One of my good buddies at work is Mexican and we go back and forth all day.

I\'m pulling for USA of course but The Netherlands are always my 2nd team due to my Dutch heritage.

watched the france v switzerland game earlier, the frogs were lucky to get a draw, a very average performance.
 
I missed the best bit of the match though and didn\'t realise it. After the game had ended, the french players were arguing with each other.
 
I laughed....
 
 
Saw the brazil v croatia match too, another average performance, but brazil showed that even if they play shite, they can still turn on the flair in an instant.
 
If brazil are going to lose it, it will be due to another lacklustre performance like that.
 
I saw someone on yahoo earlier who thinks germany could win, I don\'t know what german team he was watching, but it obviously wasn\'t the one that played costa rica on friday.

I have to say it...

GO MEXICO!!

Although...better teams will shit all over them. Good thing they are in a sorta easy division...sorta...Portugal maybe...



Yeah. I hate to admit it, but Mexico is in a VERY easy group in my opinion.

The USA is fucked. Have you seen who they play? ITALY AND CZECHS?!

Jesus.

Brazil...I\'m getting tired of them. It\'s like, all their country does is breed soccer players.

the germany/poland game has just finished, and it looks like the poles are going to be the first ones going home, even before the australians.
 
I still don\'t think germany will do much, they played a polish team that seems to be in turmoil, poland made germany look better than they are if you ask me.
 
PS. I think adan was sandbagging about spains chances, they played earlier and they shit all over the ukraine.
 
If that\'s what they play like when they are playing bad, I\'d hate to see what they can do when they are playing well

:) They didnt played bad... but there\'s still much to improve. Let them a couple of matches more and Spain will show you what it can do.

PS: did you see Torres\' goal? I think it\'s the best play in the world cup yet.

watching sweden vs paraguay

sweden has insane passing skills..whenever teams chip it it just seems like theyre dumping it and hoping for the best, but theres always a teamate there to get the pass. Cept when they get to the goal they cant get a shot.

watching it myself, just seen paraguay get out of jail, similar to the clearance terry made foe england earlier.
 
speaking of england, overall they dominated I think, especially in the second half. They just couldn\'t hit the spot though.
 
When rooney came on, it opened the game right up, there was a free flowing tempo to the game.
 
In total, they had 25 shots at goal, 8 of which were on target. They should have had at least 3, with possibly as many as 4-5.
 
I think there\'s plenty of room for improvement, lampard wasn\'t clinical enough in his finishing as he should be, he had chances, the sort you shouldn\'t be squandering at that level.
 
Gerrard lennon & terry stood out from the crowd for me.
 
Considering he has just come back from injury, I think rooney did himself no harm whatsoever, a solid performance. Even though he wasn\'t quite up to match fitness, he ran his bollocks off.
 
When he hits peak form, he might cause a lot of problems for the opposition. I just hope someone with a grudge singles him out and tries go take him out.
 
It\'s a pity owen is so far off the mark though, he\'s clearly not there, with him and rooney up front, fully fit, they could run rings round a lot of defences.
 
That lanky fucker crouch did the business I suppose in getting that goal, but I think a defence with any nouse about them will tie him up in knots, I can see him becoming less and less effective attacking-wise as the competition goes on.

US played a great game, too bad that fucktard in the center they call a ref fucked them hard in the ass, I have never seen so many bullshit calls in my life, he called fouls on the US like he was a Muslim extremist or some shit, both Red cards on the US were not justified, the guy who elbowed McBride should have been thrown out, I can\'t stand Italy as they play like fags and flop all over the place!!! I think if the US can play like today they will devour Ghana, Czech did not play well at all and Ghana came out and played brilliant and deserved to win there match.

They did play a good game and your fucking right. I\'m a semi-USA fan...(I was born here)...but no I don\'t hate America. I grew up in Mexico so I mean...you can\'t blame me for going for Mexico.

But Italians do play like assholes.

It\'s like those damn argentinan\'s that fucking pray to Maradona and that god damn goal that he made with his hand. They are so proud of that cheap as play.

FUCK ARGENTINA

I duff my cap to you, there\'s not one bit of that comment that isn\'t true.
 
Argentina as a country is up maradona\'s arse, not bad for someone who\'s been a junkie & suspected drug trafficker in the past.
 
He\'s a cheat, he admitted it himself, he\'s done fuck all in the last 20 years or so, and they still think the sun shines out of his arse.
 
 
PS. Yanks played really well, they held the itallians with a man down.

another very, very average performance by brazil.
 
I\'m beginning to reassess my view about them winning the championship now. Going off the first 2 brazil games, I don\'t think they will win it.
 
Having said that, they have played shite in the group stage in the past, then when they get to the knockout stages, they turn up the wick.

I have to agree cereb I think they are waiting before they have to turn up the heat when they get in the next rounds, but if they do continue to play like they have been anybody could beat them.
