Indonesia vs Uruguay Friendship Soccer Game

Indonesia versus Uruguay (also known as La Celeste team)...

live from Gelora Bung Karno Senayan, Jakarta ...

interesting game, of course, don't talk bout the scores at all ..

we know all the fact that:

Indonesia is in rank 130 something from the world...

Uruguay is in rank 7 of the world...

(not to mention the progress record of Uruguay is the 4th winner in the World Cup 2010 just few months ago)

Indonesia leads the game by 1-0 in the first half of game by BOAS, one of the Indonesian national team ...

what do we expect ... we know that we are going to lose, right ..

it's not the score we care about ...

what i like bout this game is:

• we have to see how Uruguay team play, eventhough they only play against Indonesia, but they still give 100% of their efforts, not looking down at all ... with the world level player like Suarez, still playing seriously ...
• another thing we can see the difference of the physical endurance, the speed, the stability of the players in bringing the ball is just whole different level from the two ..

Anyway, it's good to see them in Jakarta .. yesterday night, i was watching news, i saw those Uruguay soccer players were walking around in one of the mall in Jakarta, wo wo wo... soo tall and looking reallly good ..  athletes, oh athletes ...    they were surrounded by crowds asking for signatures and photo taking... hehehe ..

oo, btw, Diego Forlan doesn't come ... but Luis Suarez and the other world cup players do come ... 

Some FootBall Sport Drama

i miss the FIFA World Cup , it has filled up my insomnia nights with some good games

well, since there is nothing left to say bout the games, since it was all over with the SPAIN Victory ..

trying to see another point of view bout World Cup 2010 ..

from times to times, FIFA World Cup had always successfully drawn millions even billions people's attention, from the football sport itself, the countries that played, especially all the men on those field, those handsome macho men ... ck ck ck... just look at them in action... some are very young, some are already in their thirties which are already considered old in football ... 

and not miss in every FIFA is the dramatic atmosphere in some games ...

Some reality sport drama had been shown several times during this FIFA World Cup 2010,

and we never know the end of the drama until the game stops  ...

I am not talking about losing or winning,

but more to what happened in some interesting & attractive football games ...

Some legitimate goals had been disqualified,

Unguilty men became a victim by getting the warning yellow card, or even red carded ...
wuih ... wuih ... wuih ...

Losing a game in this international level game is definitely the hardest part ...

but every game must have a winner and a loser ...

and looks like being the winning part is just about everything ...
it's proven on the below capture

the famous God's hand of Maradona now transferred to Suarez the Uruguay team who tried to save the goal from Ghana shots by hand, and he is not a keeper. .... 

the handball caused him red carded right away and Ghana rewarded by penalty kick ... Suarez was cried his eyes out, however in about 2 minutes after he saw that Ghana can not make that penalty kick he was overjoy in a sudden ... what a dramatic weird moment ... i remembered that time i was totally stunned , not sure if i am pro bout his handball, but for a second there,, i was just woow , what just happened ...

this is interesting ,,,

ever heard some people still say Men Can't Cry ...

for me, if crying make you feel good, then go ahead do it ...
nothing wrong in crying ... 

just looking at these men below crying ... 

it just make my hearts aches a bit ...

the commitment & hard work that they had given so far,

as if they just flew away

Looking at Huh Jong Mo trying to console Park Chu Yong who is in terrible sad of their lost against Uruguay .. Huh Jung Mo himself, i am sure was in a down moment too but he go out there and give his support and his consolation to his men ...

Even Park Ji Sung, the Korean's captain is putting down his head ..

Cha Du Ri - usually i loved his toughness and physical endurance, but this time i felt his heart was crushed ...

another Cha Du Ri really crying ...

Takeshi Okada, Japan team's coach is consoling Yuichi Komano, the one who failed to make that penalty goal to Paraguay's net ... he was totally crushed & poured down crying when he missed his kick ...  it's okay Komano, it hasn't meant to be... you played ur best ...

Robert Vitteck (is it right spelling??)  from Slovakia losing from Netherland (i hope my memory is right!!) ... Vitteck, calm down, after all, it was not a shame at all losing from Netherland, you & your team already beat Azzuri team, Italia, world cup winner 2006,,, you made those 2 goals playing with Italy that was a great performance ...

