I wish I could participate in the thread but every game I've watched has been on recording well after the game already happened. And I don't like knowing what happened before hand. So I've been following this thread about a day late.Quote:

Japan strikes first! 1-0 15'
How would the best club teams match up in this? I'd have to think your Barcelonas and Real Madrids would always make it to the KO round and beyond.
HT 1-0 Japan (Honda 15')
I'm not at home, who is Japan playing?Quote:

Oh c'mon, enough with the flops. It's not like the Nips are running a "hurry up" offense Coach Saban. I will say that I don't care for the time rules in soccer. I know that's just the way it is but sometimes I wish it would be more structured
Bayern Munich, Barcelona, and Real Madrid would all compete to win the World Cup. The only two national teams that could realistically compete with those clubs are Spain and Germany, but the real reason is chemistry. Club teams have much better chemistry than national teams because they play with each other all year rather than 4 or 5 times a year. Real Madrid (champion's league winners) have France's striker (Benzema), Portugal's winger (Ronaldo-best player in the world), Wales winger (Bale), Argentina's winger (Di Maria), Croatia's midfielder (Modric), Brazil's left back (Marcelo), France's center back (Varane), Spain's center back (Ramos), Spain's Right back (Carvajal), Spain's midfielder (Alonso), Spain's keeper (Casillas) as well as other world stars. And Barcelona and Bayern Munich have starters from countries all over the world, as well. Where national teams generally have at least one weakness, these world class clubs can fill those by throwing cash around.Quote:
