US vs Brazil
first time for US in a FIFA championship
Brazil has won 14 of the last 15 games vs the US
also am i the only one suprised by spains very close win vs south africa earlier this AM?
should be one hell of a game one way or another, heres hoping that the US plays as well today as they did the other day
the win vs spain should vault them into the top 10 world wide though...thats something
also, i am even more excited for the coming world cup next year!

Brazil
Nine individual nations registered their intention to bid with FIFA by the February 2009 deadline: Australia, England, Indonesia, Japan, Qatar, Mexico, Russia, South Korea, and the United States. Additionally Belgium and the Netherlands registered to bid together, as have Portugal and Spain.4 FIFA confirmed the list of bidders in March, with South Korea and Qatar bidding for 2022 only.5 It had been widely reported that Egypt had registered an intention to bid, it was indeed alluded to on the FIFA website, but the president of the Egyptian Football Association denied that any more than an enquiry in principle had been made.6
In October 2007, FIFA ended the continental rotation policy. Instead the last two tournament host confederations are ineligible, leaving Africa ineligible for 2018 and South America ineligible for both 2018 and 2022.7 Other factors in the selection process include the number of suitable stadia, and their location across candidate nations. Due to the number of bids received by FIFA, this World Cup is expected to be the most hotly contested bid ever, mainly due to the revision in FIFA’s rotation policy. As a result, Sepp Blatter has said that FIFA may follow the International Olympic Committee and have a preliminary elimination of bids some time before the final ceremony.8

Ehh.
They looked out of it. Still scored 2 goals in the last minute to win it only to have a free kick in the 93rd take them to extras. Still won 3-2. Torres, Villa, Xavi etc didn’t play most of the 2nd half.

welll
for most of the match Spain looked alot like Brazil did vs SA in the last match. But they did break through with goals in the 88th and 89th minute like Brazil did late in the game. The 2nd goal for Spain was pretty much luck, but they deserved to win. But honestly, the last 20 min of the normal time were probably the most exciting 20 min of soccer i’ve ever seen. Just so much great action with 4 goals in that time period.

Rules question
How long can the goalie hold it in his possession?
Can he just burn time until they pressure him, or does he have a set amount of time?

I got a good question for you long time EPL fans
what do you think about the EPL’s almost league wide disregard for using large scale mathematical analysis of player performance and team trends? That is one of the areas that the US owners might be able to exploit.
I was talking to a friend of mine that was referring to the US/Spain game plan was based upon how poorly Spain was on scoring on crosses and how the US basically forced then to cross while shutting down the individual play.

I think the Americans
learned that a game most considered a fairly simple analysis for the first 80 years of baseball could be drilled down even further and further refined.
Think about how useful cross data, shot tendency, pass rates, goalie hot/cold info …. could be if exploited in the correct manner.

From what I understand...
…there’s a lot of newer theories that could be applied to soccer that just aren’t right now.
From training (a lot of players party a lot during the season) to ways they ‘measure’ a good game by an individual player. I guess the best way to put it is developing stats would be so much harder for soccer than baseball that they all just trust scouts.
by GhettoBear04 on Jun 28, 2009 2:07 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
From the reasearch I have been able to do
there is no setup like Stats Inc or Ellias for World Soccer or the EPL. With how the Pitch fx and Hit f/x systems are being applied to baseball are very simple adaptation could be made for tracking the ball on the pitch. That in itself would provide a wealth of info. Just off of ball movement tendencies and shot data a team or firm could make a killing if they were willing to use it.

The problem is that I don't really know the best way to contact the people would give a shit
Beane has done a lot for the combination of statistical analysis and soccer but there are so many ares that could be exploited that it would be a real coop in cutting edge information.
What I really need is a general idea of what they have already and then go from there. I didn’t play soccer growing up so I am unfamiliar with the standard scouting report and tape breakdown that is normally provided. From there you can design a comprehensive look at what needs to be created.
So if anyone has any ideas, TELL ME!!! and we will go from there…

I like that the USA is letting Brazil outlet at will to that guy
He ain’t doing shite with the ball from the wing. Spector is well-placed against the better left side of the Brazil attack.

Is it just me
or does the US team seem to have as much straight line speed as Brazil…
For the longest time the US was always behind on physical characteristics, with them pulling closer to equal the gap in overall team skill has closed much more than I every would have thought.