Italy, one of my favorite team, but even before the FIFA World Cup begin, i already knew that they won't be able to survive ... remember when I was cheering because of the Intermilan's winning against Bayern Munich at the League Championship ... Intermilan is indeed an Italian League but wait a minute, pay attention closely to their intermilan's players,, there is no leading italian player in that club ...   i personally think Italy is too late in regenerating their players ... that's why in this World Cup they are just like another team ...

the embarrassment of Italy team lost against Slovakia 2-3 ... the winner of World Cup 2006 lost by underdog team ... 

but still i can feel their sorrow & sadness ...

Fabio Cannavaro, the italian team captain consoling his team mate .....

and for the last game, the Final Game Spain vs Netherland ...  i was in favor of Spain, yet when i watched those Netherlands, Robben, Van Persie, and some others cried at the ends .. i couldn't bare to watch them either ...

everybody has played and done their part well ... it wasn't the time for Netherland yet this 2010 .... 

This Time for ESPANOLA

This Time FIFA World Cup 2010 goes to SPAIN

Spain WIN not by many but who cares

They win anyway ... 1-0 against Netherland 

So the title for Spain is complete,

The Winner of Euro Cup 2008

and FIFA World Cup 2010

i should say that the game itself is not very interesting,

intense of course, 

there were some goal shots chances flown away

either from Spain or Netherland

personally, i was happy when Fabregas was put in the field

i always liked to see him play

but in this World Cup, just like Fernando Torres who is in lots of injuries, 

barely seen him played

i enjoyed the moment even though he came at the 80 some minutes,

only get closer looks of him at the 2x15' extra times

like any other game,

there is always pro and contra

about the single goal that Spain make to win over Netherland

not important to be discussed anyway 

Viva SPAIN ...

at times like this, i can only say Being Number 1 is always THE BEST

World Cup GOOGLE

i always like how GOOGLE change their appearance at different season ...

even GoOgle celebrate the World Cup 2010 ..

here's the new appearance for this time ...

AAARRGGHHHH.....

Lemes aahhhh....
every single one of my dear  team lose ...
one by one,
first        :  South Korea lose 1-2 to Uruguay
second   :  USA lose 1-2 to Ghana (at the same day, imagine my emotions)
third       :  Japan lose 5-3 to Paraguay by penalty kick (this is the best match)

The Drama in every single match ... all of them involved very emotional of mixed feeling ... that's football, it can make you joy, laugh, cry, sad, happy, .... shout, yell, scream, angry, mad ... all those mixed feelings and mixed expressions ....

but from all of the games in the this big 16th round,
these three teams made their best fight till the end ..
only difference 1 goal with the winner , and all the goals has been very meaningful.

South Korea --- goal by Lee Chung Young 

USA             --- goal by Landon Donovan

and Japan      --- ungoal by Komano (i think he is the most stressed person in the world now, becoz it clearly he was the only person who didn't goal, poor him.  i have to admit that he's been playing very good and doing his part very good in that field for the 120 minutes -- the luck factor is not in him yet) ... the penalty goals by Honda, Hasube (the captain team), Endo have done their kicks successfully. 

before the last penalty kick by Paraguay

the sadness & cry of the team after the missing shots

Hopefully these teams will be much better in the next FIFA World Cup or other international episodes with players who are ready and become much better in techniques, skills, mentally, and experiences by times.

so even though they lose, but they still can lift their heads high enough, unlike some teams who lose with rather an embarrassment.

Congrat to Japan

Yes!!!

Very excited & happy, 

at least now the world can not say the asian football team are underdog team anymore.

they have proven with great achievement...

2 Asia teams pass to the big 16th ...

Go Asia, make us proud...

Japan beat Denmark 3-1

Keisuke Honda is great team player,

and the other significant key player of course is Eiji Kawashima is great goalkeeper...
without his capability holding all shots, it would've been nothing 

Congratulation to Japan...

time for me to sleep now...

Games to the Big 16th

As in the Group A,  Uruguay and Mexico already passed this round...

Playing at 01.30am wib:  

Global tv aired South Korea vs Nigeria 

RCTI aired Argentine vs Greece.

(i believe it's 03.30 am Seoul time, and everybody still watched this very important game)   ... the koreans are watching the game together somewhere in seoul...

In group B, Argentine, unquestionable & no doubt be the first winner of Group B.

