Ireland vs New Zealand
Ireland vs New Zealand



Match: Ireland vs New Zealand
Date: Saturday, 20, October, 2010.
Time: 17:30 until 19:30 (GMT/UTC/UK)
Competitions: End of Year Internationals

Preview:

If the vast majority of comments from Irish supporters in our inbox can be taken as an accurate gauge of how  this weekend’s showdown at Lansdowne Road will pan out, then Ireland don’t have a chance.
It’s tough to blame the home faithful for losing their faith given Ireland’s record this year. Declan Kidney’s team have lost seven out of eleven matches and looked unconvincing in last Saturday’s 20-10 win against Samoa.
Perhaps the criticism is a little harsh? Sure, Ireland were dominated up front by South Africa but they only lost by two points in the end. Samoa gave them a real scare but that was arguably the best team in blue ever to visit Europe.
Test rugby is a game of small margins – if you’re just a little off song, the punishment is usually severe. If we take the comments coming out of the Irish camp at face value, then the hosts are confident that they can fix a few areas and give the All Blacks a run for their money.
But if ever there was a unit that punishes their opposition for the small errors mentioned above, it’s the current crop of men in black.
What stood out in the All Blacks’ win against Scotland was the ruthless manner in which the tourists went about their business. Even when they were over 30 points ahead, when most teams would have switched to cruise control, they continued to hammer away.
Ireland need to shape up – and fast – or they risk suffering the same fate as their Northern Hemisphere counterparts at Murrayfield. For all their insistence that confidence hasn’t taken a slump and that the atmosphere in the camp is positive, they surely cannot be immune to the criticism from outside. Just how the hosts react if New Zealand take an early lead will be interesting to see.
Albert Einstein’s definition of insanity is “doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” What seems to irritate Irish fans the most is Kidney’s insistence in picking a virtually unchanged team  (compared to the side that faced South Africa), despite their lack or results.

Former New Zealand scrum-half Justin Marshall told an Irish newspaper this week that he reckons there isn’t   a single player in the Irish team that would be selected for the All Blacks on current form. Marshall obviously could never be the most objective pundit, but he probably isn’t far off the mark.
But would wholesale changes to the hosts’ team turn the bus around? We’re not sure. Good players don’t turn bad over night. That said, there’s one or two names in that pack that might be past their sell-by date.
In stark contrast, all the news this week regarding the All Blacks has been about records. Mils Muliaina and Richie McCaw will become New Zealand’s most capped players on Saturday. If all goes to plan Graham Henry will be rewarded with his 100th Test win as a coach and Dan Carter could become the most prolific points scorer from any nation in Test history.
The Kiwis must be ruing last month’s defeat in Hong Kong more than ever as the world record for most consecutive wins would surely have been within their grasps by now.
Of course, Henry has troubles of his own. He has to leave one of Conrad Smith, Ma’a Nonu and Sonny Bill Williams out of his team every week. Poor guy.
Ones to watch:
For Ireland: Just when we all thought it was time to put Ronan O’Gara out to pasture, he almost pulls the game out of the fire against South Africa and then scores the winning try against Samoa. Jonathan Sexton has to live up to the faith put in him this week. Amid growing calls from some parts of the Irish public to see Sean O’Brien given a spot in the team, David Wallace is also under pressure to come up with a big game.
For New Zealand: The hottest topic of debate in New Zealand right now is ‘who should start in midfield?’. Sonny Bill Williams’ performance last week set the bar pretty high, so expect a reaction from Conrad Smith and Ma’a Nonu. The opposition his week is high class so a strong game from the Hurricanes’ duo will go a long way to helping them retain their status as the incumbents .
Head-to-head: Ireland have disappointed at scrum time this month and the All Blacks won’t be too proud of their set-piece performance at Twickenham either. It all starts up front – if the Irish backs don’t get the ball on the front foot, their cause is lost.
Previous results:
2010: Ireland lost 66-28 in New Plymouth
2008: Ireland lost 3-22 at Croke Park
2008: Ireland lost 21-11 in Wellington
2006: Ireland lost 27-17 in Auckland
2006: Ireland lost 24-23 in Hamilton
2005: Ireland lost 7-45 at Lansdowne Road
2002: Ireland lost 40-8 in Auckland
2002: Ireland lost 15-6 in Dunedin
2001: Ireland lost 29-40 at Lansdowne Road
Prediction: Ireland have never beaten the All Blacks and nothing suggests this is the weekend for an upset. New Zealand by fifteen points.
The teams:
Ireland: 15 Robert Kearney 14 Tommy Bowe 13 Brian O’Driscoll (c) 12 Gordon D’Arcy, 11 Luke Fitzgerald, 10 Jonathan Sexton, 9 Eoin Reddan, 8 Jamie Heaslip, 7 David Wallace, 6 Stephen Ferris, 5 Mick O’Driscoll, 4 Donncha O’Callaghan, 3 Tom Court, 2 Rory Best, 1 Cian Healy.

