U-20 World Championship in Canada

[Javier]

El Kun Aguero had a pretty nice FK goal today.  I thought North Korea was going to have a great team, but the results have been disappointing. 

[eS El Duque]

Zambia is the team to beat

Best players so far in the Tournament:

El Kun Aguero, Giovani Dos Santos, Freddy Adu, Cavani, Pato.

Round of 16 bracket

Austria v. Gambia
USA v. Uruguay

Spain v. Brazil
Japan v. Czech Republic

Chile v. Portugal
Zambia v. Nigeria

Argentina v. Poland
Mexico v. Congo



A lot of good games there.  USA vs Uruguay and Zambia vs Nigeria stand out. 

[On The Edge of Insanity]

Spain - Brazil should be pretty good too.

[On The Edge of Insanity]

Both Brazil and Uruguay out. The USA team showing the senior side how it should be done at the moment.

[Antonio_]

Oh boy. Argentina vs Mexico. Game of the tournament. Giovani Dos Santos vs El Kun Aguero. Oh boy!

What channels in the U.S. are televising these games?

Telefutura and Galavision

It's fucking bullshit how Czech Republic beat Spain today.  What a boring ass semifinal that one promises to be.  It would have been a much much much much better game if it was Spain vs United States.  The Champion is coming out of tomorrow's quarter finals game. 

[daWappla]

YES!

Austria in the semis! This is almost like Cordoba 78 all over again.

hey i wanted to see u.s. vs. spain as much as the next guy, but u gotta admit, it was horendous 2 watch the u.s. play in the 2nd half-extra time for the most part...and u gotta give it up 2 the czech, 3 of those penalties where FANTASTIC

no goalie in the world stops those...u can tell they are very well trained when it comes 2 taking penalties...they are not as flashy as spain, but they hold a lot of skill as well

[Javier]

When it comes to penalties yeah they are fantastic, but come on their play was whack.  They weren't even counter-attacking, it was strict defense.  In the entire game they had about 2-3 plays lol.  Spain deserved to win, luck wasn't on their side today. 


U.S.A's coach should have taken out Altidore in the extra time, that guy was way too fucking tired.  Along with pretty much the entire team since the U.S was the one doing the most work, so it's understandable that they didn't have much in the second half of Extra Time.

Dos Santos is Mexican?
