This is stupid…
no, this is funny ahahahah
I guess i’d have to be a fan to understand…
I don’t understand either….
Well if you watched the England vs USA World Cup match last night, you would.
Yeah if you didn’t watch the game it’s difficult to understand.
England is a nation in which soccer is popular while in the USA it is not that popular. England is normally a strong soccer nation and was expected to win the game easily.
Englan even took the lead in the beginning of the game, leading 1-0. However, because a mistake of the English Keeper Green, USA was able to tie within the first half of the game. This is what is shown above.
For the rest of the game, no other goals occured so that means that the USA tied although they were not believed to do so.
This is a win for the US even though they did not win the game.
If you are not into soccer, you just don’t understand.
And green actually looked stupid there!
Naturally, most of the commenters on Failblog are nerds who don’t watch sports, so this is kind of out of place.
Here is the fail, nerds
He wouldn’t fail there:

btw, OMG those labradors are HUGE in africa!!!
this should be titled: England Fail, USA Draw?
nope, England draw, so does America.
You’d think the groundskeepers could turn off the leaf-blowers until the game is over. Jeez.
As a nerd i have to say that every game is screened on my 4th monitor unless i replace it with the boinc screensaver…
You mean a ‘bonic’ screensaver? Like animated boners?
Glad those are my two only comments here then.
Good explanation. But, it’s pronounced ‘Football’, not ‘soccer’. As we created the sport, we get to name it, and we chose ‘Football’ as a name, not ‘soccer’.
Actually ‘Football’ or ‘soccer’ was created in Ancient China and a similar version in Rome. Just because it became popular and was revamped in Britain doesn’t mean it belongs to them. Your argument has been rendered invalid sir.
And apparently you haven’t heard of the language barrier. Different cultures use different words, get over it.
football is not just kicking a ball
Actually I believe in England soccer is called a “lorry”
Yeah, and fries are probably called… … … oh god…
Only when they’re REALLY good. I get called “oh god”, too, but only when I’m REALLY good.
This game that you reckon was created in ancient China was not football (soccer, soccerball, or whatever you bell ends call it), it was just some people kicking a ball about. Football consists of two teams of eleven men trying to get the ball into the opposing teams goal without using their arms, which was invented in England.
And by the way, I hope you enjoy that crude oil we sent you, we didn’t know where to put it, so we left it just by Louisiana for you.
Lots of love,
America’s mother (Britain)
can you explane me then how it can be that the first foodball rules were written down in germany?
No. I could EXPLAIN, though I feel it’d be wasted on your lacking mental capacity.
I’d like to point out that in Germany, they call it Fußball. Not soccer. Football. Explain that.
Two teams of eleven MEN????
Listen Limey Arsewipe, it’s not just men who play
women soccer sucks, get over it.
You were on a roll there for a second, but when you started talking about the oil you just made us all look bad.
If you’re so obsessed with fußball, maybe you should learn how to play properly?
no people from china invented kicking against a ball
england invented the game CALLED FOOTBALL.
okay, just for you, the ancient chinese version and the roman version where TOTALLY different, different size balls, different size pitch, different number of players ect its like saying rugby and football are the same, just so you know so england DID create this sport called football and thusly get to name it
Differant cultures may use different words but they are still wrong. The language is called english. ergo we named football “football” and yankball “yankball” the reasons as follows;
- You play football using primarily just feet.
- Only americans play yankball
Germans call their country Deutschland but we call it Germany. If they don’t get to decide what their country is named, you can’t tell me what to call soccer. heheehe Get over it, Americans will always call it soccer.
Yeah, running wild holding ball in your hands is certainly a FOOTball. It is quite strange those stupid europeans call “football” a game where you actually have to use your foot to play a ball.
Instead of calling the football game “soccer” you’d rather call your “american football” rugby or something like it.
Rugby > American Football + Football
Soccer is an ENGLISH word. look it up. We only stopped calling it Soccer when the yanks started calling it Soccer. Special relationship my aRSE
THIS!
Handegg.
Actually in the early version of American football the 3 points were scored by kicking the ball like a field goal and 1 was given for carrying it across. Eventually it was found that it is harder to get across by carrying it so the scoring was changed.
Yes, originally you could either run with the ball or kick it. No forward passes were allowed. As a result, the kicking game was much more important than it is now. Hence the name.
that’s known as rugby
more precisely handegg
http://9gag.com/gag/25967/
Um rugby was the original game invented, yet again in england, and when we colonised the USA The rules were misused and hey we have american football. It is the same situation with cricket and baseball.
That’s because they speak a different language you pillock. Australians call their country Australia just like us because they speak English.
hah!
Fail.
I love how this is touted by brits as an example of typical American arrogance, when its actually a typical example of English ingnorance of their own history.
The word soccer is of English origin.
It’s slang for ‘Association Football’ which at the time was the formal name for soccer to distinguish it from ‘Rugby Football’.
Just because you all later decided to just call them rugby and football doesn’t mean you can go back and uncreate the word some of us were already using.
So the next time you feel the urge to correct somebody just cram a ham in it.
evolve
correct on the ‘soccer’ origin, but it was already being called football when somebody in Rugby decided to pick up the ball and run with it.
Plenty of ignorant people (and arrogant people) over here, sure – but how ignorant and arrogant is it to call a sports tournament a “World Series” when only one country participates? And can it really be called a sport if the players need a belt to hold their pants up? Discuss.
I forgot that all Americans are baseball.
Two countries, actually. Just sayin’. . . .
Is Canada no longer a country?
Actually TWO countries participate in it, as Canada also has teams.
@moosepod, Canada also has team.
Toronto Blue Jays – no other Major League Baseball in Canada anymore; the Expos left Montreal and became the Washington (D.C.) Nationals for the 2005 season, where they remain.
Your knowledge of the invention of rugby is extrememly distorted.
Wasn’t it invented when some people playing football in a school campus in Rugby, England, picked up the ball and ran with it? That’s at least what I was taught at school…
Dude, you people created cricket! Can it really be called a sport if you need a belt to hold your pants up, plus a dapper little hat and a sweatervest?
Granted, only “one” country participates in the World Series. All the MLB teams are in America (except Toronto, who has not really been a contender since ’93). However when you look at the countries of origin for all the players you see that it is indeed, a “world series”.
I totally agree, it’s like the Miss Universe pageant. EVERY SINGLE winner has been from Earth! That’s just planeticst.
Actually, although youare technically correct, soccer is a colloquialised word which was used by members of the public rather than officials as the name was still officially association football. Whereas in america, even the officials call it soccer so you technically are incorrect sorry.
P.s. I do not believe that the overall intelligence of the united states is less than in brirain.
shut up, homo
Except the brits were the ones to name is Soccer. Learn history. Fail.
The term soccer originated in England, first appearing in the 1880s as an Oxford “-er” abbreviation of the word “association”, often credited to former England captain Charles Wreford-Brown.
Actually Football is popular in England, what is this soccer you speak of?
Its called Football. The sport you call Football your hands are used 80% of the time………Fail
Your nation has terrible food.
there are 61 mil ppl living in UK, and 300mil in the US.
FOOTBALL is played less in america by percentage, but not that much less by how many actual people live in america
“This is a win for the US even though they did not win the game” Awesome logic xD
Yes, you must have seen the game. Just a big mistake of mr. goalie of England so it became a draw. Don’t know how this pic is funny though. Although it was pretty funny yesterday.
just think that because of this HUGE fail, Slovenia is leading group C, followed by England and USE, then Algeria, thats just sad
i fail, USA thats what happens when u write while watching Serbia Ghana XD
got something against slovenia?
Nothing that works!
A red card maybe?
))
The Brits sure are getting worked about this aren’t they?
I’m from England, I lol’d
Too bad USA has never won a world cup
and Brazil won 5
maybe we should share the love. Give other countries opportunities. The soccer (football) is growing in the U.S. and hopefully in the next century you will have the chance to win it.
USA doesn’t care about soccer but once every four years… so it’s pretty evident why our team tends to suck arse.
The fact that America even got in shows SOME skill. o_o
Well, there are hundreds of countries in the world, we’re only on the 19th World Cup, and a few countries have won it a few times. So there are A LOT of countries that have never one it. XD
wow way to be a total jerk. id like to see you try and do what he does and not fail at life. oh thats right you cant. and for the record, its not his fault the team let the guy get a shot off so dont laugh you conceded jerk
I disagree, I think it’s clever how they stretched out the Fail like a Mexican commentator yelling GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
And it’s clever … because …. ?!?
Because they did it, and you didn’t
You would have had to have watched the game to understand this, to anyone who was wondering. And yes, Green is now the biggest fail on Earth, but is loved by Americans
but the usa didn’t win, therefore this is stupid. now shut up.
But because of this epic fail, they didn’t lose either.
this is reaching……. for something to point your finger at and say FAIL….. basically you thrust your hand in to the bag of FAILDOM and came up ith pathetic attempt at a fail…… therefore and inasmuch and notwithstanding you FAIL
Yeah it was a massive fail on the goalie’s part but that didn’t make it an American win.
Sorry if I’m being naïve but wouldn’t there also have been a massive fail on the US goalie’s part for the final result to have been a draw?
The thing is, the goal on the US was an actual goal. This goalie had perfect form for stopping the ball but it slipped out of his hands, which is the last thing that should happen at the World Cup!!!!
Aye, now that I looked at that again I have to say point taken. Indeed a sadly humungous fail.
you americans don’t know football
But because of this mistake, they didn’t lose, and that makes a world of difference, therefore, this is awesome. Did you even watch the game?
I THINK WE ARE ALL MISSING THE GREAT FAIL IN ALL THIS, BECAUSE IF USA DIDNT LOOSE RIGHT NOW LATER ON THEY ARE GOING TO GET BEATEN BADLY 6-0 SO ITS BETTER FOR THEM TO LOOSE NOW , NOT WIN !!!
you don’t know much about American soccer, do you?
AMERICAN SOCCER???!!!!, US BRITISH INVENTED THE GAME. ANYWAY ITS CALLED FOOTBALL!
Is this why you are so successfull since 1966?
Ooh. X* “How sharper than a serpent’s tooth,” and all that.
And also absolutely true.
But then again I’m not an England fan. I’m Welsh.
actually soccer was around before england even existed, and england actually outlawed soccer in the 14th century
actually football (or soccer, if you wosh) is not just kicking a ball. We can discuss where kicking a ball was invented, but football was definitely invented in england (like baseball, BTW).
O didn’t realise we were playing the American Soccer World Cup…
yes i know that mexico beat them by 5-0
for usa 1 – 1 its a win : )
they just cant play FOOTBALL
It’s a win because most people (wait, I mean most English people) think that England could win the world cup. And then they get beaten by a mediocre team like the US.
Fail indeed. Hahahahaha!
tbh dude, most of us English dont think we can win it, most of us are realistic and think we could perhaps get to the quarter finals or semi’s. & Capello is an idiot for playing Green in the first place, Joe Hart ftw!!!!
It was a draw. If that’s the same as a win for the USA, then you should hang your head in shame.
Well, the US didn’t exactly win but I have to admit I think of it as an England fail that they didn’t beat the USA in that match. Not trying to denigrate anyone but England were not doing their best.
last time though the same thing happened to the italians and they won
The USA held their ground against England. Trust me, the rest of the nations in the World Cup will probably treat the Usarian team as bloody heroes for that.
Well, maybe apart from Colombia.
Colombia is not on the world cup, so, can u elaborate on your comment?
I’d really like to understand it.
Isn’t a draw virtually a loss to a true sportsman?
Surely those with a competitive desire cannot be satisfied with a draw.
You’ve obviously never seen Rocky.
they didnt get beaten it was a draw, but you are right you yanks do have a mediocre team and judging by the number of players in the england team who play at the very top level (world class players) and the fact that they have been given very good odds by the bookmakers, it does seem that england do have a fairly good chance of winning the world cup
‘starling’ intelligence fail.
1st: most of the American team play for British clubs, so they do have some skill otherwise we wouldn’t have them. 2nd: In the first game anything that isn’t a loss is ok. Now they just have to win their next two. 3rd: Green redeemed himself very soon after with a fantastic save. That’s how football works, it’s a mix of skill, flair and luck and I can’t imagine that half the people writing on here regularly watch football or have lived in a country that is different to the one they were born in as you are sooooo hostile!!
i think the fact that england didn’t win is good enough for the americans. capello made some really idiotic decisions they’ll win the other matches geez
Having a sport where you can end a game in a tie is a fair, imho.