Holland is looking for the World Cup Trophy

The Dutch are Unclutch, or so the stereotype goes. Every time they get a great team together, they promptly fall apart and throw away the tournament.
World Cups. European Championships. The years and venues and players change, the story stays the same. No world power is more disappointing.

WorldCup-Finals.com



“When we win, we tend to be a bit arrogant,” said coach Bert van Marwijk on Monday, on the eve of a World Cup semifinal here against Uruguay.
Now, this is some humorous stuff.
The Dutch are arrogant? The Dutch suffer from overconfidence?
This is a nation best known for windmills, tulips and wooden clogs. It boasts a fan base that wears bright orange – and gets the joke. They are suckers for brass bands. They go nuts for trendy sports such as long track speedskating. They put mayonnaise on French fries. The nation’s biggest city, Amsterdam, is famed for its legalized marijuana and front-window red light district. People still commute by canal boat. Or bicycle.
You want to know about the Netherlands? Well, you can walk into a movie theater in Amsterdam and buy a beer. And I don’t mean just like in no paper cup, I’m talking about a glass of beer.
If ever there was a country that didn’t take itself too seriously – one that would presumably lack self-confidence – it’s the Netherlands. The warm, friendly, welcoming and decidedly unpretentious Netherlands. Everyone loves the Dutch. These are some of the nicest people on earth.
Yet, there they are. They win a few soccer games and for some reason they completely lose their mind. And after besting mighty Brazil – with a come-from-behind 2-1 victory, no less – the possibility for arrogance is obvious.
The only thing standing in the way of the Netherlands’ first finals appearance since 1978 is Uruguay, a small South American nation whose coach spent most of Monday’s press conference complaining about his invasive local media … which is considerably smaller than the horde that covers, say, the New York Yankees. He called them “war correspondents.”
Uruguay is a big underdog, with a number of missing stars (handballer Luis Suarez included) only further stacking the odds against them.
“In some countries they have more footballers than the 3 million people inhabiting Uruguay,” noted coach Oscar Tabarez.
He followed that up with this bold bit of trash talk:
“I think it’s fair to say we have a fairly modest hope we can have the effort to win.”
So look out. The Dutch have a history of overconfidence, and Uruguay would instill overconfidence in any semifinal opponent (heavyweights Spain and Germany play Wednesday).
So now everyone is nervous. Which means, for perhaps the first time ever, it’s worth reminding the good people of Amsterdam that they should just chill out. Maybe they can keep the “coffee” shops open late to help preserve civil order.
“I’ve said many times, I can’t change a culture, but I’ve worked very hard to make this group of players realize if you want to win something in a tournament, you must always focus on the next game,” van Marwijk said. “You are talking about the past that we never really made it, that we failed.”
Well, the Dutch did win the 1988 European Championship, the only major title the nation has won. Other than that it’s been a string of disappointments. Two World Cup finals losses in 1974 and 1978 were tough. Not getting back since has been tougher.

At Euro 2008, the Dutch destroyed World Cup finalists France and Italy in group play and appeared unstoppable. They were an overwhelming favorite in the quarterfinals, only to lose to lightly regarded Russia.
It was a stunning result. And the heart of that team is the heart of this team.
“As we said, it’s a long process,” van Marwijk said of building the mentality to close a team out.
How the heck the Dutch got so arrogant is a mystery. It’s undeniably their curse, though. Scan their history and current roster and you can actually see it. From Ruud van Nistelrooy to Rafael van der Vaart. Those are some regal – read: arrogant – names there.
And what’s with a country that calls itself the Netherlands and Holland? Yet its people are Dutch. That’s the equivalent of referring to yourself in the third person.
So history looms over Cape Town like the Chicago Cubs in the World Series. The joke is that the only team capable of beating the Netherlands is Holland, and Holland is favored.
For his part, van Marwijk kept trying to lower expectations and grew agitated when reporters asked about the finals, not the semifinals.


