Niger vs Germany Scoreboard
I’m not sure how many people thought this was real, but deadspin did some fact checking and this definitely isn’t a scoreboard from a real game, rather a scoreboard from EA Sports’ 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa.
They really need to work on getting better abbreviations for scoreboards.

That’s Niger, not Nigeria.

Don’t need new abbreviations – just someone smart enough to realise they should have listed Germany first.

there are home and away teams in soccer, just like every other sport.
Jun 18, 2010 @ 14:40:05
it doesnt work that way the home team is always listed first on scoreboard
Jun 19, 2010 @ 06:41:33

The convention in soccer is home team first…

In places like Britain, that IS how they spell it. Just like the word license is spelled differently….USA uses an s and Britain uses a c (licence)….before you assume someone isn’t smart, consider where they are from….just saying.

yer is not smart enough to appreciate national or regional differences in the spelling of English words.

Yo, I’m black and I’m not offended. I think they did it on purpose but its funny as hell.

lol.
And it’s not SOCCER, it’s FOOTBALL!
Jul 28, 2010 @ 14:30:58
wrong, its futbal.
Jul 28, 2010 @ 18:59:30
you mean futbol?
Aug 22, 2010 @ 17:49:50
Ok Ok Ok! Yes it’s funny and yes we all have spelling differences. But don’t for one second think you can pull the wool over big jed’s eyes and call this little game anything but SOCCER. Football is for real athletes. It’s a real American sport, unlike soccer. There’s nothing more manly or american than the concept of football. Stealing another man’s land and wearing tight pants while doing it!