*giggles at all the FIFA fans and bats eyelashes*
*facepalm*
where’s the edit button when you need one?
replaces ‘r’ with ‘l’
*looks around hoping no one noticed*
*runsawaywithaquickness*
I love Green
You are definately not british! lol
No he is, he’s just a Norwich City fan.
Me too, so sad to see Norwich boy Rob green make a mistake and everyone criticise him =(
Yeah, by the three Americans who watch soccer.
If you included me, make it two.
You seem to have missed its increased popularity. Sorry Americans don’t watch soccer jokes don’t really work with MLS going strong
Why do 10,000 American kids play soccer every weekend?
So they don’t have to watch it.
no , because they dont want to loose badly against mexicans
loose?
It’s called “soccer”/”football”, not “spelling” & “grammer”
It’s “spelling” & “grammar”, not “spelling” & “grammer”.
Lose FAIL.
the mexicans have a good team though. america, not so much
Why do you call it soccer, it sounds like it sucks, wich it doesn’t the rest of the world calls it football but the thing that YOU call football is mainly played with the ball in you HAND, you only kick it like 20 times in one game or even less, why don’t you call it:americans can’t controll a ball so we call it football and play it with or hands.
All Americans suck ass!!!!
you’re retarted. try not to rage so much when you type, you might actually make sense.
as a canadian bystander i feel the need to say that just because us and the americans call it soccer doesn’t mean you can hate us. although i do agree that americans suck i don’t agree that they suck ass because that would be awkward wouldn’t it? besides there are tons of things that the americans do or say differently than us for example, the letter z; we pronounce it zed whereas they pronounce it zee. we aren’t waging internet wars about that. also they seem to think that apple pie and baseball are of american descent but in truth they are canadian but we don’t care. anyways what I’m trying to get at is that different cultures call and say things differently and its no big deal, so stop making a big deal about it.
why don’t you keep out of it? huh , bub?
Spoken like a true Canadian.
Ok for some of the clueless people on this website, what happened to Green, is an incident you should only be able to find in Little League teams. The simplicity of the error, and how easy it was to avoid it, makes it the biggest soccer fail the world has ever seen. For anyone watching the game, maybe you noticed the commentators never replayed the moment? No one was that coming because it was such as easy save.
This soccer v. ‘football’ discussion is actually quite amusing.
Don’t forget to mention that we (Canada or Canadians) also gave the United States basketball, volleyball and… our football (the game of rugby with protective gear) is more difficult vis-a-vis having ten more yards to run and one less down to do it in. =)
Hahaha…Baseball,Apple pie, and American Football are Canadian?? Wow…what DO they teach you in that country?? Actually all three are derived from or influenced by England. But created in the United States. NOT Canada. Hockey is yours. You can have Hockey. Stay away from our Baseball and Apple Pie…they’re sacred relics. We wage war for less…
As an American you’re quite wrong on the Apple Pie being Canadian. Apple pie existed pre-North American settlement.
WTF IS SOCCER?
I have no idea. Honestly, I’m confused too.
I love u lol who came up with that gay name for football anyway oh yer it was that fat kid who tried to play in his socks usa fat kids fail
Way to comment like a dumbass, kenny.
Hahahahahaha! Win.
lol just because ur fat and never tried to play football in your socks ,no need to cry in to a bucket of kfc and try and rip on me lol bad luck
Soccer is a British term and the Brits are just as fat as Americans these days.
The English.
The word soccer originated in England, and was like a nickname or shorthand for association football. It’s basically the same thing as footy, really.
Actually, one of the kids in my class had World Cup updates on his phone, and everyone each class (about 25 kids) was constantly pestering him about the score. This was the Mexico/South Africa game, and before it started he was giving us updates on how many minutes to starting time left every five minutes. Even the teachers, who usually are very strict on the no-phones-in-class policy, were interested.
I’m American and I was rooting for England. When Green let the goal in, I screamed and got mad… Today, when Germany scored their goals, I was soooo happy! I love Germany!
Traitor…I bet you were watching the match with Osama bin Laden too…here is a ticket to Europe, don’t forget your Earl Grey tea…
and what is with the keeper of Saudi Arabia? (in 2002)
germany won 8:0
this is not a valid definition of “clever”, silrath
Actually al latin american countries scream GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL, not only Mexico.
It’s GOOOOOOOOOOOL
There’s no A
wtf fail its goal lol im sorry but that is the most retarded post I have ever seen, fail at grammar Nazi e.g.(you) win for trolling e.g.(me ) lol Hitler gnome is coming for you!
Actually, you posted the retarded one. It’s not “goal”, you moron! It may be how people call it in England or USA, but not in the latin countries, where it’s “gol” and that’s how they say it (and now read the post who clearly sais about it being used all over Latin America, “not only Mexico”)… fail at trolling!
Thank you =)
lal, stupid twat.
And in Portugal is GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOO!
though I think we’re not going after the 1st games, our team this year is, well… bad
No way, you crazy! You just got 7:0!!
FIRST!!!
You replied to a comment with First? For your own sake, I hope this was an intentional fail.
obviousness fail
answering to a fail fail
FIRST!!!!!
FARTS!!!!!
SEX!
SEXY SEX is SEXUAL!!!
FARTS IS FARTUAL!!!
243!!
Two things – 1) It was a draw, not a win, though I guess that counts for you. 2) This is far from being the worst English goalie screw-up of all time: we didn’t even bring our A-failure game. Not only is our main keeper, David James, nicknamed Calamity James but Gree has a long way to go before he equals this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwG-3KjxzG0. Still, good game – the draw was fair. Best of luck for the rest of the tournament, USA (sincerely).
Oh Lord how could I ever miss this one – this is just agonizing to watch. And I’m german
come on, that isnt his fault. The ball hits a bump or something. Hes no superman, looking into the future and stuff, be nice.
What Superman comics are you reading where he looks into the future?
i agree. it is not even funny.
Yeah , what is fail in this picture ?
the fail isn’t in the picture…. the goal that occurs just before that picture was one
Oh I see. Basically, this was taken out of context, lessening its impact on anyone who doesn’t watch socc-…fut-…whatever the hell it’s called now.
So, they choose a photo and didn’t add anything else, just a stretched out fail, instead of putting a video…
USA fails at owning a brain.
The US owns plenty of brains, but they are kept NiB so as not to become less valuable.
And Portugal fails at…..what have u done to contribute to the world again?
Give us Brazil?
LoL, good one, hence hot Brazilian women, ok, they’ve done some good
pretty sure Brazil and Brazilian women would be there. Might be called something else though.
ssshhh. Don’t tell him
That’s a fail
And you gave us back pizza deliverers, construction workers and prostitutes \o/
At least we don’t have someone like Maitê Proença, I think I even like Socrates better
Brazil!
Circumnavigated the Earth, opened the trade routes with India and the Far East that Columbus failed to open, opened trade links with China and Japan, sponsored the Age of Discovery, discovered, conquered and lost Brazil, became world renowned as explorers, traders and (sadly) slavers.
LOL and what makes you the judge of that? The greatest country on this earth fails at owning a brain?!
Greatest Country in the World? Have you ever been out of America? I’m an american, and I have been all over the world, and I can tell you, America is far from being the greatest country in the world
Sorry you feel that way — when will you be moving?
it’s not about living in usa, dude. it’s about knowing the world.
I have a poopy diaper.
Me too
Yeah, vacationing is awesome when you walk around Europe sipping espresso and taking in the sights… then you remember you have to WORK for a living. Visiting other countries having fun on vacation does not equate to finding better places to live. Fail on you.
yes but European countries have people who generally agree with each other and don’t boast about how awesome their country is.
You must have not gone to France.
he has a point.
Stereotype fail.
My family has gone to France…. soo yeah stereotype fail.
So…all of these “America sucks” and “America fails at owning a brain” posts are actually coming from Americans?
And since when is patriotism such a bad thing? Would you rather the whole country was a bunch of emos? “Yeah, this place sucks, blah blah blah, lets all go slit our wrists”
patriotism is a kind of idiotism. why the hell should you be proud of being born as an american, canadian whatever…? it’s nothing you have done. you can be proud to be intelligent, good-looking, but not to be american, idiot. it’s the american behaviour that everyone around the world hates. you call your own political system a democracy? what the hell do you know about democracy? i can’t see any part of it in the usa… go to switzerland or another european country, THERE you can see democracy
Brits don’t have democracy either. They allow rich industrialists to run their country and don’t have a “one man, one vote” system. It’s quite similar to the US, really. I suppose that’s where there’s so much “hatin’” between the two.
no you are right. We have a one person, one vote system. What have you got over there? Oh yes I remember two right wing parties, and if anyone in America even mutters the word ‘socialist’ everybody in the vacinity has a heart attack, starts boarding up the windows and buying more ammo.
So, your point is that it’s stupid for me to be proud of where I was born, because it’s not a choice that I made, but everyone around the world hates me for it.
FYI, I’m Canadian. Dumbass.
You’re the idiot… If you can’t be proud to have been born in your country, because it is nothing you have done, then how the hell can you be proud to be intelligent?? Did you make your brain? You might have trained it, but then again, the people that inhabit a country have also made it better (or worse sometimes…) by shapping it. I can be proud of whatever I want, and damn right I’m proud to be Portuguese!!
Comment fail!
I dont remember germany being nationalistic, ever..
Fact is that the USA is far from being first on the list of best places in the world to live according to many researches and on many different points.
But anyway, this pic isn’t funny taken out of context.
You won’t think so after living in Africa.
every country has its weaknesses
not just that…
What if an English guy posted this?
Portuguese, Do you even know what you’re talking about?
England fails at owning a decent goal keeper.
I think it was during the *gasp* World Cup.
it was infact a the world cup 2010 in south africa..
you can find the goal here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEivFWrdPxQ skip to 1:56
It is called football, and has been since before Americans started calling it ‘Soccer’, and is played by all of the world and not just its creating country. There is nothing fail about that picture, the fact that USA take it as a fail is.
USA are going to get boned.
Soccer’s ghey.
You’re ghey.
Americans call it soccer so as not to mix it up with American football. What doesn’t make sense about that?
What doesn’t make sense is why Americans call their football, football when they rarely use their feet in the moving of the ball
But we didn’t name it that, one of our great grandfathers who was probably drunk at the time did…nice avatar btw….Daft Punk FTW!
Football is what’s being played at the world cup.
The american version of rugby should be referred to as ‘handegg’.
The English started calling it soccer first. :3
Yeah, I was really expected a video when I saw this in my RSS feed (having seen it live).
Yep, me too.
Yea, the goalie just straight-up failed. It was a dribbler shot and it was slow, and the British goalie just let it go through! haha, dumb brits
on the replay, you’ll see he stopped it with his gloves, and with his body behind him, the problem was he was slightly to the right, had he been dead center with the ball, it would of never even got close to go in. the ball essentially slipped through his gloves, so to the guy who said “dumb brits” we aren’t that dumb when we can identify a one in 60 chance shot.
Dumb Brits? I don’t believe the Scots or Welsh were playing today. Who’s dumb now? R-tard.
Hang on… England is a part of Great Britain… Green IS British…
Yes, but there is a team for Wales and I believe one for Scotland. You see the UK is a union of three countries, England, Scotland, and Wales; so the team England represents only England and not all of Britain.
Well yes, but He’s still a Brit. It’s like one of those stupid math problems… All English are Brits but not all Brits are English…
Actually that’s Great Britain. UK is England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland
Geography fail
How, I forget N. Ireland, because of the fact it’s not Great Britain. mkay? I am right about everything else.
Wales is technically a principality – hence not appearing on the Union flag.
Great Britain is a union of four countrys! England, Wales, Scotland and N.Ireland!!! Get it right! also Gilbralta and I’m sure lots of others I can’t remember!
Actually. Great Britain consists of only England, Scotland and Wales. The United Kingdom consists of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. So Jamothy… get it right yourself, douchebag!
Really, well I’m from N.Ireland and on my passport it says I’m a British citizen. Guess they must have got it wrong, I’ll send it back for a replacement shall I?
Well the US used to be part of Britain as well. so that means this match was a battle of Original and Extra Crispy!
Wales is NOT a nation. Everyone shut up about Wales. They suck.
Um, s’cuse me, nothing wrong with Wales.