Current Dutch teammates Khalid Boulahrouz and Joris Mathijsen following their upset loss to Russia in the Euro 2008 quarterfinals.


“I really don’t want to talk about the final. I’ve been hearing this much too often. First we have to play a semifinal. I didn’t come to this tournament to wring my hands once we achieved that. Achieving the final is not enough. You want to win the final. But I am not even thinking of that.”
Actually, he is. Everyone in orange is. They can’t help themselves. They are the Dutch. They are the Terrell Owens of the World Cup.

Argentina vs Mexico

Argentina vs Mexico

Argentina vs. Mexico

Argentine vs. Mexico is the pulsating match in Round 16 at World Cup FIFA 2010 in Soccer City Stadium, Johannesburg, today, Sunday, June 27th 2010. The match starts at 20:30 local time. Mexican will be looking to avenge their 1-2 defeat in World Cup finals in 2006 when the two time winner Argentina takes on Mexico here today. For a recall, four years ago the teams faced each other in Germany at the same Round of 16 and won it by a stunning extra time goal by Maxi Rodriguez and Argentina won the match by 1-0.

FIFA World Cup 2010 between Argentina and Mexico at the Round 16 of FIFA WC on Sunday will be a hair rising experience with unquestionable Argentine attacking prowess against
the attacking talent of Mexican squad especially after their brilliant 2-0 win against France.  Even Diego Maradona has openly admitted that the attacking talent of the Mexican team has given him reasons to worry for today’s match. Argentina looks impressive though with their three wins in Group B and tops point table with 9 points. Whereas Mexico is quick second with 4 points in Group A point table.

Argentina vs. Mexico at the World Cup FIFA 2010 will be important for Javier Aguirre (manager Mexico) who will play with a simple objective to get to the elusive fifth game at a FIFA WC finals tournament and book their place in the quarter finals for the first time in 24 years. The Mexican squad looks brilliant with players like Giovani dos Santos, Javier Hernandez, Cuauhtemoc Blanco, Carlos Vela and Guillermo Franco. The squad is capable enough to pose danger to Argentine defence but have to put some great firework to match Argentine’s in the midfield.

The game between Argentina and Mexico promises to be a brilliant show with the mascot Lionel Messi and Gonzalo Higuain who scored a hattrick against South Korea in the Argentine squad. J S Veron, who is Argentine mid fielder and a key player in today’s match is another player that Mexico needs to watch out for. Coach Diego Maradona calls him his ‘Xavi’ and says that he is irreplaceable because of his influence over Messi. Argentina has swept away Nigeria, Greece and South Korea to confirm their place in last 16. Rafael Marquez, Captain Mexico, was quoted saying, “We have an encounter ahead which we have to enjoy, but we will play to the death to win it.”

Diego Maradona, coach Argentina, in an interview expressed his worries about the attacking talent of the Mexicans and said that it is impossible to know what team they will play. He said, “We’re going to give Mexico the respect they deserve because, in spite of losing against Uruguay, they know exactly what they’re doing. We will try to get them and look for their weaknesses.”

USA vs Ghana - World Cup







Live Steam FIFA World Cup Football 2010 USA vs Ghana


After an incredibly dramatic group stage that saw emotions shift from anger to sadness to joy at remarkable pace, the USA has qualified for the World Cup round of 16 and won Group C. The bad calls, poor finishing and all of the other problems for the Yanks were briefly forgotten when Landon Donovan sank that injury-time winner over Algeria. Now it’s on to the knockouts, to face an opponent that US fans will remember well – Ghana. It was the last match of their 2006 World Cup group when Ghana eliminated the USA on a late penalty from Steven Appiah. The Yanks will be out for revenge, as well as to prove that they can hang with the big boys on the biggest stage.


Ghana has a whole different set of motivations. Despite not scoring a goal from open play in their three group matches, and coming into the tournament without their biggest star Michael Essien, the Black Stars enter this match as the last African team alive in Africa’s World Cup. No pressure, guys. The Bafana Bafana fans and their vuvuzelas have moved on from their team’s elimination and put much of their support behind Ghana, so they will be very much the home side.


