2013 Confederations Cup

I love how Tahiti aren't even sitting back. They're trying to play football, bless 'em.

 

I've only watched about 10 minutes but I reckon Tahiti are much better than San Marino, very positive and there have been a few tidy passes and touches. Better than I expected.

 

Never!!! The ref's got to give them a late sympathy penalty surely.

 

Yes!

 

Get in!

 

Tahiti score! Fantastic back post header from a corner. Brilliant.

 

Taaaahhiiiiittttiiiiii!

 

I feel like if Tahiti had a population of 60 million they'd be much better than us.

 

As it is, they're not much worse!

 

The trouble Nigeria are having is that because their perception (and the reality is) that Tahiti are poor, they all think they can individually score a hatful. As a result they're not actually playing with much team-based thought.

 

Amusing looking at the 'If Tahiti Score' comments from online now.

"I'll get 'Tahiti 4 life' as a tattoo"

"I'll teabag my toaster"

"I will make a video of me smashing my xbox into pieced with a baseball bat"

 

Jonathan Tehau gets an own goal to go with the one he scored from the corner. 1-4.

 

Just turned on TV and I'm impressed it's only 4-1!

 

I don't like Brown Ideye very much.

 

Ideye hogs the ball, like, ridiculously.

 

Fair play to Tahiti. They didn't really deserve to lose by so many.

 

I've updated this thread with the latest results and tables.

I've also added Maya and Gaston watch

Enjoy...

 

Well done SG

 

Thanks SG, the Ramirez quote from goal.com is a bit depressing. From what people have been saying on here who watched the game (not me), the whole Uruguay team were outclassed by Spain, not just Gaston.

 

Uruguay's tactics were dreadful.