For instance, who knows that Wales is not a country, it is actually a Principality.
Erm… Northern Ireland?
or northern ireland!!!
It wasn’t a British goalkeeper it was an English one, Dumb American
Please see cjarvis reply above and learn logic…it will keep you from looking stupid.
” All English are Brits but not all Brits are English…” – cjarvis
Please see gravitykiller’s reference to cjarvis’s reply above, dumb non-American.
Concerning sports we are English, not British. If it was a British goalkeeper there would be players from the other countries on our team. But there is not, we are Team England so therefore we are called english not brtish when we talk about the team.
How about the British and Irish Lions? It’s a Rugby side… And Rugby is a sport…
Well played…
Edit *concerning football*
Logic fail
You got to be English to understand that one mate
well you brits are relatively well off: Germany is a composite from 16 countries (I wont list them all now)
can you imagine how difficult that is
And the Americans are any better? England gave you the game so you should be thanking them for allowing you to leave the field with some face.
haha oh please, as if England was being nice. England just botched up the match. I don’t think anyone contests that England is the better team. But they played terribly today
England had the ball 70% of the time
and still failed to win.
dude, the ball is coming faster than you think
yeah but not that one ahah
your calling britan dumb for letting usa have a goal from a sh*t shot, well usa are beyond dumb for letting a shot in in the first 4 minutes.
Hows that for you?
(no discrimination on USA, im just sticking up for my country:P)
Britain
because Americans have NEVER made a stupid mistake? YOU haven’t? Right. Piss off.
TWO WORDS, GEORGE BUSH
I’M SORRY I WASN’T OLD ENOUGH TO VOTE D;
If you’re going to troll at least get it right, Britain and England are two different things, Britain is an Island made up of Scotland, Wales and England, if you’re from that Island, you are British.
The U.S didn’t tie with Britain last night, they tied with England.
Gerard Butler, Robert Carlyle, David Tennant, all of these are British actors, NOT English, because they come from Scotland, GET IT NOW?
England X USA for World Cup. Green (England GK) failed xD
Green had the ball comfortablely then it slipped and went into the goal… although it is very stupid making this… like America didn’t even win it was a 1-1 draw
I refuse to watch a sport that can go on and no one wins. I also refuse to accept the logic that a 0-0 game was a good game because everyone played defense well. I find baseball boring as hell, but I’d watch 10 baseball games before watching a bunch of fairies prance around and fall over pretending to be hurt every opportunity they get.
spoken like someone who doesnt understand the first thing about soccer.
I assume you dont watch football either, right?
You do realize that football is a sport where a game can go on and no one wins. There are ties in the NFL.
and would you call a football game that ends 10-3 a good defensive game? Its no different than a 1-0 soccer game.
Actually I don’t, but for the love of God football is far more interesting that soccer. How often are their ties due to NO ONE being able to at least score a field goal?
are there… I typed do their games end… but then retyped my sentence, so I am playing defense to grammar nazis.
Why would so many countries take football seriously, that is pretty much every country apart from America? Maybe every country apart from America is really stupid and none of us have realised that American football is a more interesting sport. Yes we are all stupid please teach us your interesting game so that we too can be more like you. Is there some place that I can leave my self awareness please?
American football is just rugby with prophylaxis, but I do like rugby, soooo *shrugs*
American football is just rugby for sissies
Well Britain doesn’t play “American Football” because we have Rugby, it’s a little bit like American Fooball, except you play without armour and “padding” it’s a lot more dangerous and interesting to watch.
Search for a Rugby game on Youtube, you will see why the rest of the World play Football and Rugby, rather than Baseball and American Football.
Actually, while I don’t care for American football at all, I must point out that there are leagues (very small ones, but they’re still there) of American football in Europe.
Plus, a study showed that while you get hit three times as much in rugby, you get hit three times as hard in American football.
Touchy person are we? I hate soccer. You love soccer. Deal with it and maybe you’ll be a real adult.
Because watching a play every 30 seconds before they take another breather is really interesting.
You have a point, but on the other hand the plays themselves are FAR more interesting than watching a couple people at a time fight for the ball.
Occasionally somebody gets near the other team’s goal, or there’s a corner kick and things are interesting, but on the whole not so much.
Sport’s not supposed to be about winning and losing, but about measuring yourself against other people/teams. If two teams are equally good, then its more representative if they tie than to award a win to one team based on little more than luck.
He feels soooo bad right now, and to be honest, the ball pretty much slipped past his gloves if you watch the re-play.
i guess it’s that jo’bulani’s fault lol
we’ll hear about that ;p
USA still not gonna make it through…
True that
A team that reaches a tie against England can beat Algeria or Slovenia – The next round is very much possbible.
I’m pretty sure they’re gonna make it through.
I’m Belgian, we always like a good underdog in the next round.
So, next game against Slovenia?
boo. fail indeed but a shallow win.
This happened, I cheared so loud and got so excited. Then I started to laugh.
FAAAAAAAAAAAIL! what an ass! -.-
USA Win FAIL.
I don’t care about you americans!
Good god man, not being able to find us on a map merely proves your ignoramus. Don’t start setting a trend for all intelligent Americans!
Robert Green is known for being a bit of a plonker. One time when the england b-team played belarus he went up to give a goal kick, slipped, injured himself for the next couple of weeks and then one of belarus’s players (a belorussian?) came and tapped it in. Typical england.
Want to re-write that? Probably meant ignorance. An ignoramus is an ignorant person. So it’s “your ignorance” or “you’re an ignoramus.” It’s not “your ignoramus.”
Unless it’s the royal your. As in “I bow before your ignoramous.”
no, that would be, i bow before your ignorance. america sucks!!
That went over your head.
‘Your Highness’ refers to a person. Replace ‘highness’ with ‘ignoramus’ as a title and you get ‘Your Ignoramus’.
It is if he’s referring to the ignoramus that you own.
Tried way to hard on that one.
Are you forgetting that if it wasn’t for us “Stupid Foreigners” you wouldn’t even play the game? Didn’t think about that one did you?! At least the sports we invent are played all over the world (and can actually identify those countries on a map with ease)… Can’t really claim that victory can you?
Now, go and sit back in the corner and pretend you have the intelligence to understand what I have typed.
He’s also forgetting that without ‘stupid foreigners’ he probably wouldn’t even be here in the first place. (assuming he is a white or black male)
Who created it? many historians agree that they found the Native Americans playing a form of soccer/football from before the invaders had a chance to teach them a sport. The claim that England invented the sport is FALSE, it is true that England did establish the first set of official rules. O and that the sport was also banned for a while in England. History is so neat
the game was played in its original format in medieval europe, mainly england, then at some point in the 1800′s the games modern rules were made, in england. history is so neat when you actually get it right.
China had a game where they would stand still and kick a ball into a hoop, who ever could get enough goals would win.
But England was the Country to invent the Football that we play today, there has been hundreds of games where you kick a ball, but England invented modern Football, not standing still trying to kick a ball through a hoop.
That would probably be lacrosse which is football with nets and a smaller ball.
Are you forgetting that if it wasn’t for us “Stupid Foreigners” you wouldn’t even play the game? Didn’t think about that one did you?! At least the sports we invent are played all over the world (and can actually identify those countries on a map with ease)… Can’t really claim that victory can you?
Now, go and sit back in the corner and pretend you have the intelligence to understand what I have typed.
————————————————————————————-
Because NO ONE plays basketball or baseball….
Mate, if you can’t find England on the map, then either your teachers are a bunch of twats, or you’re just a bloody retard. Plus, if it weren’t for this “pointless nation”, your country wouldn’t even exist.
nicely said, all americans seem to forget the fact that britan found america and they are just drop-offs
please dont let that dumbsh*t lameblog give all of you the impression that all Americans are retarded. Believe me us intelligent Americans hate people like him too
SMARTEST man on earth is british, by the way its STEPHEN HAWKING!!
Who found America? If it can be considered found by Europeans, it was by an Italian with the support of Spain. Or perhaps by the Norse before that. If only my failing American education had been completely clear on that. Perhaps you meant founded. In that case, I bring into the argument all the other countries that colonized before England took over most of that land.
Either way it’s mine now, get off my lawn.
baaahahahahahaha. now that’s funny.
Jesus, this entire thread has become full of fail.
I agree. what a bunch of swill.
really the spanish settled in south america
The first known Europeans to reach North America were the Vikings.. It was a Dane form Iceland.. Im pretty sure they also settled, at least in Newfoundland.
FAIL
Americans won’t even find the state next to them because of their dumbness in geography as in the most part of human knowledge. BTW which good did US to the world else than starting senseless wars and spreading junk food and lame TV series across the planet?
American empire has already ended long ago, Yankees better be learning Chinese as fast as hell if they don’t like being devorated by Asia.

Nice grammar, idiot.

They helped Europe to get rid of Hitler
Most of americans can’t find USA on map, so your argument is invalid as your nation’s geographical knowledge
That is what your news feeds you. The only Americans that can’t find our country on a map are blind. Literally. We KNOW our country. We’re too narcissistic. You’re just another typical American-hating, rumor-believing nobody who has never met a REAL American (not ones on our fake movies) but yet, judges anyway.
Yea, without this “pointless nation”
The U.S wouldn’t exist, the English language wouldn’t exist, the World Wide Web wouldn’t exist.
Our “Pointless” Nations have founded more Countries and created more inventions that the U.S ever will.
If you can’t find Europe on a map then you are retarded, sorry to have to break it to you.
“founded more countries”….nice way of saying “ravaged the local people,plundered the land, and pushed Opium onto the population.”
The U.S. existed before your King George decided to use it as his little cash cow…America was filled with natives before we decided to take a note from England and destroy the locals. Thanks for teaching that to us. Oh, by the way, Ireland does not belong to your country. England makes me sick.
You just brought your entire nation down a peg or two. Congratulations.
yes you too not good speaky anglish you grammar lesson need and how read map maybe you take head out of arse learn talk words proper then other person listen beeter, yes no?
wow… hows this fial worthy and usa didnt win it was a draw dumbass’s
Draw better then lose, me teach u basics about life
^^^ fail
It’s not a win, it’s a fail. That very moment in time when the ball went into the goal was a fail on Green’s part. Nobody said it was a USA win.
It’s sad that you guys need such a lucky goal to win from England..
And yes, everybody knows that a draw is a win for USA in this case..
We didn’t win, it was a draw. Plus I honestly am surprised we TIED let alone win. I would have been glad with a 1-0 loss too. Considering EVERYONE was predicting an English rout. Most Americans don’t mind losing to England either considering it’s your most popular sport and our 6th most popular one. (American) Football, Baseball, Basketball, Hockey and (sadly) NASCAR, are all more popular here =/ Great game today though!
Agreed on the great game, but this pics like this piss me off… Just wanted to let the poster know he’s a douche
Well, mr poster, you are.
Finally! Somebody who can just say “good game” without any douchebaggery.
Ahh but your population is 6 times as high as england’s. So really the game should of been evenly matched.
You know… A sport being the 6th favorite doesn’t mean 1/6 of the population likes it.
I would love to see our true great athletes be trained from birth to be soccer players. LeBron James, Alex Rodriguez, Tiger Woods could have all been trained to be great soccer players, but the fact is they were not.
Just because our best athletes don’t play soccer doesn’t mean we couldn’t be good if we wanted to.
There is no money in being a great American soccer player, that’s why the dream is to play football or basketball: where the money lies.
congrats on maturely responding. I also agree with you. It was a good game. To all you fellow Americans who are just insulting other people: stop proving a stereotype, why do you want to paint such an awful picture for your country? If you were patriotic, you would say good game, and root for your country not attack others’.
And it’s sad that you guys can’t block such an easy shot..
The story behind it is more fail. The goal keeper almost had the ball but it slipped past him or under him or something and went right into the back of the net while he was still scrambling to get back to it. I say this is definitely ftw though, made a lot of scottish people who are sick of hearing about england winning the world cup again very happy.
So a draw is a win, now, is it? English language fail.
You’re an idiot… “USA Win” isn’t meant to refer to America winning the match…
No, of course; you have to be grateful for small mercies. For the USA team, scoring a goal is a big fvckin’ deal.
haha hey, when you’re as bad at football as we are, you take what you can get
Scoring for the US is not a big deal anymore. Did you not watch the Confederations Cup last summer? The US is up an coming in soccer. We are even better then Mexico now.
usa failz at football!!!
