2010 FIFA World Cup

[Mainland Marauder]

1-0 Paraguay. Pretty goal there in traffic in front of the net.

 

I'm watching the game on Univision in Spanish with the sound mostly turned down because the "GOOOOOOOOOOOOOL" call is the one thing that can penetrate the wall of vuvuleza noise.

[AndyGanteks]

Wow Paraguay. That was a bit shocking. Italy got work to do now.

[Canoxa]

What the hell, Buffon subbed with no sign of injury.

[3minty3]

I got Paraguay in a sweepstake. Come on Paraguay.

[Two-Gun-Tommy]

Apparently the sub goalie looked awful in the warm up according to the annoying voice of Mick McCarthy. Its a shame because he's in my dream team Buffon that is....

[Canoxa]

Italy ties by De Rossi! Good for them, I guess. Let's see if the game develops.

[Huricannez]

if italy doesnt win, I'll laugh.

[AndyGanteks]

3 minutes + extra time to go.

 

terrible goalkeeping there by Paraguay goalie, that was just obviously going above him.

[Canoxa]

That handball by Di Natali was hilarious.

[Two-Gun-Tommy]

Hmmmm and I thought Englands result was bad.

[GTAdedan]

if italy doesnt win, I'll laugh.

Start laughing

[Seddo]

Paraguay are a good side, they did beat Argentina and Brazil in their qualifying stages, so certainly no push overs.

[AnthMUFC-Champs]

Well done to Paraguay, so pleased for them.

[SIKKS66]

Ah man I need to read more into the teams. I'm sure I read Paraguay had a sh*t qualifying campaign. Oops.

 

I'm not sure how to go with a prediction for the Brazil game;Brazil are obviously a class act and can tear the best teams apart on a good day but they might have the first-match jitters and North Korea will be a disciplined unit so I'm only going to go for a 4-0. If it was Brazil vs. North Korea in match 3 I could easily see a demolition but I'm not sure about tomorrow. NK are such a mystery...

[Jay]

Schadenfreude is still freude.

 

Eat a dick, Italy.

The North Korean WAGs arrive in South Africa:

 

[LanceVanceDance07]

Good result for Paraguay, did anyone see De Rossi's dive in the first half? I died laughing, it looked like he got shot in the back.

[Bates_GTA]

I always thought Paraguay were a poor side, but by the looks of the bench they had, it was far from bad atall.

 

Bringing on Santa Cruz & Cardoza late on shows depth. Poor from Italy, Looks stale and boring. Hopefully this teaches teams not to sit back and defend all game.

 

Looking forward to tomorrows game Ivory Coast and Portugal looks tasty.

[Straznicy]

I was gutted for Paraguay, I would really have liked to see them win. It took Italy 75 minutes to get their act together, which doesn't bode well for them. But in all fairness, it was their first game of the tournament.

[AndyGanteks]

I find this weird(happened before Germany match, african volonters protesting over low payment)

 

 

 

 

[TommyMufc-Champs]

^^^ Yeah I saw that on the news, It Is quite wierd.

[dargo18]

Germany have a big advantage. Last seasons' Bundesliga was played with the controversial Jabulani. I think they stand a very good chance of winning it.

[JoeyLeone25]

Good omens for New Zealand, they have two players in their squad today who don't even have a club (including there Captain for today Simon Elliot), and one of their players had to ask his Bank Manager for time off to come to the World Cup. Can the Part-Timers do it? Probably not.

[GTAdedan]

That was a nice goal by Slovakia

[dargo18]

Winston Reid

[Kaizer Chief]

F*ck yeah, get in you crazy Kiwis!

 

Kiwis 1-1 Slovaks thanks to 93rd-minute equalizer. Finally some real enthralling action in the WC.

[Sunrise Driver]

Nice one New Zealand!

[Kora]

A walk in the park. Just wait for next week, Italy will be on their knees begging, "please, no more!". Yes, to us Kiwis we won .

[Canoxa]

Go Portugal!

[SIKKS66]

f*ck you New Zealand! Costing me 2 points in the prediction league!

 

Seriously though, congrats to them. Slovakia must be gutted.
