im happy to say that all the teams i thought would win won, wish i made a bet now seeing as the odds wouldve been pretty good for slovenia, ghana, germany treble.
i could tell straight away germany were gonna win looking at the aussies line-up, cahill upfront? wouldnt say he deserved a sending off like but they did foul a lot so..
germany were playing 4-5-1 as well, look a strong side to me and more entertaining than the rest.
japan v cameroon – what a bore…
hopefully the italy v paraguay can make up for it!

Italy is gonna have to turn it up a couples of notches in the second half…Paraguay just might beat them.

@emdeepee – what did you think of the Holland game? they were pretty solid through out, Agger's own goal was extremely (funny!) unlucky but they definately deserved the 3 points.
@LunaMoonfang – For a team that plays defensive football Italy made that look woeful! urgh & as I speak all 4 defenders failed to clear an attack that didn't look dangerous at all.

I didn't say that they don't fail.

Italy tied Paraguay… lame.
Italy played like complete shit in the first half, but I think they actually played pretty good in the second half. If they can keep playing like they did in the second half, they might actually win some games.
With that said, Germany is winning this thing. Amazing team!

still, with that second half performance they wont win the world cup, nor even get to the final. i loved how gary lineker and alan hansen were saying 'thats how italy play' and that – very true, most of the players didnt even get a touch of the ball as all they did was pass it around the defence! marchisio played so poor, i wouldnt even play him next game.
ronaldo unlucky hitting the post from a good bit of skill and a nice long range effort. hes been up to his old tricks again though exaggerating tackles, loved seeing him get booked himself! (:
seriously hope the brazil game is better than this.

@Spudchip
It was a draw. NZ got an equaliser in the 92nd minute.

The only team I've seen so far that have impressed me are the Germans. Scored 4 could have had 8. Having said that the Brazilians have just kicked off so hopefully they'll put on a show.
I know teams are desperate to avoid defeat in the first game, but some of these matches have been boring as hell.
Was made up for the Kiwi's though. They know they're not the best team there but showed a lot of fighting spirit and got what they deserved (especially since Slovakia's goal was offside).

Definitely. Italy will have to REALLY step it up if they even want a chance at winning the cup. We will find out Sunday if they have improved at all. Italy is not much of an attacking team, their goal opportunities always come from free kicks and corners. Always. But thats how they play, and it certainly worked for them in 2006. It could still work for them, they just got to pick up the pace. There is a player on their team named Pepe i believe, he was great. Him and Camoranesi created a lot of chances, but the strikers just could not finish. And the Italian defense was so weak.. Cannavaro is playing poorly.

honestly the world cup ball looks shite! it just floats away and looks to easy to strike. all free kicks up to now have been poor except gourcuff's effort.
brazil game as pretty good, i was really impressed with robinho, definetly going to be the spark for brazil. on the other hand kaka suprisingly was very poor imo, creating nothing and not doing much tbh. michel bastos and maicon were great attackers from fullback as well.
haha at spain! switzerland are really taking the game to them!

Looks like South Africa are on the way out. They haven't a hope of beating France (cough! Cheating Bast*rds! cough!) and it's likely they'll be the first nation ever to not make it to the knock-out stages of their own tournament. I'd feel sorry for them but I can't forgive them for introducing those retarded horns.
Spain were pathetic today. They have a team of mega-stars and they couldn't even hit the target half the time. I'd say the Swiss still can't believe they won.
Still, a celebration is called for. We had three games today and not a single draw!!
