standing in the room, if the people had watched the football games. If there was a football goal, the people had cheered loudly, nothing more, because they had celebrated more civilized.

In the times of today very much illegal fat new year firecrackers are ignited during the championships and world cups, which is prohibited by law, but these bans are ignored. The explosions are not only very loud, they can be also very dangerous for people. I cannot understand, why football cannot be celebrated without these fat new year firecrackers (or without the brawling between rival fans in football stadiums) anymore. In the Eighties the football fans were able to celebrate also without these fat new year firecrackers, but after 2000 we heard them the first time during the big football games. I am not the only one, who doesn't like fat new year firecrackers (yesterday a radio moderator agreed with me in the radio chat).

I was outside already today. I will stay at home tomorrow. I will not leave the house, because I have too many fears. I plan a leisurely day at my PC or with my notebook in the bed.

All the best for tomorrow, whoever will win...

[Sabine Klare]

Yesterday we got a thunderstrom, then I got a migraine and I went to bed very early. Later in the evening I heard the new year fireworks, until 4:00 PM. On the next morning the street has looked like on 1st January.

I wanted to take no influence on the final football game. I thought I'd let myself be surprised. On the next day I have read the video text. Germany has won the final game.

But I say, also the second rank in the game is not bad. It is already a very good rank. At least Argentina came into the final game. Germany and Argentina have played very well, and only one of them can win. Maybe Argentina will win the FIFA world cup 2018. I hope that. The team of Argentina is a very good team, but also the many other teams from the other countries are very good.

In 2018 we will let surprise us...

[Victhor]

And so it is.. I'm proud of the players who represented us, was a tough game and germany is a fair winner, we could have won too, we had our chances but we didn't use it well (unlike germany did), it's the nature of the game, congratulations to the german people!

[DrO]

is the football now over at last? if so then we can wait for the real world cup that's coming next year...

[Victhor]

-_- I don't get it... which one? It's a Winamp joke? Or it's related to another sport?

[DrO]

i'm talking about the true world cup... the rugby union world cup none of that namby pamby 'football' stuff (does it show i don't rate football all that highly)

[Victhor]

Ahhh haha, you're on the same boat as Pieter (PJN123).. looks like teams are defined, coders go rugby, designers go football.. (¿?).

[Aminifu]

Soccer! Rugby!! Nice games. Real men play American football.

The rest of the world doesn't understand it and it has been diluted with all the rules changes to favor the offense.

[DrO]

pfft, american football... it's a heavily bastardised (and overly padded) version of rugby

[Sabine Klare]

Thank You, Victhor.

I have a question, and I ask You all: Do You Yourselves also play football and not only watch it? For example Soccer, Rugby, American football or whatever kind of football?...

Spring 1982 I was in the 9th class yet at the high school. Our school class had visited and watched a football game in the Olympia-Stadion. There were no bucket seats yet, and I liked more the broad steps of the stone stairs. When we wanted to return as whole class to the U-Bahn-Station in Berlin-Zehlendorf, we came into the scrum at the U-Bahn-Station Olympia-Stadion, and we had to return in little groups. The football game was part of the lesson plan.

The boys had played a lot of football in the sport lessons. For the girls volleyball, handball and basketball were part of the lesson plan very often...

Funny coincidence, here boys and girls play exactly those sports in secondary school (at sports lessons). Except for basketball, Argentinian in general isn't really fan of it.

And I do played a lot of football back in my teenager days (also played rugby for some time), after that I slowly stopped doing it. Now I only play tennis every weekend! And FIFA 14 of course!

[Warrior of the Light]

I play soccer with my 3-year old daughter. At least, then I can still win.
I'm just not good at it.

I play with my grand-daughter. I never win. If I am ahead, she changes the rules.