Wow, that didn’t take long to come out…people have time for everything.
usa got an equalizer with a grenade (GreenAid)
Nice one dude.
Note to idiots – the “win” isn’t a game win. The “win” is just the opposite of “fail.” The fail was Green’s Buckner-quality fail, compared to the US goalie’s impressive saves, quite opposite to the proficiency of the teams.
Green is lucky he plays for England and not some country where you get killed for that kind of mistake.
hmm i wonder what kind of country that might be….*cough* N. Korea *cough cough*
Seriously. If he were North Korean he’d probably be executed.
If he was from some South American country, a mob of hooligans would have killed him and burned his house down…
Gives new meaning to Soylent GREEN
No. No it doesn’t.
Although I will say that you should have used a still that made it more clear what was happening; this could easily be the ball whizzing by.
People who did`t enjoy this are butt-hurt or just a bunch of cry babies.
I dont watch football, I event dont watch TV, but I found this kind funny since I get the message.
People should relax.
People who didn’t enjoy this are English. There, fixed that for ya.
Or people who watched the game who realized that it wasn’t much of a fail. The ball hit his gloves on the side, then went into the goal. I’m an American and I wasn’t even rooting for USA.
teatime, were you rooting for England? How can you say you’re an American, but you don’t root for America? For those who don’t appreciate the country they live in, move!!
You’re stupid. What does it matter which team anyone roots for? How does that determine how much you appreciate your country? My dad lives in Dallas, but hates the cowboys… Should he move? You pick your favorites based on who you like better, not based on where you live. Don’t be so ignorant
Because, I’m 14, so you think I can move to another country at whim?
Reply win!
Move out whenever you can.
Why does not supporting a team mean that he doesn’t appreciate his country? I’d heard it was the land of the free – not North Korea (who are going to have a hilarious game against Brazil on Tuesday, btw).
It wasn’t hilarious
We played really badly, we could have scored a few more, if our players played only a tad bit better.
BUUUT, it was only the first game, it will get better
it is very stupid making this… like America didn’t even win it was a 1-1 draw
You get a point in the standings for a tie, so in that sense it was a good result for team USA. Especially since many thought England would kick their butts (and England DID play much better).
Football knowledge FAIL
I know you get a point for a draw- I’m Irish. But all goalkeepers hate the new ball and say its a complete disaster and I probably know more about football than you, I don’t know if I actually do but the fact is the ball is the fail not green. USA rank 14 in the world at football so to get a scrapy goal isn’t really a good goal for them they should of done much better
England sucks at international football
yeah, USA is good at football only if their oponents score a fail. Congrats…
I think the most American, will think it’s a Fail because it’s soccer ^^.
Who put BP in Goal?
lulz im english but that is funny
VERY INAPPROPRIATE TO POST THIS ON FAILBLOG!!!
100% agree
how so?
Well, the thing is, in the way it’s posted, only those who’ve already seen the fail understand it. To everyone else, this fail is just an everyday goal, nothing special about that.
Yeah, this makes no sense to me. I don’t watch football, american or otherwise. Perhaps if it had been presented in a way that made the actual “fail” involved a little more obvious. As it is, it’s a pretty serious in-joke between those people who actually watched the goal in question. Was there not a video of this taking place?
So it has a smaller intended audience than a car in a pool. That doesn’t make it ‘inappropriate’.
Why is it inappropriate? This is a humourous site and yes it was humiliating to the English side, whom I support, I find the humour in making the Fail look like a Goal for the other side.
I looked like FC Porto keeper in the last portuguese league cup final against SL Benfica
wohooooooo as we say in portugal “what a goose!”
*It
It was a tie in the end, so what? Are americans going to make today a holiday just because the english goalie failed to stop the ball? Is it going to become a day where all americans pull out tons of alcohol just because of a tiny victory? Well, that’s pointless. Just like 5 de mayo…
you do realize that cinco de mayo isn’t an american holiday, right?
Cincinnati de mayo actually is an American holiday. Nobody in Mexico celebrates it, and because we attribute it to Mexico, that makes it obviously an American made holiday. (probably because a big company wanted more money)
……what…..?
I have never been more confused in my entire life.
You sir, are retarded.
Cinco de Mayo isn’t pointless….and they say us Americans are ignorant…
How did I not see this coming to FailBlog?
Fail on my part.
We have international trash talking going on.
Let’s not start any wars here, gentleman.
North American nationalism shines through on failblog.org
Would somebody from England characterize the goal differently? Would they be less concerned about it?
Your post makes little sense.
Come on… stupid muslims it’s not time to pray yet!
Come on, may I just point out your fail at recognising a play of words?
Shake a leg.
Duh-dumm.
I believe the game was a draw. Failblog Fail
Agreed!
The win is the goal…
Why does everyone think every fail has to come with a win?
lol…americans score one goal and they are proud..okay
they never watch football ( and yes this is football …ur football is handegg)
and they think they are good at it..i mean come on…ur intelligence is not exactly though the roof (btw…i aint brittish)
I’m American and I watch as much football (soccer) as I can, not that they play it much on tv. But we suck at it, so it is a slightly big deal that we tied with one of the big names in international football. But not failblog worthy
lol hand egg! this the first time I heard that! and at the risk of starting another comment flame storm, at least we did better than Greece! but yeah, that maybe as far as we’ll go but I’m cool with it. Just the chance to see them in the tournament is more than enough!
Never? Really. Never. Hmm. Okay, I need to tell my (American) friends we can’t ever watch football again.
And MLS needs to disband immediately since no one EVER comes to their games or watches on tv
I’d watch it more if they’d play it on tv.
come on, i mean seriously u no what they mean, America dont care about football like the crazy english people who are totaly obsessed. (im english) The amount of merchandise just football related bought here yesterday was fricken insane – like billions. not saying u dont watch football, its just that u have other things that u care more about.
USA won what ??
THE WAR ON TERROR!!!!!
Oscar’s, all the time. that’s all
They won someone named Oscar?
For those who don’t understand- Today at the Soccer (football in europe) worldcup, the USA played England. Final score 1-1. The goalie had a perfect shot at stopping our shot and practically pushed it in for us. A rookie could have stopped that shot.
Agreed… Little League keepers would be embarrassed at missing that
It’s Football in the rest of the world not just europe, only America calles it soccer
and south africans
and Aussies, hence the socceroos.
And Canada.
And the word was first used in England.
Plus there are countries in the rest of the world that have a word for it in their own language completely different from football or soccer. :3
I am an American who rooted and will root for England. I nearly pissed myself when I saw Green letting that trickler by. He clearly swore to himself when he was diving for the ball if you watch the replay. He knew his mistake and if he had been to the center of the ball more England would have won.
Woah you nearly pissed yourself over soccer?
O_o
Yeah, it’s actually the worlds most popular game. You see we Americans have to be different than everyone, so we don’t play soccer or use a sensible measurement system.
And that’s how you justify a grown man almost voiding his bowels over a game?
You don’t piss the contents of your bowels. Well, you might.
If so, I’d suggest that they see a doctor.
First, it’s a figure of speech. I wasn’t nearly about to piss myself. I was using that as a metaphor for getting angry.
Second, I’m 15.
Green is my least favourite colour today.
Slovenian FTW!
Yer? well 9/11
Epic touché.
I HATE YOU GREEN! you made me shout a very very rude word out in front of my girlfriend’s family all how are christians and hate swearing
thanks to you i will not be getting any for a very long time
Maybe you need a new gf if she comes from a family of uptight prigs…
Just to point something out, if you someone from NYC and someone from the burbs of Utah are the same (as they’re both American), you failed. We tied, and that makes some of us happy because we thought we had NO chance. A 1-1 tie sounds pretty good after that. Besides, most people aren’t really excited about it, most are disappointed since we didn’t win, despite not sucking too bad. Ease up on the trashing American because they are all ignorant comments. It’s so irking to be lumped in with all those ignorant people your talking about
Ah, England football team…how many years has it been…how many ways do you find to break our hearts…
This isn’t funny… The Americans didn’t even win, and it was just a little slip. If that hadn’t had happened, you guys wouldn’t have had a chance of tieing. Cuz Americans just suck at soccer.
That’s cause we don’t care….. and we still managed to get one past……hmm.
We don’t care? Tell that to Tim Howard, the best Keeper in the game, an American. You don’t care. Don’t speak for all of us.
Emphasis on “in the game.” I want to see Howard try to get some of the shots off of Argentina (especially Messi’s) that the Nigerian goalie got. THEN, I’ll acknowledge that Howard is a good goalie.
Until then, shut up.
In the game means in football, not in the match. Messi had a couple good shots, but nothing that made the Nigerian keeper anything spectacular.
YEAH, ARGENTINA RULZ!
AND MESSI ROCKZ
messi is the MESSIAH for argentina
Nah, the northern neighbours from Argentina ( Not the pint-sized Uruguay, they are good, but not that awesome) are the ones with the awesomeness in South America
Tim Howard’s the best goalkeeper in America. He’s not the best in football by a long way
right now, the best goalkeeper in the world is iker casillas, or maybe julio cesar
Buffon is still my favorite. He’s old but he’s good.
The world series…. only exists in america… jus’ goes to show the ignorance and arrogance of an excuse of a nation…
Hey!!! It’s in Canada too. And considering that the teams ship players in from all over the world, it’s a little fitting.
Nope…LOL. A real ‘world series’ would obviously include TEAMS from all over the world.
It’s called that because it started out with ‘the Chicago World’ newspaper as sponsors.
I read that was an urban myth…and if you listen when they announce the winning team they always refer to them as ‘the world champions’ …that’s pretty unequivocal….just saying.
ermm, the “World Cup” is a World Tournament, every single Country with a Football team has a chance to win. (Although it’s a very small chance obviously)
then get baseball team together and come play! like jrock said bball players in the states come from all over the world. why can’t we all just get along!
If you don’t care why enter a team in the WORLD CUP?
After this goalie fail, apparently the Brits such just a tad more, so get over yourself.
The only way USA would win, by fluke.
Ahh, I loved that, that was hilarious!!!
I say this is a fail simply because I don’t give a crap about futball, soccer, whatever it’s called. David Beckham’s pretty hot, but other then that unless you’re holding a pigskin, we (Americans) really don’t care.
after that happened i got realy nervous every time green got near the ball, i was like “god please dont drop it, dont accidently throw it into the goal” its coz we’ve made football to commercial, all they care about is themselves not the team
You’re an idiot. He was trying to stop the ball and he messed up… how on earth does that have anything to do with making football commercial?
tyranid666 meant that he was irrationally nervous about one player who screwed up. he wasn’t thinking about the team as whole because commercials now a days make it seem like the only reason a team is good is because of one, solitary player.
I’m surprised, reading the comments I see that people from the US saw the game. I don’t understand why football is not a commercial success in the US, maybe with this world cup the sport will gain more popularity. Anyway, it was a good game.
I love how everybody is saying that USA sucks even though we made it to the finals of the confederates cup and only just lost to brazil.
The part that sucks is that apparently, the people of your country don’t care about the biggest event of the year, being USA, that’s a FAIL.
Don’t wrap us all in together. Football is the only sport I watch
eh, at least he matched his unluckiness with a bit of luck later on, if that shot from Altidore had bounced differently the USA squad could have clinched it…so in other words at least he dodged being an absolute failure
But by that reasoning you could say that both goalkeeper were lucky that every shot didn’t go in. Stupid comment
i’ll counter your troll with another, “goalkeeper” should be plural as goalkeepers. next time use proper grammar so you don’t sound like an ignorant tosser
Given by your lack of capitalization and punctuation, I’d say that was a counterargument FAIL.
If you think THIS is a fail, then you should see the English at penalty shoot-outs…
Stuart Pearce, Chris Waddle, Gareth Southgate, Paul Ince, David Batty, Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard, Jamie Carragher…
Against Portugal in the last 6 years they lost two times in two times that our matches went to penaltys ahah
Ask any Italian that is over 30 yrs old about Baggio
i saw this. i was suprised though
BTW America is not a country, its a rejected colony of britain, … america is as old as my parents house!
I think you missed the entire point of the Revolutionary War…
Or 1812 when we did it again! Boo ya!
History FAIL. War of 1812 was at best a draw. English took DC, burned the White House, and controlled the Eastern seaboard. US won exactly one battle… which took place after the war ended.
Um… did they re-establish a colony? No, they didn’t. Understanding objectives fail.