WHAT’S AT STAKE
Where do you want to start? The struggle for respect of an up and coming footballing nation vs. the desperate hope that an African side can do something truly memorable in this World Cup. Not to mention that even without these storylines, we’re talking about the knockouts now. What’s at stake is a place in the quarterfinals and the knowledge that you are two wins, not three, from a spot in the biggest single match in football, the World Cup final.

USA vs. Ghana

Uruguay vs Korea - World Cup 2010

After 14 draws in 48 group matches (just shy of a third), the knockout rounds have finally arrived.

Tune in to see the first Round of 16 match of the 2010 FIFA World Cup as Uruguay and South Korea face off at Nelson Mandela Bay in Port Elizabeth , South Africa at 10:00 a.m. EST on Saturday, June 26.



The round of 16 is finally here and the first game on the schedule for Saturday is Uruguay vs Korea Republic at 10:00am EST (16:00) which can be seen on ESPN followed by USA vs Ghana at 2:30pm EST (20:30). World Cup picks at online bookmakers have Uruguay -130 money line favorites vs Korea +350 with a draw returning +230. Uruguay -½ goal (-115) are also point-spread favorites vs the Korea Republic +½ goal (-105) while the over/under soccer lines total is sitting at 2 UNDER (-115). La Celeste earned their spot in the round of 16 with a 0-0 draw vs France, 3-0 victory over South Africa and a hard fought 1-0 win over Mexico to win Group A while the Taeguk Warriors  embarrassed Greece 2-0, lost to Argentina 1-4 and drew with Nigeria 2-2 to reach the second stage as the Group B runner-up.

World Cup 2010 Upcoming matches

England vs Algeria Preview

England vs Algeria Match Preview

Algeria's Nadir Belhadj thinks his team can beat EnglandAlgeria have never made it past the group stage in their two previous World Cup appearances in 1982 and 1986, although they did cause quite a stir when they upset the West Germans in 1982.
That particular result led to controversy as the West Germans and Austrians later contrived a 1-0 West German victory that served to pass both of those European countries through to the knockout phase at the expense of the Algerians.
But that’s their history and this is 2010.
Algeria lost 1-0 to Slovenia in their first match in this World Cup and sit last in Group C. Now they need a win over England to guarantee a chance of survival.
After seeing how the Three Lions squad failed to dispatch the USA, Algerian defender Nadir Belhadj for one thinks his team can do it.
 

Algerians see problems in England’s defense

"We have seen some gaps, especially in their defense,” said Belhadj, “and, if we can take advantage of those gaps…maybe it could make the difference and we could create history by qualifying from the group stages.”
The English are not immune to being upset by a lesser football power. Their 1-0 loss to USA in Brazil in the 1950 World Cup is the most commonly cited example. Last weekend’s 1-1 draw with the USA only serves to show that the modern England squad is vulnerable too.
Robert Green’s unfortunate blunder gifted the USA a goal and a share of the points, but despite largely dominating play against the Americans the English seldom looked truly dominant.
With the loss of Rio Ferdinand and with Ledley King doubtful, Belhadj’s observation isn’t far off the mark. The English do indeed seem vulnerable at the back.
Ferdinand’s knee injury, suffered in a training ground encounter, ruled him out of the tournament before it started, and motivated England boss Fabio Capello to call up Michael Dawson of Tottenham to replace the Manchester United man.
Talented but fragile defender Ledley King suffered a groin strain in the match against the USA and is said to be doubtful for the Algeria match. If King is unable to start Capello will have to make a decision on whom to play at the back. Dawson joins two other players in the frame for central defense: Liverpool’s Jamie Carragher and West Ham’s Matthew Upson.
The English at least can be comforted knowing that Gareth Barry is once again fit and is set to start against Algeria, having recovered from an ankle injury suffered while playing for his club, Manchester City, last month.
But the starting goalkeeper is another area of decision for Capello. Will he go with Green again, despite his calamitous error against the USA?  

Is the Jabulani a factor?

