My team of choice is Germany, and just today I got myself a German football jersey and tube scarf. I'm sure they're gonna kick major ass this year! GO DEUTSCHLAND!!!!

How about you guys, who are you cheering for?

I undersatand that you have not finished school yet and I cannot be too critical to your brain abilities, but I cannot help myself. Ukraine is just 19 year-old as an independend state. Since 1998 it qualifies second in its groups and just because of bigger competition in Europe we managed to go to WC just one time and managed to reach 1/4 final despite everything. On average, 40 national European teams fight for just about 12 places in WC. What is the situation in Latin America? 5 teams out of 10 go? Undecided

in 1930 and 1950… And??
in 1930 when the chaptionship took place in Uruguay to where many European teams could not come or did not want to come due to a long distance…
And in 1950 when the whole Europe was in ruins after WW2. Do you know what WW2 is? Or should I give you some time to check your school textbook? In short, this the war after which hundreds of fascists and nazis who tortured millions of people in gas rooms found asylum in Argentina and Uruguay


Please don't be stupid, I was talking about the WORLD CUP.
Oh… Then check a dictionary for the word "sarcasm"... Because that' what i meant..

Yes santi, but well that's what I call jealousy.
Oh, yeah, I'm sooo jealous that so many latinos players come to Europe to play in our clubs

Uruguay

"our clubes" which of the Uruguayan players are playing in Ukraine? Why should they? Uruguay is a richer country than Ukraine.

 In short, this the war after which hundreds of fascists and nazis who tortured millions of people in gas rooms found asylum in Argentina and Uruguay  

 You are the one who haven't read the text book. Uruguay and Argentina both declared the war against Germany and Italy in the WW2, and here came thousand of hungry dirty europeans looking for some opportunities. Shut up your mouth if you don't know anything about our history. Do you know San Javier? That town in Uruguay if full of your people, Russians and Ukranians, who were tortured and followed in your countries.

Uruguay, Argentina, Australia, the USA, Canada and New Zeland are the only countries in the world that gave the same opportunities to foreignes than to natives, those foreignes who came very damaged by wars and genocides done in Europe, no one can deny it.

This is the last thing I'll say about it. Maybe you forgot the free aid that Uruguay and Argentina sent to Europe while European were in war.

BTW, leave him alone lu. That's jealousy indeed. He doesn't know how it feels like to belong to a succesful country.

Argentina

Haha, well I think Santiago aswered all i wanted. So I don't have much things to say to someone like you, I mean I can talk about football with someone who just talks about football and don't have involve other circumstances in order to defend their country.. So look for the word ''football'' on you dictionary because it must be you the one who forgot to check out on your text book;) Sorry I remembered that you've finished long long long time ago! 

And I don't know any argentinian player playing in Ukranie, SO when you talk about ''YOUR COUNTRY'' talk about Ukranie, because you can't compare it with Spain, Italy, France, Germany and important countries. Bye, take care!

Congratulations Spain!!!
