i just washed my vintage argentina el 10 jersey today
i'm ready!!!

as always Brazil is one to watch,
Neymar has been absolutely sick! es un crack!
i don't know what the big teams are waiting for,
buy him already.

argentina all the way!!!

 

[kokobombon]

Uruguay is another team to watch I think, they did very good in the World Cup...

 

[dorien]

luis suarez had been playing amazing fútbol at Liverpool.
an instant KoP favorite.

what worries me is Diego Forlan,
do they have another great foward in Cavani,
Forlan seems to be going through a rough spell.

of course there are always players who play horrible
for their club and great for their country,
and vice versa.

hopefully we have some good games.
all the other teams are quite strong,
Chi chi chi, le le le, CHILE
Paraguay? in all honesty, i think they beat Spain
in the world cup, bad refereeing in that match.



sad news about River Plate, non

Uruguay?
Luis Suarez after what he did in the world cup against mexico I will never respect him

What? Score??

I think the player to watch for Uruguay is Edinson Cavani, he played great this season in Serie A.

i like the argentine comentators on FoxD

talking about Brazil (a rough translation that is natural better in spanish

A: brazil is brazil, but we don't have the brazil from yesterday. With Ronaldo, ronaldinho, the brazil from a couple of years ago.

B: you give me 11 brazilians, doesn't matter the names, as long as they are from brazil, and i respect that

A: but we can say that brazil is not the out of this world team, they are more down to earth now. there might be a chance.

i just hate we have to watch it in Univision.
i don't like the commentators....
i prefer Mario Kempes on ESPN

 

[kokobombon]

^I hate Mario Kempes, he´s anti Real Madrid I have a theory that everytime he comments our matches we win, only to despise him

I prefer Quique Wolf´s comments

 

[dorien]

how can you hate Mario K?

at least you don't have to watch Univision

they are so pro-mexican, it's disgusting.
when they started comparing el chicharito to Messi, TO MESSI!
i knew they had lost it,
but not only them, FoxD did as well.
our cable channels in the US, aimed to the Hispanic market,
are so pro-mexican, as if there is no other nationality here. FFS.
i'm tired of hearing about mexican fútbol, no one cares,
they're not good. once they play the better teams, they lose.

 

[daniellat]

^Tell us how you really feel

Mexico - Uruguay THAT is something I want to watch

It´s because they recycle commentators from Televisa and TV Azteca. (And they live in their own world, where they think Mexico has been 5 times world champion )
@kokobombon I understand you, I can´t hear Fernando Palomo commentating a Milan match, because I feel we´re gonna loose. I prefeer Vitto de Palma with Jorge Barril. B)
Edit: I didn´t get the opening with the Kid and the Messi look a like.
And about the game, Argentina is struggling with Bolivia. You better score Messi there´s a depositfiles premium account on the line for me.

 

[kokobombon]

Boring match so far
the only thing entertaining is Lavezzi´s shoes

 

[japoelflaco]

Bolivia just wasted a chance for the second goal. I can´t wait to hear Maradonna about this.

 

[japoelflaco]

Tie 1-1, both great goals. Who would´ve tought? I had predicted 4-0 Argentina for the win. I guess I should know better.

 

[alonsoJonathan]

WOOOw at all the trash talking!!!
btw what the hell is mexico doing in this cup? is not from that region...

Mexican media is usually no the most humble or objective about their team and players. And they are invited by Conmebol also it was USA but they declined ´cause Concacaf don´t let them bring their A team just an U-22 team for Copa America. Instead they invited Japan but they also declined because of the Tsunami and the european teams didn´t lend their star players for the Cup, so they invited Costa Rica as an emergency.

 

[paz2992]

was i the only one that kind of predicted that Argentina was going to be flat against Bolivia? i feel the 6-1 is still somewhere over there, still is one match, 2 left.

Still, i'm routing for my beloved country, Chile

i remember reading somewhere that they even wanted to invite Spain, but everyone was against it, because it was like giving them the cup. Which was not fair for the american countries.

 

[japoelflaco]

I don´t think they are scared, but it´s called Copa "America", Spain and Japan have nothing to do in there. Although I think Paraguay would´ve love to play Spain again, and I still haven´t watched Brazil v. Spain B).
BTW Colombia won 1 - 0 to Costa Rica, making them the liders of Group A, at the moment.

 

[models_vlada]

Now that Argentina has lost the thing , i think the cup is between Chile and Brazil, although Uruguay is also a rival.

I'm also wanting my beloved Chile to win this competition.