My favorite team, South Korea, thank God even though they played draw 2-2 versus Nigeria,

South Korea is in the Runner Up and also pass to the Big 16th...

if not mistaken, this is the Highest Achievement for South Korea in the FIFA World Cup,

playing outside their country based.  Good for Them and Keep it Up!

South Korea Government has already announced The Prize for every single person in the team, 

for the achievement in the big 16th is:

Cash Money: 170 million won or US $ 143,000 or Rp 1.5 M (1.5 billion Rupiah) ...

well, oh, well, great reward for this achievement...

If they played like yesterday, with high spirit and good techniques,

I really hope and wish South Korea will go on to the next round...

One step at a time ... Fighting!!! ... Victory!!!

By the way, yesterday at the South Korea vs Nigeria game,

I saw The BEST PERFECT GOAL via  free kick shot by Park Chu Young.

The Kick was perfect, very accurate , even though Park Chu Young (he is on the right picture) was not in the straight line with the Gate... 

and I say this not becoz it was from South Korea team, but it is truly the best kick...

The football commentator also said it several times over and over again... 

he said as if it is already measured its accuracy when the ball has to shift several degrees in order to get inside... wow...

Anyway, South Korea as the runner up will play against Uruguay the first winner of Group A, 

Uruguay in this FIFA World Cup 2010 has played well in their third games...

Go USA!

I would very much eager to see South Korea will pass to the Big 8..

wouldn't it be something if Asia Team can go to Big 8 in the World Cup...

Victory Korea! (support song by Super Junior for Korea world cup football team)

1 more Asia team which is Japan will have its chance tomorrow, i think..

hopefully Japan too can pass to the Big 16th...

Japan, Gambatte!!!  Semangat !!!

Tonight, a very close call for USA team...

USA almost doesn't make it , good thing, at the very last minute, at the 91 minutes,

Donovan (on the bottom pict - no 10)  score 1 goal ... that makes the US team be the first winner of the Group...

Go USA!

"All the Reds" slogan

this time for FIFA World Cup 2010,

the team which represent us from Asia are:

South Korea, Japan,

and there is also North Korea...

my personal hope is that South Korea and hopefully Japan

can go ahead

the year 2010, South Korea choose the slogan:

ALL THE REDS

Here is the pictures of the slogan.

Seen in the pictures, some Korean actors like Bae Yong Joon, Son Ye Jin, Song Yun Ah, etc are also promoting the campaign..

Korean football team

btw, Bae Yong Joon takes part in the "All the Reds" campaign for the Korean national football

this year going to FIFA World Cup 2010,

it wasn't an easy journey at all for the Korean football team,

they had to really struggle, lost the games several times ,

and if not mistaken, they almost didn't pass the pre qualifications / Qualifying Round

but here they are, they made it to the World Cup 2010,

something to be praised for,

i am happy for them as well,

the first opening game they played against Greece at June 12th 2010,

and thankfully they won the game by 2-0

just few hours passed by,

they have to play against Argentine,

well, it was a hard game, lost the game by 1-4 -

total shock to me ~ not to mention dissappointment

even though i know that most probability of Argentine win is about 80%,

i gave 20% chance for korean becoz hoping for miracle, hehehe,,,

don't know what was wrong,

but i didn't see the enthusiasm and spirit from them since the beginning of the game,

as i saw the fast interesting game played by Korean at the other day against Greece

do they feel low self esteem against one of the favorite n top team ..

don't know, i guess they are now in the deepest regret as well...

i am not an expert in football,

but i was disappointed in how they spread out too widely during the whole game,

leaving so many open n empty spaces and inviting the enemy to come inside too easily,

good thing after Haquin shoot 3 goals in the match,

Diego Maradona, the argentine coach decided to put him on the base,

otherwise i couldn't imagine how many goals more he will create..

still love them and wish them luck for their next match against Nigeria,

which is also has a very good Goalkeeper, and have good defense...

i was hoping for a SERIES Game between Greece vs Nigeria,

so that it will open up better position for South Korea,

but i guess it didn't happen, Greece won 2-1,

so the status for Korea and Greece are even 3 points.

so next game, Korea has to win against Nigeria ,

not just winning but they have to have good scores differences,

and better hope Greece doesn't score against Argentine on their game..

so there would be an opportunity to go the the next round...

Go South Korea, the Asian tiger team, Go Red Devils team

Go Make Asia proud...