With the level of ignorance in that statement I do believe that you’ve never left your parents house. How is their basement these days?
He could be living in a really old house, there are homes that old out there.
Seriously, the US didn’t deserve to tie today. They were playing like crap.
Yeah sure, you guys went almost defeated in the Confederates Cup and only lost to Brazil. Well, I don’t care because I’m from Brazil!
haha I’m an American, and I feel like I can honestly say that America played the best it can. It was the English team that totally botched the match.
I agree that the English team played like crap too XD
But their goal was more “legit” than yours, so I kinda lean toward England
lol oh, you’ll get no argument from me. I’d rather see England in the finals than America… would make for a better match…
You’re arguing about a friggin’ game which is determined by who played crappier. No mention of a great offense, but endless defense in watching a ball go back and forth and back and forth for hours with nothing happening. Watching men run around is about as exciting as NASCAR and watching cars drive around.
Dude, we get that you don’t like soccer. Now shut up.
If you don’t like hearing people criticize your sport you could always just not go on the internet. Lady Gaga and Justin Beiber get 200 million YouTube views. Just because soccer is huge doesn’t mean it’s good, or interesting. It’s international, so countries exhibit their own form of xenophobia vicariously.
my point= missed.
Your point I ignored. Ha ha.
Because the English didn’t give it everything they have, why would they run around making risky shots, potentially injuring themselves just to win the first match?
We don’t have any rivalries with the U.S either, so we are happy with a tie.
but no one knows what would have happend if he saved it, what if it bounced off him and someone got the rebound and put it in
If that had happened then it would be considered a legit win, not this half ass fumble give away to the other side.
Apparently this fail happened on the 40th minute, so surely in reality the fail is that none of them managed to score again in the next 50 minutes!!
That’s a very good point…they can blame the goalie all they want but they had plenty of time to get another goal.
get used: if you were a GK and suffer a goal like that, you surely will assume that it was a big fail.
Sooooo how isn’t it a fail that England didn’t manage to score again, either?
This title is a fail considering the game ended in a tie; not a USA win.
Considering that this goal was a give away to the US team… it is almost a win. Green could ask for US citizenship and get it.
Here, let me lay it out for you.
Making a goal = WIN
Failing to prevent that goal = FAIL
One can succeed at making a goal, but still fail at winning the game, or in other words: you can win and still fail, or fail and still win.
Sorry if I just blew your mind.
This was soooo depressing D:
bok bok bok – mcchicken!!!
today is the American´s Green-Day, LOL
OP FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIL!
Any fail involving soccer is automatically double fail turd world ghetto “game” o fail
You don’t have to like it but you can at least respect it’s popularity.
Go away.
it’s called football, you twat !
Football is more awesome than you’ll ever be so shut up now.
Fight In Comments FAIL!!!
Wasting Time to Comment FAIL
any one got a video of this fail?
The real fail is that people go out of their way to watch grown men play with their balls. What a waste of time. They could be commenting on failblog instead.
your name is assman… I feel like anything you say is automatically negated….
u must be a woman
I’ve just seen the video, and I still have to say: it’s no more a fail than every other goal. This stuff happens 9/10 times with the Dutch team (I’m Dutch). And still our Dutch team is apparantly a “good team”.
What? This does not happen 9/10 times. This never happens.
Why did you just state that this does not happen 9/10 times? then contradict yourself by then saying it never happens? Surely if it does not happen 9/10 times then it must happen 1/10 times, therefore making it … well … happen? Also your 9/10 times is rather inaccurate. Allow me to explain, if it happens 1 out of every 10 times then it would happen in almost every game that gets played, sometimes 2 or 3 times in a game, because usually in a game of football (or soccer) there tends to be more than 10 shots in a match. Personally I would say that incidents like this would happen only a few times in a goalkeepers career.
I have nothing else to say about your ludicrous comment.
Good day Mr. C. Jarvis
what? Did you even read this before you posted. I was referring to the comment before.
“I’ve just seen the video, and I still have to say: it’s no more a fail than every other goal. This stuff happens 9/10 times with the Dutch team (I’m Dutch). And still our Dutch team is apparantly a “good team”.”
I was pointing out that, that’s ridiculous, it does not happen nearly that often. I agree with you, Ally. Try reading the conversation next time
I’ve been watching now for quite some time, and can say with some confidence that comments like yours happen 9/10 times. Alöso, Mr. C. Jarvis’ comments were quite astute, I thought. However, my name is Assman, so please negate anything I say.
negated!
ummm…Your logic is rather strange to me. Okay, you say it doesn’t happen 9/10 times…Agreed. But, just because it doesn’t happen 9/10 times doesn’t mean it has to happen 1/10 times. Nice try trying to sound smart…ohhh wow you can subtract 9 from 10. good for you.
Yeah, I indeed worded my comment wrongly. I should’ve said “9/10 succesful goals against the Dutch team”, instead of just “9/10 times”.
technically its england fail usa draw
why you guys have to show such a stupid heart breaking patriotism when talking ’bout sports? i’m brazilian but really don’t care if my nation wins or lose the cup. the only thing i’m intersting is in matchs. good matchs ou failing match or goals like the Green’s fail. YES it was a damn funny fail. But british people: so what it was? it’s not a matter of nation’s hurt feeling. and americans: please don’t think you’re the biggest nation in the world just because you got a tie. nor because you are rich or brainless. life’s much complex.
Well there, we have something in common. I don’t care if Brazil wins or loses the cup either.
Also, it’s a known fact that America is the biggest nation. In fact, they have weight-loss centers right next to the buffet line.
you’re biggest in what? politics? diplomacy? social care or espiritual uprising? I really don’t think you are. you’re rich, and that’s all.
America has the best fast-food selections, so there!
america has the biggest amount of dying people in hospital doors. congrats!
That’s the spirit! Let’s try some more:
America will soon be able to fuel its cars using nothing but seawater from the gulf of mexico.
america has the biggest number of fans of miley cyrus in the world (this supposed to be a congrats or a ‘shame on you’?)
I don’t know. Let’s just run with it and see where it goes.
Wait, i’m liking this. america is the only nation the think football is a sport you play with hands.
the only nation that thinks****
You realize he is a troll, trying to get you to do this, right?
I’d say that brazilian’s the troll. Win for Assman.
I’d say that they’re both trolls and that we’ve stumbled upon a troll war, both sides trying to out troll the other. This is quality entertainment right here.
I can’t understand why people get so darned defensive about a silly game.
You obviously didn’t watch the game. He didn’t get very defensive at all.
Reply win
I can’t understand why Green lost this ball.
Is it just me….or did this probably happen due to him wearing Mickey Mouse gloves instead of something more sensible?
green fail because him didn’t mature yet. (this joke aways works in portuguese, hope it works in english, haha)
Não, não funciona.
droga.
not so funny when u got money on England
yes it is.
The pic and the comments after it are all a “FAIL”….soccer(football) is a LAME ass sport.
I assume your own comment is included…
not, it isn’t. thinking your tastes is the only one that values. that is lame.
wow,so many comments
I know. And your comment was such a shining contribution.
i didnt want to contribute anything,i just wanted to share my conclusion after reading some comments and then scrolling till the bottom of the page.
Well thanks for that. Your followup comment made all the difference.
america is the only country that interfere and don’t contribute with anything (i’m learning, right?)
Well we owe this whole message thread to them, so that’s something I guess.
Nice chatting with ya, Braulio.
my name isn’t Braulio
No, we owe this message thread to Green, the English goal keeper.
why the hate?
No hate. Just trolling.
Successfully!
no reason to be so xenophobe
Isn’t that the true nature of the world cup?
i watched the whole match, i loved it
242nd!!!!!
@Johntheone Good call on the World Series, how arrogant can a nation get? We play baseball in England, in infant school (ages 5-7) but we call it silly-boy rounders.
Posting a pic of this, rather than a video clip = FAIL
It is a fail.
An Ozzy criticizing another countries politics? That’s the pot calling the kettle black for sure.
Yeah, how dare they get pissed when muslim men started raping women in bikinis for exposing flesh… I mean, how un-culturally diverse they are………. wait…
Im an American who wants to see America do good in the World Cup but when America gets knocked out Im going to cheer for England like the majority of Americans will be. Their like America’s Grandparents. You have to love them.
Exactly. You can’t help but love them even though you know their culture is outdated and bigoted, their food is horrible, and their attempts to be cool are just so very sad.
In the end, white people support white people, black people support black people, browns and yellows, reds and mulattoes, we think we’re above tribalism, but we’re not.
Go people!
Both the English and American teams have white and black people in them. Failtard.
Wow. I guess go people wasn’t broad enough. How about, “We’re all equal in God’s eyes.” That fluffy enough for you? I care not a wit for skin tone, but most people can’t help it. Most countries exhort soccer as a vicarious xenophobia. Madness ensues.
Not really, since most people around the world love Brazil, and they’re mixed.
I like tea….
Fail blog failed (the USA tied).
Now take a snip of this headline and show it on your site.
LOL I regret missing the game today. As an American, I’m not proud of our soccer team (why oh why do they always suck so bad?), but I’m glad that they have a chance now to get past the first stage! lol
They actually don’t suck.
EPIC EPIC EPIC
Why is this up on here and on upnextinsports? We get it the Green failed. There is no need to keep going on about it. Besides it isn’t like it is going to end up making a bit of a difference. The World Cup will go on and the USA will not make it very far.
I’d be surprised if they did. Our real athletes are busy in other sports – baseball, football, hockey. Nobody plays soccer in the US except girls (I’m actually serious, not being a dink.)
I think there might be some male soccer players in the US, they could be playing in the world cup. Im not sure
In fact I think the entire MLS is male…
Well there’s no reason to keep going on about 1966, but that doesn’t seem to stop the English supporters, does it?
Did people forget that this is the fail blog? Regardless of the outcome, that’s the definition of fail, thus it’s correctly being placed on this blog.
Trust Americans to take something they had very little to do with and claim victory.
Wow dude, I sorta feel bad for this dude.
But seriously, that was such a stupid mistake. To make it at the world cup is seriously saddening.
Wherever Green is, good luck sleeping tonight! And tomorrow night! And most of the nights for the rest of your life!~
its funny how americans claim a draw as a victory. just shows how much you underestimate yourselves.
I believe the term you are looking for would be overestimate. To underestimate would mean that we think we are worse than we are.
Ha ha ha …this whole thread is fail.
It is.
lmao, shutup loldong. Your just mad because your silly goal keeper fail’d so hard.
The American team should adopt the Tesco (a British supermarket like Kroger) slogan “Every little helps.”
England = butthurt
We are.
offensive, but, my god did I laugh when I clicked on XD
I jus feel sorry for Green, this may very well trash his football career :/ I’m alright with the tie, but scoring this way, I just wish it could’ve been another way
Imagine how Baggio felt after 1994
( google him if you don’t know)
the real fail is that the US celebrates a goal that was given to them, rather then earned lol sad!
Any team would have celebrated being awarded a goal.
this wasn’t even funny
The handegg players managed to score a goal and now they’re happy…. this is like a fat kid who pulls of his first… and only… pull-up… the goalie is a fail tough…
Its too bad, i mean england seems to constantly be a disapointment. This year had all the hype about it being the year for England and tieing 1-1 to usa i feel is devistating! Green will remeber this day for the rest of his life, and the fact that it is considered a fail is really saddening, his career may never recover! David James who is not much better might be the one filling in.
That’s stupid!!! It’s a given goal… why so proud of it? That goal was not funny, even though i rooted for both team… :/
comment fail – all of you.
FAIL.
I do feel sorry for him though. It was one hell of a balls up.
BURN THE GREEN, SAVE THE TEAM!
Oh I get it, the fail was letting in a goal from the USA…
Photographer fail – was that really the best picture you could find of the goal? Why not a shot of Green stretching for the ball as it slowly rolls over the goal line?
because it’s “after-fail”. The reaction of failing himself.
Hey, hey stopped! It’s just happens sometime. Well to English goalkeepers every time. Anyway the match was good I like it.
HAHAH i do have to say greens poor save was an epic fail , but in my oponion, U.S.A letting england score in the first 4 minites? that was the biggest fail of all
I read somewhere that England wants to win the World Cup. My initial reaction was: “since when do they have a goal keeper good enough to become world champions?”
Well they had… in the past…
that is unbelievable ,
You boys and girls should never forget who manage the English Team.
