England get past Canada by 51 runs to post first win

I know cricket isn't a real sport and that is why I posted it in soccer, but 51 runs sounds pretty bad and I can't dechiper the article.

Cricket......... pah !!!! bloody awful game. Whats the point of standing in a field all day

What's the point of running after a ball for 90 minutes, with 19 other guys, and the most pathetic, try to get it in a net somewhere?

not got a clue what sport your on about, if your refering to football its 11 a side..............you seem a prime example of women and sport

Well, thanks! I take that as a compliment...

But I wasn't talking about football, cause I have no clue about that. I WAS talking soccer however... 20 guys running after a ball, 2 standing somewhere doing not so much... Making 19 + you running, and 2 standing. Really, it IS 2nd grade math

ITS FOOTBALL !!!!!!!!! not soccer

I guess we mean the same sport, with a round ball?

When they talk about football here, they mean that sport with helmets and stuff, and that not so round ball, don't they? When you look at the topic name, it says:

SOCCER

I grew up with SOCCER, I live in The Netherlands

So, wich part of my post didn't you understand, my friend?

[Phoenix6]

i understood it all, but being from England we get awfuly upset at it being called soccer

ITS FOOTBALL.......... because you use your feet.

the sport with the helmets and stuff the ball is carried in the hands and rarely kick so why do they call it football, never understood that

[Brenda]

hey, I agree completelly, but since I didn't know where you are from, and you know where I am from, you are sneaky we call it "voetbal" here, where "voet" means foot and bal, well, it says it all

So you think it sounds like "sucker' too?

Still, why am I that perfect example of women and sports? My math was correct! Explain youself! (nuff said)

That's why it's so popular worldwide that we can actually have a World Cup in it, which you can't do with girly sports such as baseball and Gridiron.
