Football / Soccer

I saw a post about the superbowl, so i just felt the right thing to do was to open a topic about a real sport: football.

As a big fan of Ajax Amsterdam i'm really excited about the game coming up this sunday. It's the match between Ajax and Feyenoord, our biggest rival. The game is called 'de Klassieker': the classic. It's the two biggest clubs here and between the biggest cities, Amsterdam and Rotterdam. No fans of the away team are allowed to come because of violence in the past. Everyone is looking forward to this game for a long time now. We really have to win, also because we're not doing so well the last few weeks...

I used to be on the stands more often then i do now, but this is the group i used to be in. A week ago it turned 15 years old, so they made a nice video.



There was also a small party before the match last week:

Nice to see a fellow soccer fan here. I wouldn't say I'm a hardcore soccer fan that knows everything about the different leagues however I do like some of the French clubs such as PSG and marseille. I hope PSG wins the Championship League this year

Psg? They are only a good side because of their sheikh giving money... Zlatan is amazing though

That's because I am French haha, I support ligue 1 teams

Haha fair enough. I just don't like this 'modern football'. All this money destroys the game. Like the Chinese now... They bought some top players. Maybe it's because Ajax will never be able to compete with these amounts of money

Zlatan is slow, lol And most people compare him to Ronaldinho?? lol I don't think Zlatan will come close. Best soccer player all time Ronaldo 9 Brazil, and Ronaldinho Gaucho 10. And I know soccer, I play it since I was little Koller!!! Football is a sport I watch also but im a bigger fan of Futbol.

I've never heard anyone compare zlatan and Ronaldinho haha. I think you are right about them being world class, but I'm not sure if they're the best. WI be a never ending discussion of course, but the best player I have ever seen is Messi for sure. And I've seen a lot of them play in real life...

In about 2,5 hours the match of the year will begin. Wish us luck!

Het zijn maar kut kakkerlakken! (translate that, it's how we call feyenoord scum :p. You ll probably get something weird though)

The video doesn't play when embedded.

Just press the youtube icon in the video. Its the highlight of the Ajax-Feyenoord game

Posting this one especially for Akis! This one is a classic from the Greek ultra scene: Horto Magiko from Pao Gate 13 Hopefully you're not Olympiakos :p

So you're Olympiakos? What did you think about the referee against Anderlecht? It was a disgrace, wasn't it? The chairman of Olympiakos i known for bribing, right...?

I think so, yes but if you saw the match referee realised that he made a mistake to give us this (fake) penalty! and he didn't give to olympiakos the second penalty which in fact it was at second half..!

I enjoyed seeing the reviews on the players of Brazil. No doubt Ronaldo and Ronaldinho were very good.

I came across this video of the one and only Leo Messi. In my eyes the best player ever!

RIP Johan Cruijff. First time in my life im sad that a famous person dies. Johan is for every Dutch football fan and especially all the Ajax fans more than just a player. He brought Ajax and the national team everything. He brought us from nothing to world fame. Ajax fans are now starting a petition to rename the stadium to the Johan Cruijff Arena.

Johan Cruijff: Always our #14.

Saw that in the news, what a loss, he was a great player and contribution to the national team. Was it in '74 that NL made the WC finals?

It was in 74 yes. Its not really the prices he won that we should remember him for. He contributed a lot the beautiful game. He reinvented how to play. His ideas are still there in Barcelona and Ajax now. Tonight the national team will play France in a friendly. Let's see what kind of honour he will get. They will pause the game in the 14th minute. Next week Ajax will play at home. Most likely there will be back supporter shows.

Ronaldo......... Sorry tuga

koller fizemos 21 remates ou mais e boas oportunidades de golo e nada. Austria fez 3 remates... heheh



Agora contra Hungria, temos que ganhar obrigatoriamente, para ficarmos em primeiro do grupo.

English:

koller made 21 shots or but and good opportunities to score and nothing. Austria made 3 shots ... heheh

Now against Hungary, we have to win necessarily to stay in the first group.

parabéns (?), Tuga!

But what is Ronaldo doing, he seems so stressed..

Funny btw, Portugal after 90 mins this EC:

Portugal - Iceland (1-1)
Portugal - Austria (0-0)
Portugal - Hungary (3-3)
Portugal - Croatia (0-0)
Portugal - Poland (1-1)

Poland never was behind in any game and didn't lose a single match after 90 mins, but they're out and Portugal goes to the semi-final...

True Koller, Portugal only draws for 90 minutes.

But what matters is winning.

I do not mind to stay tied for 90 minutes in the next game and win again on penalties.


GO PORTUGAL !!!!!!!!!!!!