This man – F.Capelo can bring every team on top.
So just watch the game and we will talk later about.
But he made an awesome save later in the game
WORST FAIL EVER. I HATE THIS. THIS IS NOT FUNNY. YOU BIASED AMERICANS. YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT FOOTBALL IS.
James you’re a fail! You know, not every American is as stupid as you think! SOME of them are actually GOOD at soccer, and they KNOW that it’s called FOOTBALL in other countries, and SOME of them don’t even LIKE AMERICAN FOOTBALL because of the NAME!!!!! So THINK before you post a STEREOTYPED comment!!!!!
It’s an English dude suffering from butthurt.
I agree with you im english and i think England were the better team but the USA are not ametures any more this is thier 6th world cup and we should not take them lightly they played a good game.
But we should have plyed Crouch earlier and we could of won
England did play better than us, but honestly, both teams could have done WAY better.
Thank you! I’ve never liked (American) football and regret how soccer isn’t such a big deal here.
When I saw this on TV I literally couldn’t believe what just happened.
I wondered if a pic of this epic fail will be up on this page… and here it is.
this is not a fail. its awful. stop reminding us about it. and it is 10:19 when i wrote this because I will NOT go by American time
it’s ok james, don’t worry about it, it’s just a boring game mediatized so much that you think it is important
go drink a glass of water in the mountains
i blocked this using my Abblock for google chrome
Why do americans say soccer and not football like the rest of the world?
Because they already have a game they call football, strangely they play it with an egg and their hands
handegg? rrsrsrsrsr
First of all, the word soccer originated in England and use to be a nickname or shorthand for association football, it’s basically the same as saying footy. They called it soccer to differentiate between rugby, which was rugby football at the time. Now that it’s just rugby, it’s called football again, but not all countries call it football. There are other countries other than America who have other games called football (ex. Canadian football, Australian rules football). Canada, Australia, and SOUTH AMERICA (heard of Soccer City?), call it soccer. Australia and South America have changed their official organisations to football, but a lot of the populations still refer to it as soccer. There are also countries that have a word for the sport in their own language that is completely different from soccer or football. :3
*South Africa
This comment makes me so glad that I don’t live in America.
It makes me sad that I do T_T
As soon as I can I am moving outta here.
This was indeed a monumental fail. But funny, no. What is funny is why Americans call their game ‘Football’ when no-one uses their feet to kick the ball?
Soccers
Yankees don’t even know the name of sport…
Why not use a gif? Like this one: http://i.imgur.com/1w7lL.gif
That’s just mean.
always nice to see England failing
soccer is not an interesting game > cancel it
It’s more like “goalie fail, USA DRAW.” They didn’t win. It only tied it up.
for relative newcomers like usa drawing vs england is a win
‘USA win’ is obviously not referring to the outcome of the game, but the specific context of the picture.
At least this is one English spill the Americans can be happy with…
I get it, and I loled.
In south africa the host nation they call it soccer too. And i think that the English were expecting to win very easy, and you cant just blame the goalie. If the English team (im english) played better than they would have won. Dont blame the goalie that the english team could only score one goal. English care more about football than americans, its like most peoples life here, and Americans arnt known for there soccer abilities and thats why England was expected to win
@Em:
It is strange that English supporters just can’t accept reality. Contrary to what most English supporters seem to believe, England isn’t an odds-on favourite for winning the world cup. They have a good team and some very good players, but hey, there are at least eight other good teams in the competition. The second thing is that underestimating the US team doesn’t appear very clever either. They aren’t a great team but they aren’t that bad either. In 2002 they reached quarter finals and it took quite a lot of bad luck to lose against later finalist Germany. In addition the US team takes part in the world cup the sixth time in a row. Something that cannot be said about the English team…
England better take Algeria and Slovenia more seriously, they aren’t that bad either.
not winning the world cup, i meant the game. Its just that English having been playing football a lot longer, and its not as popular in America. but i come from south africa originally, so totally inbiased opinion, coz i dont think SA will win.
+i was rooting for America, only so i could go and shove it in my friends faces.
That sounds like the South African thing to do.
You’re wrong – most English people assume we’re going to LOSE. Don’t judge us by the tabloid media. We think we have a chance, but experience tells us it’s a slim one.
LOL. Green did fail which made England Draw. But still the only way USA can even draw is by a massive fail. Shot Was poor but unfortunately, the Goal Keeping was worse. USA still got a long way to go before you can start criticising people about Football.
its is a huge fail, coz the guy caught the ball and let it go. And shut up, if u can complain about people dissin ur country then u shouldnt stoop to that level.
exactly, we can say mean things to.
+ if u saying we backwards, then u must take a walk outside, oh wait u cant coz u so fat that u laying behind ur computer wasting away.
Well shoot, there goes my stereotype of Europeans being intelligent.
USA win? in no sense of the word did they win… the drew the game for starters, and the only way they drew the game was due to a giant mistake from the england goalie. if this is what constitutes a win in America, then you have some serious confidence issues…. and the whole world knows that to not be the case.
Goalie FAIL usa DRAW.
People, it’s called Football. England invented it, they called it Football, you use your FOOT. It’s not called Soccer, Americans call it Soccer because they call another sport Football. I’m not saying England or USA is right but that is WHY we call it Football and Americans call it Soccer, there is no need to argue over it. Also, if Fabio Capella wasn’t a complete twat and had James in goal instead, this never would of happened. Green has so little experience playing Internationally that something like this was bound to happen. Having a good goalkeeper is 50% of the team.
Actually we invented the word ‘soccer’ as well. It’s a contraction of association football (ASOC is how posh kids in public (read ‘private’) schools (specifically the Oxford colleges) distinguish it from rugby – which they call rugby football.) The ‘er’ suffix is a posh type of slang. The term soccer football is still prevalent among the upper classes.
Scoring 1-1 is a win, in the same way the World Series is a world tournament.
Can someone please upload a picture of Heskey ramming into the US goalkeeper. Just even things out a bit.
BTW, other than the few in the stadium, are there any US football fans anywhere in the world?
Yes, it is called football for reasons stated above. American football is just rugby for idiots where they need full kevlar body armour and they stop every twenty seconds after running at each other.
Argh! Similar picture is also on Pundit Kitchen and then I come over to this.
STUPID GOALIE
Oh rub it in, will you!
The result was deserved for both teams.
Btw, the word Soccer comes from the UK, it’s an abbreviation of “Association Football”. Check it up, the Yanks didn’t invent that word.
That said, it’s still Football.
Damn – I just posted a tl;dr post above detailing that exact point.
you wouldnt be able to have that word derived if YANKS didnt help you , it would be in FRENCH ! tosser
Fail. Srsly.
Vous venez de perdre la manière la plus épique possible
USA FAIL! The only team that plays “SOCCER” at a FOOTBALL Championship
nope, there are quite a lot of English speaking countries that call football “soccer”. E.g. South Africa, Australia and New Zealand.
4 in 32… so… football it is :p
England goalkeepers. A history of fail :/ And I’m English btw. I dont rly care about this it was pretty funny :L
The only reason this was a fail was because england were the favourites by a large majority to win, but the goalie just missed an easy as hell shot, making it a fail.
Not rocket science, but i guess football (soccah) isn’t that big in the USA.
Not funny
USA win? No, it was a draw
The sooner Susan Boyle gets in the England goal the better..
Thats the fail i wanna see
Looks like you have already seen a fail.
Susan Boyle is Scottish, Scottish people can’t play for the England team. You can only play for the Country you come from : )
Nah ah!! Germany last night had 2 poles and a Brazilian =)
Also england were talking about Almunia to be the new keeper, and he’s Spanish…(and rubbish)
Is it true England has won a world cup ???
@Englishsalt:
only by two irregular goals which is why England have to pay for it since then…
Yes England have won the World Cup before.
and America have won ??
…the war against the Germans… the one that allowed you to continue speaking English… both times.
Actually it was Russia that did the bulk of the fighting in the second world war.
I don’t disagree that there was a lot of blood in the snow on the Eastern front, but I don’t think that the Russians would have stopped the Nazis from crossing the channel and claiming the UK as their own. It was the blood in the water at Normandy that started the push back from the West, hence saved the Brits.
How can you say America “saved” the British they sent in waves of troops after troops and got most of them killed and whilst the germans were ocupied with you so called suicide tactics the russians were fighting where it counted.
Anyway this is about football and it was a silly mistake on Greens part but you count say that USA was the better time the truth is England just failed to finish.
@sentinel13:
The Russians may not have been able to stop Germany without the especially economical support they got from the US. But Germany would have lost the war even without the invasion in Normandy. The major part of the German troops fought on the eastern front, the western front was partly deserted and there was much less resistance. Still, the Russians arrived first in Germany and conquered Berlin.
The US, on the other hand, did all of the fighting in Asia.

Americans will never like WORLD CUP , SOCCER – keep it
How many times have you seen riots, stampedes at a FOOTBALL GAME
USA is more civilized THEN these yahoos – look at the mass majority that like soccer and what they like – sort of like OBAMABOT FOLLOWERS
take your SOCIALISM AND YOUR SOCCER AND YOUR STAND STAMPEDES and shove them up your … how do you write it ? ARSE…
Riots are rare at football, most riots happened in the 80s.
Go to school, learn what socialism is then come back here, maybe if you stop watching Fox News, that might help.
People like you are part of the reason why most of the World now dislike Americans.
Just go to school period. Before your fail starts rubbing off on your family.
You are an example of what is the worst in USA, I hope that most North Americans are not self-centered like you.
I am a Brazilian, and of course I know there are people like that in all countries, including Brazil.
“USA WIN” ?!?! It’s called a draw R-tards!
judging by all the comments and the lack of the picture of the england goal, im guessing the one we scored in the first 5 minutes didn’t count then?
Only because if you hadn’t scored that goal, the USA would have, in fact, /beaten/ the England team.
Anyone remember what happened in the 1994 World Cup match between the USA and Colombia? Look up “Andres Escobar.”
well, actually the whole match was a fail not only this goal
How exactly was a whole match a fail?
There weren’t any huge mistakes and both teams played well.
don’t really see how this is a win for usa. they weren’t dangerous if not for this. long run the US should be worried rly.
Look, England are 10 times better than the US (according to any betting man) and they didn’t beat the USA.. A country too stupid to learn the games proper name, it’s a massive fail on both parts lol.
We’re not ten times better than the US. And, as it’s already been mentioned five times in this thread, we invented the term ‘soccer’.
maybe instead of putting only a picture up, they should have put the video. would have made much more sense.
Did not, in fact they just made it worse. I hope your comment was ironic.
God save the Green!
Good Joke!
USA draw, actually
This site has lost all taste and decency.
the fact is so many Americans watch the world cup, but only a handful actually root for the American team
ENGLAND WILL GET REVENGE FOR THAT GOAL. See the video, it’s better…
You won’t get past the 1st round, enjoy your draw but we’re still going through top of the group. Back to the Colonies with you to play baseball (which we invented)!
Funny how the only way the Yanks can reside in victory (that isn’t even a victory) is because of essentially an own goal on England’s part. The Yanks win at nothing, you couldn’t even score for yourself
Now Tommy–we’ll have none of that! We all know that those “Yanks” beat England in the war of 1812, while England was losing the war of 1812 fighting against the Russians in Crimea. The “Yanks” also won WWI and WWII as well as 37 medals in the 2010 Winter Olympics. Britain, you ask? Oh, well they got 1 medal and a certificate for trying. Speaking of “scoring for yourself”–what happened to that cute girl you used to bring home from your ballet class?
“The “Yanks” also won WWI and WWII “, and so did england.
But only because the USA put their hand in the mix.
Hardly a win. Last time I checked, it was just a draw…
harhar
I agree, us Americans are retarded for saying soccer. It should be football. But the fact of the matter is it was a fail for England, but not a win for the USA. Realistically speaking though, both teams will advance out of the group so why do we care so much about this game being a draw?
Yeah can we get a video of this up instead? People who didn’t see the game arent going to understand exactly why its so big of a fail.
sorry to american’s as you may not understand from your sports, but this isn’t Goalie Fail, USA Win. This is Goalie Fail, USA Draw.
Leave him alone….
It was just an accident with bad gloves. >_<
And USA did very poor, only making such a worthless goal.

