Barney 0 Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 After the above World Cup qualifying wasn't called off(played in Denver), Costa Rica threw a bit of a tantrum(the US won). The away game is now up and the Costa Ricans are rolling out the red carpet... They've started by refusing priority immigration and they've had to queue up with the public. The home fans are aware of this and are at the airport giving abuse to the team. The USA FA had also been in touch looking for a suggested training base for the stay in Costa Rica. Their FA provided 3. All 3 refused. The Costa Rican FA also failed to provide the customary match footballs for training. Local taxi drivers have also decided to purposely slow traffic for the USA's route to the stadium. USA have never won there either. Should be a good atmosphere!

Barney 0 Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 I think Costa Rica were happy to play on until they went 1 down. The game was played in Denver intentionall for the colder conditions. I enjoy a bit of agro of this sort though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleeToonFan 1 Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Aye, it'd be a bit different if they took the lead during the game... Be awesome if the rest of the hexagonal have Costa Rica the same treatment for the rest of the games though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 26538 Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 In fairness it's up to the referee to decide whether the game will go ahead, the US team were just making the most of home conditions. Costa Rica are doing the same now, I'd love to see what conditions are going to be like inside the USA dressing room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTF 6191 Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Rooney standing over ball, with noone near him about to take a free-kick. Commentator: "...wouldn't be surprised to see Wayne Rooney stepping up to try to open his account today." Hope they're paying a pretty penny for such insightful analysis. He scored it (whilst competing with his own record for most ridiculous head adornment). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monroe Transfer 0 Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Sunderland boss Paolo Di Canio will not like this one bit. Defender Modibo Diakite trots over to Mesut Ozil as the players leave the pitch and wants to swap shirts after that first-half display. Ozil just laughs at him.

hostile_statue 0 Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Dortmund are ahead 6-2 vs Hamburg. BvB are like Newcastle 1995-96; they might be second best in the league, but they're certainly the most entertaining team to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
