I'll read the Parhelia reviews during the breaks. 😀
 
I think that showing stupidity for whatever reasons(being cry baby, racial prejudice, lack of education, bad childhood, lolita complex, whatever) is just wrong and shouldn't be tolerate in a forum of this magnitude.

Totally agree...go Korea!
 
Koreas run ends against Germany.

Miroslav Klose has 5 goals via header and he isn't the biggest guy on the team. The Koreans are no match for the Germans in the air. Germany will score at least 2 goals. As we all know, Korea can't score until the other team is exhausted from chasing them around. It think Germany will have scored enough to outlast them.

In the off chance I am wrong, I assure you that Brazil will own the Koreans.

Anyhoo, old habits die hard and I will be rooting against Germany.

Watching it in Flushing was AWESOME, left at 10am and people were still in the streets. You Koreans, mad pride yo... but gotta admit, the refs did blow some calls. But so what, Korea had a good day, Spain had a bad day, things happen, just too bad it happened on such an important day. It would be nice to see Korea win again against Germany, but those guys, they ain't no pushovers...

I expect a 40:60 chance that Korea will beat Germany.

If Korea beats Germany, Brazil will beat them in the finals. I seriously doubt that the Korean defense, even though they did an excellent job, can withstand the attacks of Brazil's 3 (or 4) Rs.
 
does Korea and its style of play remind anyone else of that Simpsons episode?
the one where Homer becomes a boxer...
and takes a million blows from the boxcar boxers until they get tired...and give them a little nudge for the win???
and then he gets messed up by Tyson? and moe saves him with the fangliding thingy?
and moe does crazy acts of heroism all over the world?

i think it'll be like that...
except maybe the refs (and fans ) will help korea and minus all that acts of heroism stuff....
anyways...
i hope this match isn't as controversial...

GO KOREA~
 
I see two major factors that transformed Korea into a strong team. Strong teamwork and their coach.

The Korean players work incredibly well as a team. I did some readings on their training methods and a set of protocols and rules they introduced between the players. They follow some strict rules - some against the common trends and values of contemporary Koreans - in order to build up team spirit, developer a strong shared vision and improve overall communication.

A lot of these were introduced since Hiddink was hired as a coach. The man knows what he is doing, introduces his tactics to the team and the players follow it well.

So a world-renowned coach guides them to fight the opponent's weakspot with the Korean team's strong points. And the team follow the instructions well and work great as a team. To top that off, they got home advantage.

IMHO, that's what made this team so strong in this World Cup.

"Effort" means jack squat without proper guidance. They can run around the field all the want for all 90 minutes, but that's not gonna earn them any wins. A team focused towards common goals and aggressively pursues their goals is much more likely to win, and that's what I see from the Korean team. "Cinderella story" is another BS too, which I won't bother to explain why.
