That was the first of the matches I have watched and I was impressed with the Korean players - nippy guys, good in defence and fast in attack. Good game. :)

First win, hmm.

Also, I just noticed LiveScore has a full minute by minute updates for each match.

Wow, 1-0 already!

Thinks you have drunk too much already :)



I haven't had a drop yet. I'm just.. blinded by patriotism?

Well it's either one or the other.

In true British tradition, I have bought a crate of Carlsburg Export, 40 cigarettes, an England shirt and flag. Going to watch it at my uncles with my three uncles two aunts cousin step dad and a few family friends. We also have a PS3 and an xbox with football games.

I love weekends.

Could have gone both ways really, Nigeria just needed better finishing . 1-0 is the slenderest of leads aye.

Nigeria's keeper has been immense. He's made 4 or 5 great saves.

And Nigeria's finishing has been woeful.

My exact thoughts. He certainly seemed to have Messi's number.

Only Howard and Donovon can compete against the England players in their position. I'm expecting Heskey to mess about the USA defenders a bit. Hopefully they haven't seen many players as powerful as him.

Prediction:

3-1 England.

He's the reason we have a chance to win the trophy. There isn't one disciplined player in the England team, virtually all of them are only not in prison cos money talked and they walked.
US missed a sitter!! Do you wanna win?
