I think the world cups been cracking. Very few poor games. I think your kind of missing the point. The beautiful game doesn't just mean fancy tricks. Its about playing it properly and with skill (such as shooting, creative build up etc).

i agree with stotty here the beautiful game isn't dribbling and one man play it is passing, and everything besides tricks.

tricks are the icing on the cake.


also were have you been, even in the Tunisia-SA game there were tricks performed here and there amidst all the senseless tackling and shoving.

The Germans probably did 100 stepovers in the opening game. They didn't amount to anything, but they were there.

more cowbells? :|

nationalism alone is enough to entertain me for the World Cup. maybe you're not able to affiliate yourself with one specific team or two?

You can see it three times a day, between both halves of any game on TV :nape:.

WC has been very nice so far; lots of interesting, hard-fought games. There is more to the game than the tricks - even though the absolute lack of them on Brazil-Croatia is a bad sign for us.

meh the Euro always has far far better quality of football, at least in the group stage.

We haven't had anything even close to the Holland x Czech Rep. game in the 2004 group stage.

I don't think it's a bad sign. Usually a team won't start doing the tricks until they have a lead since tricks are more often than not less effective than just playing a one-two or something. If Brazil had lost it would be a bad sign.

Oh, and everything above doesn't count for Ronaldinho, he does his tricks so effortlessly that he's probably better when he's doing them.
