because I even find spaniard commentary boring, I only like one guy from spain, check this video out, no matter how many times I watch it I get chicken skin. But i guess you have to understand somewhat spanish to appriciate the narration. i got to admit i watched it drunk one time and a tear of joy fell down my face lol
it was messi's 1st clasico at home.
how can you not get O_O!!! with this?
I want to punch someone when I hear so many gooooooooooooooooooooals lol
That was 22 seconds of "GOOOOAAAAAAL". That doesn't add excitement or passion from the commentator. It's just incredibly annoying.
There is no passion in it, it's just as if it's scripted. They do it with any type of goal, regardless whether it's good, important or beautiful.or not. If you were really impressed, you'd go mental, not just yell the same thing all the time. Here's some scoring passion for ya:
There's always a lot more passion when you're commentating your own country in the World Cup
Aaaah Dennis Bergkamp, my favourite player of the last 20 years :D. I saw it on the tv live when I was 10 and I still remember it perfectly :D Probably one of my favourite WC goals too !
After the match everyone in the city (was watching in a pub in Amsterdam) just went home. The energy felt like there could be fights starting up all around us. Everyone was so depressed.
Hopefully his 30th goal too! Interesting that Hodgson is going with Gerrard (I'm assuming) as the holding midfielder again. He did well against Moldova though, so why not.
Indeed, he plays that role for Liverpool now too as can't get up and down enough. Should be fun.
By the way if you are interesting.

I've never seen anything like that.
Should have seen our loss against italy in 2006. The situation was really bad, especially since we have lots of italian immigrants.
To be honest, the Netherlands fully deserved to lose that final. They committed some really really ugly fouls in that game, most notably De Jong's kick against Xabi Alonso, and got away with it

We should have been out vs Brazil, where we clearly were worse, but won with some luck. But hey, whether fair or not, that kinda stuff still hurts a lot, haha. I remember standing on a square with about 20k people, everyone was so depressed after that. I walked home and almost cried, had to fight back the tears .
As an England fan you cry every world cup/euros as the same happens all the time. Play like shite, scrap through to round of 16 or even round of 8. Play like shite some more, some how get to penalties. Everyone is so hyped, anything can happen...oh wait no it's England another loss. Everyone stands in shock at losing on penalties for the 100th time and wonders what could of been etcetc.
I read today that Lambert has converted all of his 29 penalties in the last 5 years. I guess you should keep him for the World Cup then. Just sub him in @ 115 min and everything is ok. Well at least one pen.
On that topic: Has he chances to be on the WC team? Or is he just in because of injuries atm?
I guess it is at the moment in terms of Striker position with Welbeck and maybe even Sturridge competing for the LW spot as we are adventurous in our 4-3-3 we play lolol xD
I see him potentially going to the world cup if Andy Carroll doesn't have a good season, nor does Defoe.
Austria's group could be decided today. If Austria and Ireland draw while Sweden wins, Germany and Sweden are pretty much confirmed through
Austria still has a chance to secure second place themselves if we beat Ireland today, Sweden later (we beat Sweden 2-1 at home) and then don't mess up our last game against the Faroe Islands who have historically been our worst enemy
Lambert should be 3rd choice behind Rooney and welbeck tbh. He's been great so far in the qualifiers. As for Gerrard, i really wish the media would stop saying hes better than he is. One pundit compared him to a quarterback in terms of importantce and making plays, me and my brother who watch NFL laughed out loud. Hes not that good, he scores nice goals out of no-where which is very useful, and he tried amazing long balls all the time that pundits fail to mention, which results in one amazing pass every now and then. In terms of tackling and intelligent midfield play hes mediocre at best these days. Sorry but the England punditry on gerrard really gets on my nerves. He gives the ball away far to often, and gets picked out as motm because he scores a great goal or an amazing assist, but the rest of his play is so sub-par.
