Last night they played 2 games. They totally out played Nigeria (4-2) and then they played Portugal and won easily (6-2). They have to be taken as one of the favourites as they still have not used any of their Saskatoon players.

If Germany, Canada, or Jamaica start tying each other, they can really hurt their own chances at making it out. Getting 2 ties in this group could easily eliminate your chance of making it out. Ukraine and Poland, although not strong favorites to make it out, could actually play a very large spoiler role in this group. No teams can take any game lightly ( excluding anyone who plays scotland because they are terrible and we all know it) <br />my pick : Germany and Jamaica. <br />Canada will come close... but they play down to the level of the lesser teams, and will finish with 3 ties.Jean-Yusnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877352591328171428.post-3976708904573961622011-03-01T12:42:49.699-06:002011-03-01T12:42:49.699-06:00Lots players just showed up for tryout against Jam...Lots players just showed up for tryout against Jamaica and we will likely cut half of the team that showed up against Jamaica and England. We just wanted to make sure that everyone has a chance to show their ability in couple friendly tryouts. For the game vs. England we showed up expecting to practice, but it turned out that they had half of the field and we had the other half of the field, so we just played. We were missing half of our actual team including our keeper in both games. Anyways, we have 6 more friendly game in March and hopefully can show you and our fan something to cheer for. We play this Sunday at 10:00pm against Norway, which should be a good game. <br /><br />In March we also have 8 practices, so will do our best to be as ready as possibly by the beginning of the tournament. Having said that, Jamaica is a great team and they will be a real contender to make it out of group D. <br /><br />FYI - Won 4-3 against England. But we missed lots of chances including 2 posts. No disrespect to England because they have improved a lot since last year. <br /><br />Lost 5-1 to Jamaica. We started very sloppy but improved substantially as the game evolved. The second half was 1-1. But at the end of the day the final score counts and we lost. <br /><br />Thanks for pointing our mistakes and like I said before on team Canada blog, please don't post inappropriate comment. As we all know some of these blogs have been filled with nasty and inappropriate comments. At the end of the day no matter who we are or what we do, we have to realize that we need to get along. I know lots of people who are not involved in the soccer community but are talking about this tournament and how big it is getting! Unfortunately some of the comments on some of these blogs will turn those people away. We also have to remember that this tournament also consists of Youth teams and Women teams. As such, there are lots of youngsters including my younger siblings who regularly sneak out and visit these blogs. I think we as adults have an obligation to try to be a good role model to them instead of insulting each other behind a computer screen. I know we are human and full of emotion and as you all know, we had an incident with referee last year. I take complete responsibility for being at fault: at the end of the day the referee is the law and there is no game without them. But anyways, some of you might be laughing at this post and some of you be thinking, but please consider the consequence of your action. At the end of the day people don’t just say an individual/team has no class, but they say the entire soccer community is made up of a bunch of idiots! <br /><br />I wish you all the best in the tournament! <br />Ahmad Kamali<br />Team Afghanistan ManagerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877352591328171428.post-3723600208831521082011-03-01T09:06:53.177-06:002011-03-01T09:06:53.177-06:00yeah I watched Afghan play against England a littl...yeah I watched Afghan play against England a little while ago and they looked like a bit of a mess out there.