For his part, Green admitted the mistake was all his and nothing to do with the apparently unpredictable qualities of the much maligned Jabulani ball.
"You prepare mentally for making those mistakes - that's what you do the preparation for before a game. You don't let it affect you. I'm not blaming the ball, I should have stopped it and there's no two ways about it” said the West Ham ‘keeper.
Capello put things in perspective. “He made one mistake, a big mistake, but in the second half he also made one great save,” the manager said. “He saved that really, really well.” We’ll probably not know until Friday whether Green will get another chance.
Yet the Algerians come into the match with England having suffered a similar fate. The goal that gave their Slovenian opponents the vital three points last weekend also came as a result of a goalkeeping error.
Algerian keeper Chaouchi should have dealt with Koran’s shot easily. Instead he allowed the shot to bounce off his arm and into the goal. The Jabulani factor?

England striker Wayne Rooney needs to get his scoring boots

onBoth teams need a win

A loss to England means an early trip home for the Algerians. A win, albeit unlikely, is probably the only chance they have of survival, and Belhadj and company will undoubtedly approach the match with the attitude that nothing is impossible.
England’s defensive worries are certainly troublesome, but they’d be offset some if striker Wayne Rooney were to get himself on the score sheet. Rooney hasn’t scored for his country in six matches, and although others among the English are capable of bulging the onion bag, the sight of Rooney doing for England what he did so well for Manchester United this season would undoubtedly warm the cockles of English hearts as they prepare to face the big boys in the knockout stages. But first they have to avoid being upset by Algeria.

Day 7, Match 1
Argentina vs. South Korea, Group B

What's at stake

Argentina defeated Nigeria 1-0 in its opening game, while South Korea posted a 2-0 victory over Greece. As a result, the Argentines and South Koreans are tied for first place in Group B with three points apiece, while winless Nigeria and Greece pick up the rear.
This is a critical game for both sides as a win would land that team in first place in Group B and put them in the driver's seat with six points and one game to go in the first round.
A tie wouldn't be disastrous for Argentina, as its last match of the group stage is against lowly Greece, who has yet to win a game in two World Cups after making their tournament debut in 1994.
South Korea, on the other hand, faces a tricky Nigeria side in its final encounter of the group stage, so anything less than a victory against Argentina would mean their chances of advancing to the second round would go down to the wire.

Suspension watch

Jonas Gutierrez earned a yellow card in Argentina's previous match. If he receives a another against South Korea, he will be suspended for Argentina's final game of the group stage. South Korea doesn`t have any players on a yellow card.

Player to watch for Argentina

Gabriel Heinze — The tough-tackling defender netted the winner for Argentina against Nigeria, scoring with a powerful header off a free kick. Heinze is coach Diego Maradona's defensive marshal, but it will be interesting to see if he ventures forward in attack after finding the net against the Nigerians.

Player to watch for South Korea

Lee Jung-Soo — Like Heinze, Lee Jung-Soo is a centre-back who scored for South Korea off a set piece against Greece. The South Korean possesses good speed, which he uses to great effect in joining the attack, and to recover to get back into position when the other team has the ball.

Key match-up

Lionel Messi vs. Park Ji-Sung — They play for two of the biggest clubs in the world (Messi for FC Barcelona, Park Ji-Sung with Manchester United), and both are talented playmakers and serve as the creative fulcrums of their national teams. Messi is the best player in the world, but Park Ji-Sung is a talented star who doesn't quite receive the recognition he deserves. A strong performance against Argentina would go a long way to change that.

The Argentine perspective

"It was a little worrying that we couldn't score a second [goal] but Nigeria made it a little difficult for us. More importantly I feel that we played well. We have gained confidence from these three points, now we are focusing on the second game." — defender Jonas Gutierrez

The South Korean perspective

"Argentina are one of the candidates for the title, they have a lot of good players, but I have told my players to remain confident. No matter how strong they are, if we do what we have to do, we can manage to grow. Just because it's Argentina one shouldn't be defeatist." — coach Huh Jung-Moo

World Cup head-to-head

  • Games played:1
  • Argentina: 1 win, 0 losses, 0 draws
  • South Korea: 0 wins, 1 loss, 0 draws
  • Goals: Argentina 3, South Korea 1
  • Last match: South Korea met Argentina in the group stage of the 1986 World Cup, and La Albiceleste won 3-1. Jorge Valdano scored a pair and Oscar Ruggeri added another as Argentina brushed aside South Korea in Mexico City. Park Chang Sun buried a consolation goal in the 73rd minute.

All time head-to-head

Outside of the 1986 World Cup, these nations have never faced each other.