______________________________
Yeah we did so poor that after your 4' goal, England didn't sniff the net. The U.S. defense was superb.
its not like Americans were great , but the English didn’t gave it there best is more like it.
this one’s a better fail:
http://cheezburger.com/T-man007/lolz/View/3621370880
Failblog fail at trolling -.-
USA didnt win!!! It was a tie. A TIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
exactly!
This is blates not a win. England deserved to win as the USA goal was rubbish!!!! I love America but you guys suck at FOOTBALL. This goals proves nothing on your skill or ability to be ‘the best at everything’.
none of this will change the fact that you still didn’t win…… England came into the game expecting to win… USA came into the game expecting to lose. We exceeded expectations, as you did not.
This isn’t a fail….ummm….USa didn’t win? It was a tie?……I mean…hmmmmm. Did someone already write this? How do I delete this post…..
Brilliant haha
The most important is that neither Obama or Cameron win the beer they bet about the game.
I’m English. I don’t find this funny…
would it help if we gave the ashes back?
I think it would have been funnier if they’d capped him desperately reaching for the ball as it rolled IN TO the net.
USA FAIL!! who would even want to tie like this :/
Im guessing by reading the comments none of you watched the usa vs england game. its good that we tied we got a point in the group tables and played a game that many people thought would be a blow out. its a win for the USA and green sucks ass
yeah…… then you should be ashamed then, if your oh so brilliant goalie fails THAT BAD. Just go home. You have won how many World Cups? So called founders of soccer. If you are soooo good, how come you have only won once?
How come the so called ‘greatest country in the world’ has never won? And has never one a competition that didn’t allow only US teams to enter?
hey man, I never said we were any good. Im just saying you guys aren’t nearly as good as you think you are
A lot of you guys are missing the point
It isn’t the team of England that is the fail, or the fact that it was a draw.
This pic represents just one moment of the game, the one where Green let the ball roll into the goal because he didn’t control it with his hands corectly.
A video would have been more expressive ( Here you go for those who havn’t watched the game http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BhQDpnrfqPs )
Anyway, this pic made me laugh because it reminded me of that moment, that huge FAIL !
And if you didn’t watch the game you just can’t understand it.
Poor Rob Green. There are probably more US citizens playing football than English citizens just because of the larger population (6 the size I believe) so the argument that the reason the US were useless yesterday is because the country isn’t that into the sport doesn’t really wash. Unfortunately England were also useless when it came to finishing and holding the ball and not tapping it into the net yourself.
Oh poor poor Rob Green, if we don’t win the group he will never live this down…drawing against the USA is just not acceptable here.
The USA came into this game expecting to win, as did England – even the USA fans expected them(USA) to win.
This is a Rob Green fail, but not really a USA win. If you look at it the other way around when Gerrard put the goal PROPERLY behind Howard, can I get a photo of that and put ‘USA Fail, England Win’? Not really, as the game was a DRAW (not a tie, BTW).
It’s just a Goalie Fail. We’ll all get beaten by Algeria/Slovenia anyway
Try: Goalie Fail, USA still only draw.
thierry henry calling for an accidental handball was the fail of the century. what happened to green can happen to anyone, even the best.
I agree. But you have to admit – it happens a lot to England.
Henry didn’t even score with his hand, when Maradona did it in a World Cup game.
So thinking like you do, Maradona would be a bigger fail than Henry. Plus it’s not a fail at all since it allowed France to go to South Africa (Sorry for the Irish people here)
who cares, people all over the world think that americans are stupid anyway
People all over the world think that they’re cleverer than everyone else is more accurate.
The term “Americans” should be capitalized, as should the first word of your sentence, and a nice period to finish it off.
Get off Americans being stupid. I will admit most are ignorant about the rest of the world, but when you go around spouting off ignorant comments like this you should be allowed to talk. Also, considering your comment was made at 12:05 my time I can safely assume that you are at least 8 hours old. Time to grow up though.
He says “God have mercy on me, I tried my best!”
Robert Green should become the new CEO of BP. He is expert at spillages and is extremely eager to help the Americans get out of a bad situation.
honestly, for people who don’t like soccer, this is totally gay
goalie fail…USA DRAW. The tagline is fail in itself if you regard not losing as a win
Nothing wrong with being happy with a draw! Especially if your team is expected to be annihilated and most definitely ISN’T one of the most prestigious football teams. To go up against a team like England and come out even isn’t that bad…
live it up while you can america, that’s the only “win” you will get.
correction, it’s the only “draw” they will get. They’re not getting further than that
I am from Croatia and I am laughing at you HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Aff… all the raging 13-year-old England fans are giving the rest of us a bad name on here.
Trust me – I’m English and we’re not all retarded.
Just most of us.
“Goalie Mistake, USA Draw”
England could rape the US any day in FOOTBALL… i’d liek to see you score without the mistake of a goal keeper, fat chance yanks!
I’d LIKE to see your goal keeper not make a mistake. Even if USA had lost by the outrageous score of 1-0…it would be far from a “rape.”
This is accurate.
why not just post the flippin video instead of a picture of a goalie crying? save a lot of time and actual failures of people viewing the site.
USA = worst player deployment and gaming of the cup
wanna see when you catch up with germany, brazil (graffity) or what else..
that goal was pure fail of the england gk
lets see whats gonna come about with algeria and slovenia though…
Can’t exactly call it a win, the match was a draw – and still, America played shockingly poor, this goal isn’t something to be proud of and it was your only goal of the night. England had a lot more chances and we scored in the fourth minute, with a cracking goal too.
Okay, but the keeper wasn’t that bad…(the USA one)
It was an easy mistake to make by green
Oh and to you retarded yanks, this is football, not soccer
Hey dumbass wanker, f ur SOCCER (THAT RIGHT I SAID IT AND WHAT!) Real football is played with your hands, like real men
Then why call it football, when you don’t use your feet.
If you are going to use your hands, play rugby like real men and don’t use all this pansy armour.
Heres why rugby players dont wear any armor, and leave everything vulnerable
http://probablybadnews.com/2010/06/11/funny-news-he-has-his-hands-on-the-prize/#comments
Wow really? Thanks for going ahead and getting the “generic ignorant comment” out of the way for us. What are you, like 9?
Oh the american version of football which doesn’t use feet and its not a ball? which is a pansy version of rugby coz u have to wear armour in case u get hurt? oh boo hoo rofl. REAL men dont suit up to take little pansy tackles. enjoy ur girly game u will never know what real sports are
=| hm. but,
USA, still the worst football team ever. =)
haha do you really want that? Since England definitely did not win handily, I’m not sure if you want USA’s football team to be accepted as the “worst” team ever…
Especially as half the US team play in the premier league.
Do not mock Rob Green, the man has more football talent in his little finger than most of the commenters on here, myself included.
And at least we call it football because the feet are used, as opposed to American Football, were much (not all though) of the play is with the ball in the hands.
West Ham fan? Me too.
As a Scot:
1) the game is called football
2) the game where big wusses hide inside several feet of cushioning and run towards each other is called “American Football”
3) the USA did not win
4) England DEFINITELY lost
And it’s a totally legit fail.
And, I feel really sorry for the poor sod… he’ll never live it down for the rest of his life.
And trust the US to take all the credit, when the British do all the work.
Sorry for so many comments, but I get the feeling that had Tim Howard had done this, it wouldn’t be on Failblog, he’d be getting a medal.
Mmm…. He is bent over like he wants to take it up the poopie hole! I would gladly shove it in!!!
No, USA didn’t win, it was a mistake from England. Plus we scored the first goal so HA!
Football….
Just saying.
(Also, USA didn’t win…)
USA Fail….it’s giving them false hope. No way they’ll pass next round
@stackmonster – Actually we invented the word ‘soccer’ as well. It’s a contraction of association football (ASOC is how posh kids in public (read ‘private’) schools (specifically the Oxford colleges) distinguish it from rugby – which they call rugby football.) The ‘er’ suffix is a posh type of slang. The term soccer football is still prevalent among the upper classes.

Thank You.

To be fair to Robert Green, he made one mistake and some cracking saves after that 1 mistake, albeit a big one. Heskey and Lampard both failed harder and more impressively than Green yet green get’s fed to the English press as the scapegoat for the draw.
on another note, have you seen this bigger fail that i think is worthy of being known as an epci fail …..http://cheezburger.com/Casperuk/lolz/View/3630439168
bollocks i meant epic fail!!!!!
I saw this and was all like EPIC FAIL YOU SUCK GREEN!
Nobody will ever forget that embarrassing moment. Not ever! It will go down in soccer history!
1. “Soccer” (the word) was indeed invented in English private schools to distinguish from “Rugger” (Rugby). It became the default in the US for what British call “football”to distinguish from the American football game (adapted from Rugby).
2. Proud Brits that insist it should be called football are wrong – as the nickname originated in England.
3. Proud Americans that insist it should be called soccer are inadvertantly upholding an ancient English elitist term! (So much for the tea party, huh?)
4. The US is a good team, with experienced pros playing in good quality leagues all over the world. While England perhaps should have won, the US certainly could have won. The result is probably fair.
5. That was certainly a big FAIL by Green.
6. Heskey’s miss later on was a bigger FAIL.
7. I think we’ll both go through to the next stages – though Slovenia will be a tricky side to face.
8. Good luck USA, and come on England!
Finally, someone who knows what they’re talking about.
Thank you!
Heskey’s miss wasn’t that big a fail – because it was expected. He couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn.
READ THIS ALL OF YOU !!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:English_inventions
compare it too:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:American_inventions
then you can read this:
its England vs America. not britain vs America, britain is made up of England, Scotland and Wales, The UK is made up of britain and Northern Ireland (and c.i, i.w, i.m) those in N.Ireland are classed as either U.K citizens or British citizens. (because its the united kingdoms of northern Ireland and britain)(no we arent great anymore, not until Cameron sorts out the labours mess)
also just because we let you get through doesnt mean a fail, just means we want to see you get slaughtered by a less skilled country, just to make us laugh harder.
now with all that said lets agree on 1 thing. We all love chocolate milk
So long as the US doesnt win im happy.
And yes america, like it or not u r ignorant. as an example, most of the world knows where Obama resides, but how many know where the Brit’s queen lives?
Im canadian and i gotta say, calling it soccer is gaytarded.
The Queen has zero relevance to anyone else than tourists visiting the Buckingham Palace
‘u r ignorant’
love it. Thanks for the chuckle.
USA is going down, I’m just saying…
Hey, that reminds me, what group is Canada in…. Oh wait, sorry…
Haha, I refuse to believe we were trying. If we tried we would win every time and it would take all the fun out of it.
Well, if I were you, I’d win just enough games to qualify, but still lose enough to make it interesting.
America would take any goal the can get. Massive population and still can’t get a good sports team.
That “green” guy won’t be able to walk into an English Bar, ever again.
Anyone who lets an American score a goal fails.
I’m sorry we get slowed down by all the gold medals we earn in the Olympics. Your country has won what events now?
USA won
http://www.francescjosep.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/usawinssoccer.jpg
technically it’s england fail, USA draw. lol. but how bout that for a howler.
I was expecting like, the first X-1 instead of X-0 for US, but a tie?!
For the best english team ever – the best vuvuzela-player ever!
After watching 4 games so far all I have to say is I wish all those trumpet blowers would stick the damn things somewhere dark and moist.
vuvuzela fail
Hey in america, a tie is as close to a win as they can get. so hurrah for usa.
Dudes!
Its football get it you kick the ball with your foot! Ie Football world cup!Not Soccer. Not Futbol!!!
What you Americans call football, we call Rugby……. and we don’t wear helmets or padding!!!
Your grandma doesn’t wear helmets or padding!
I’m neither from the USA, nor from England, and you “two” piss me off.
For me there’s the American Football, which is the game with the handegg and armor. There is Rugby, it’s like American Football, but without armor, and slight different rules.
And there is Football, which is the one what the this post is all about.
You call ‘em different, and then argue about it, but hell it has no point at all.
Not to mention real sports begin when you skip the ball.
Your “grandma” pisses me off. Argue–no argue, skip the ball–no skip the ball. MMA is a real sport and you have to have balls to play it!
Holy s**t @ all the comments! This has to be the most prolific fail thread of all time! Very funny though.
I still hate soccer you know. Just don’t remember if you remember me or not. By the way, I think no less ill of you for liking it. I just don’t like it. handshake? handshake?
Correct me if I’m wrong, but USA didn’t win…
But USA didn’t win, So whoever wrote that caption fails.
americans someday they will win the world cup?
