Any danger of the Spain - Tahiti game breaking the current record high scoring game?

 

Current record is Australia 31-0 American Samoa.

 

I can see Spain putting past 10-15 past Tahiti but don't think it will get up to that level.

 

Out of all the Pacific Islands Tahiti are one of the better teams, in their first game of the 2012 Oceania Nations Cup Tahiti actually put 10 past Samoa (who are about the same level as American Samoa)

Japans left back is better than Fox, sign him up?

 

Funnily enough Nagatomo was the only Inter Milan player on the pitch.

 

It was a brilliant game and Japan would have won it if they hadn't gifted Italy two of their goals. Maya what were you thinking? :cry: Italy's 4th came straight from a Japanese defender giving it away from his own area as well.

 

But it shows just how far Japan have come though, they have some top class players

 

Meanwhile Spain-Tahiti tonight. . . I'm predicting 13-0

One of the best games of football I have seen for many, many years. Real edge of the seat stuff every minute. For most of the first half, Japan's passing and ball retention was as good as most Brazil teams I've ever seen, indeed reminding me of Liverpool in their pomp. They dominated Italy totally and with better finishing could easily have been out of sight by half time. It is arguable that the scoreline might have had one goal fewer to each team, although the Japan penalty was more debateable, whereas the Italy penalty was down to crass incompetence by the referee, ball to hand all day long, no way that any player on the planet could have avoided it.

 

Japan never let their heads drop when they went behind and could have stolen the point right up to the final whistle. Italy on the other hand were holding on desperately. I think we have witnessed a portent that Japan will within the next few years be a team at the very top of World football if they carry on building on these foundations.

They should get 10 at least,

 

One thing is guaranteed, even when they are 10-0 up, the Spanish C**** will still be rolling around feigning injury trying to get the other players sent off.

I watched them make complete mugs out of England in Graz during Englands final warm-up game before SA 2010. Japan lost 2-1, but scored all 3 goals :lol:

One thing that annoys me other than that, is that the spain fans still cum in their pants with every goal that they score. I mean for christs sake its tahiti in the confederations cup,not a world cup final against the germans!
