[Cena]

Good young footballers out there, going for it. Stuart Pearce will insist on defensive football later

Sadly Cena I fear you are right.

I really would just let them go for it. Nothing to lose.

And it is a one off, what is the point in being negative, even Japan have gone for it!

 

[toffeejack]

japan have been brilliant, fair play, 3-0 would not flatter them

 

[ijjysmith]

Brilliant game for a 1-0 this.

 

[JamesBT]

Look at the emotion. Fantastic

 

[RFUS]

Feels like the good guys have won, with Japan being sublime in every way except for their finishing and Spain generally being snidey when it wasn't going their way.

They think they deserve to win everything because they're Spain, and that arrogance flows through all levels of the set up. Japan however worked incredibly hard and wanted it so much, and well they deserved it completely.

Boss.

 

[RFUS]

Haha. The United Arab Emirates just opened the scoring against a Uruguay team containing Cavani, Suarez and Ramirez.

 

[RFUS]

Nearly 2-0.

Loving the Olympic fusball so far.

 

[cainan]

this is ten times better than the world cup so far haha, great games, some shocks already. que britain game to be awful

 

[steken1]

I'm sitting here with all my fingers and toes crossed just hoping Suarez doesn't get hurt or injured in any way.

These arabs are **** hot.