LOOOOL, but this sport is not the right one for americans…
There are plenty of countrys very good. Argentina, Brazil, Spain, Portugal, France, Italy, Germany, England, Netherlands. This are the strongest countrys in soccer. If england played against USA in quarter finals for example, it would be a massacre for USA
btw: you have soccer because you don’t know how to play it
http://cheezburger.com/View/3632163072
United Steakes of America are only good at eating fast food.
Amirite?
Nope, way off.
Nah, I think I’m right.
best fail ever
Reminds me of the weird word the people in the US call “fussball”, we call it “table football”.
It’s German. Fußball.
Except I could swear the one time I was in Germany they actually called it “Table-Foot”
Germans call it “Kicker”.
ان شاء الله اللى يفوز فى كاس العالم يستحق هذا الفوز
اتمنى التوفيق للجميع
واتمنى يعم الحب والخير بين الناس
Exactly!
Now, that clears everything up.
Rofl. Only the Americans can see a draw as a win.
England’s goalie made a mistake.. the usa got lucky because of Englands fault. What the epic fail is that the americans seem to think they ”won” on ”skill” when in fact they tied.. with luck. But hey its no biggie really. The usa is gettin better at footie but will never reach the levels of the other good teams. And to top it of if Beckham was playing there is no doubt that the americans would have been slaughtered
“USA win”?
LMFAO! It was 1-1 you fat retarded wankers.
Exactly.
It’s USA Draw. Neither team managed an overall Win NOR Fail.
Dear American who made this one: Your guy let a goal in as well!
I didn’t see it clearly but I bet he was a lot further from the mark than Green, who nearly got it, but let it slip from his grasp. Though it is still arguably the bigger fail, what with the defeat-from-jaws-of-victory thing.
Ok, for the last time, England was so heavily favored that everybody expected them to win. Therefore, tying them seems like a win. Don’t take everything word for word. If I said it was raining cats and dogs, would you actually expect to see cats and dogs falling from the sky?
English people… u mad brah?
LMAO at the England Vs. Usa War
Don’t you f*** understand that “USA win” doesn’t mean that USA won in this case? That “win” is the oposite of “fail”.
I just find it so funny that England couldn’t even beat us in a sport that no one in this country even cares about. Hahaha. Soccer is gay and so are pasty, snaggle tooth brits.
not really funny actually, u kno it doesnt take much to make a football team and u can get lucky with a goal. i can guarente if we bothered to play any of ur sissy games over there u wud get pwned on a regularly basis u fat yank
Good to see reasonable level-headed arguments based on comparative analysis and unbiased data.
This sucks, England should have won hahaha. I feel really bad for this goalie.
this is NO laughing matter!!!
It was never a USA win but simply a TEMPORARY England fail!!
ENLAND RULE!!! <3
(just not at this moment in time)
Boo hiss etc.
Actually, I laughed quite a lot, even as a dedicated English football fan. Yeah, we c*cked up. Fingers crossed for the next two games.
This comment has nothing to do with soccer / football draw, win or loss but since it keeps getting thrown around that the USA can’t compete athletically unless we are playing in our own leagues in any sport I just have to say…… 2008 Summer Olympics USA medals = 110 (THE MOST) Great Britain medals = 47 (not bad) 2010 Winter Olympics USA medals 37 (THE MOST) Great Britain..wait for it….1
Ha ha, wow, I love how testy people get over soccer. It’s like Twilight fans getting testy when their book is made fun of.
As for the million comments sying, “USA sucks, what sports are they good at?” It seems every four years anti-American sentiment is at its highest when we kick everyones as in the Olympics. Guess everyone forgot about the world class athletes, along with the world class fatties, we output.
Yuu kick everyones ass in the Olympics?
2008 summer olympics–> China > USA
2010 winter olympics–> Canada and Germany > USA
Are you refuting the fact that the USA got 110 and 37 to Great Britain’s 47 and 1 respectively? Look at the medal count again. USA had the most overall medals in both Summer and Winter…..besides I didn’t say we were better than everyone…but Great Britain, without a doubt.
As an American I have to apologize to all the Brits out there.
We really dont care about soccer (the mere fact that we call it soccer illustrates shows this) and sucks that we got the draw off this horrible fail.
Good luck to you guys and hope you win the WC.
i find it funny how america are celebrating a draw, they never celebrated that tie they got against North Vietnam…
The biggest fail was the UK ITV HD coverage of the first goal (even tho that was bloody funny as well)
I lol’d so hard at that on Saturday!
@JS_SMITH : We also never celebrated dragging your pathetic British asses out of the Germans hands, now did we? Oh wait….
Also, the fact that your English Ninnies couldn’t even beat us at YOUR BEST GAME….pathetic as well.
That makes the score USA : 2, England : -1
(The negative is for when we trashed your asses in a little scuffle for the land we call home)
Have a good one, trapped on your little island.
kick off was at 19.30 so i was surprised you didn’t turn up in 19.41 and claim victory like you have done on previous occassions and what do you mean trashed our asses, the majority of the american population have english ancestors from when we first settled in america, but yeah good one(Y)
To be fair our military resources were only ever contested once the French became involved.
It’s rather nice here, you’d find. People, for instance, manage by-and-large to complete and entire sentence without using the word ‘like’ several times.
It is indeed a little island. It’s baffling that its empire covering a quarter of the surface of the Earth gave rise to modern America.
And, you know, modern systems of law, governance, the world’s lingua franca. The only thing you seem not to’ve cottoned onto is the world’s greatest sport, preferring instead to put your weight behind your bent little isolationist sports for which there’s plenty of talk of global involvement (world series etc.) but actually no real opportunity to get your arses handed to you to by foreign participants.
Have a good one. I’m told methanol is good for removing oil stains.
You are correct, America’s major sports do isolate themselves from other countries, for the most part. But in many sports they play against international teams. Take the World Baseball Classic for one. For most other sports, isn’t that what the Olympics are for? So, Americans do play against other countries in sports, with the exception of American football.
As for America owing credit to England for its birth, I agree, America does owe some credit. But also to many other European countries that people came to America from, which has created it into the country it is today. If these people had not decided that Europe was starting to suck and come to America, we would not be here today. “This place is starting to blow. Let’s bounce.” – Leader of the Pilgims
“Pilgrims” – Me so sorry for typo
My point is, mistake or not, you still couldn’t beat us at your only real sport and that’s what matters. As for English ancestry, loads of people here have English roots but your mistake is assuming I share those roots. As for your “empire”…it’s long gone and it’s never coming back.
This isn’t a “USA Win” at all.
It’s just a HUGE England fail. Our keeper sucks balls
That’s unfair, he made a miscalculation in a split second, deciding to rebound the ball rather than catch it as he might’ve done if he believed the ball was going faster.
“Our keeper sucks balls” if only, i think you meant to say our keeper drops balls
Too many man children being butthurt over a GAME. If you take a sporting event so seriously, I’d hate to see what’d happen if someone took your seat on the bus or something.
Just like the American Revolution, England FAILS
Y’know I don’t do national pride normally, but shut up and leave the poor guy alone, he made a mistake, when you play for your country, and actually win rather than draw by the skin of your teeth and because of the opposition’s miscalculation, you can criticise all you want.
Nobody is perfect. It’s just that for months I had to hear about how much better England was and how the U.S. had no chance.
But it was hardly an ‘England FAILS’ moment, especially since we drew.
But Wolfie the FAIL is that England (soccer country extraordinaire) tied with USA (country that can’t play soccer to save their life)
It would be like Australia drawing with Germany instead of getting their asses kicked 4-0, everyone, even the Aussie fans fully expected the Germans to pound us into the grass, which is also what everyone (even the Americans) expected England to do to the US. The fact they couldn’t and the fact that your goalie has butter fingers = FAIL
Meh, either way.
Anyway, I probably shouldn’t talk, I have a list of the countries I will support when England get kicked out.
Come on Holland! XD
Argh, Olympic game.
Let’s not forget that your team only drew with us because our goalie had a momentary slip up on a very easy shot.
If it had just been down to the skill of your nation’s players, you would have lost.
OMG will you all just shut up? Who cares if its football or soccer? Or if England or USA is better, man, I knew this kind of discussion was going on here when I saw the pic. First of all, I watched the whole game, and people are missing the point, Green made a mistake, it was funny but also sad for the team, Secondly, as an american I call it soccer and football, whatever I feel like saying.
Btw, guys It’s still a sport! Stop acting like baby’s and saying your country is better, thats what little kids do. I’m just sayin O.o
Seeyah xxx
Asking soccer/football fans to act like adults is about as likely as herding cats.
ACTUALLY SOCCER WAS INVENTED BY THE AZTECS A SIMILAR GAME WAS PLAYED BY THE AZTECS ONLY THEY USED THERE WAIST TO HIT THE BALL AND THEY HAD TO MAKE IT IN HOOP AND THEN THE EUROPEANS MADE CHANGED THE GAME BY USING THERE FEET
Yes. A game so similar that it bears virtually no similarities to football at all.
“Goalie Fail, USA Win”
Yeehaw, we done won 1-1!
Leave Green alone! TTATT -Pats Green-
you people make me laugh, “soccer – footbal” it doesn’t matter, enjoy the game. this event is every 4 years!!!!!
sorry my lame english i’m from Chile – South america.
USA doesn’t won …. gringos chsm!
You people do realize, that despite the America/England and “soccer”/”football” debating, that not a single one of you has convinced another of your points? Shout to the wind, since the faceless names you’re shouting at now care nothing for your point of view.
Lets add a bit of humor to this whole debacle
http://senorgif.com/2010/06/14/funny-gifs-problem/#comments
Soon after, he posted FML on he’s facebook.
I must of missed this. What happened again? only kidding
9/11 Tower Fail, Iran Win!
woop woop
wait……England GIVES USA a goal, and USA are the ones who win?
USA failed in that match…….
Ever heard the phrase ‘won the battle but lost the war’?
Same concept. The goal itself could be considered a small win, while the outcome of the game was not technically a win.
“1 fois, 2 fois, 3 fois, Frappe du gauche et c’est …WHOAAAAAA le But !!!!”
Lame.
That explains why he couldn’t catch that shot.
this is byass
What is up with all of the country to country insults? You can’t make assumptions about millions of people at a time. Not all of America is fat and stupid and there are a good amount of people who enjoy soccer/football. Also, not every one is super far right. I’m a bleeding liberal in fact. And yeah, America uses different words than Europe. No big deal. I’ve never been to Europe, but it seems like a pretty cool place. I don’t have any stereotypes about England or Britain or the UK or any other part of Europe. This is a World Cup Match, not WWIII. When it comes down to it Green made a simple mistake, but England is definitely the better team. You just have to deal with these things in sports.
That was the only way America was going to get in the goal. So yeah. Enjoy your moment of glory USA. You don’t deserve it.
Soccer was invented many thousands of years ago when an army would kick around the decapitated head of the losing general. Since that was only good for a short while, they started stuffing small round bags with straw and such so it would last longer.
What the British invented was a superior game called Rugby. One day while playing soccer, William Ellis picked up the ball (with his HANDS!) and ran with it. He scored a goal easily. The other players beat him up. Since this happened at Rugby school, he created the game because he couldn’t understand why you can’t use your hands.
American football is a derivation of rugby. Both are superior to soccer which has no strategy at all. Just kick the ball into a net.
I guess i’d have to be a fan to understand…
I don’t understand either….
CALA BOCA GALVÃO!
Greece will win the World Cup
This is stupid. What about the next game with Slovenia. That was a big FAIL for USA.
more of a fail for incompetent officiating…
Isn’t this all getting slightly out of hand. I mean, it’s kind of obvious England are crap, and no offense, but usa are no better. You only got that goal because, no matter what anyone else says, Green failed. Sorry it’s the truth. so really fails all around. Now don’t argue back. And btw, I don’t think England will win. Especially if Rooney keeps playin like a 5 year old!
Lmao I saw this game, hes retarded, he dodged the ball.
This is pointless. Brazil will win the cup, this is all that matters!
GO BRAZIL!
Its likely this is was actually celebrated more in scotland than the USA =P YAAAAAAAS!
dont worry man that failure will just live with u for the rest of ur life
.
Actualy the match was draw. Nobody won.
I’ve learn a few good stuff here. Definitely value bookmarking for revisiting. I surprise how much effort you place to create the sort of magnificent informative website.
