I remember when Scotland came to Wembley, did a pitch invasion and nicked our goalposts lol.

Argentina (1) too strong for an enthusiastic Nigeria (0).

Nigeria disappointed me as I expected far more- bit rushed in build up and tactically naive. Good goalie for Nigeria, kept them in the game.

Argentina very strong in midfield and surplus of gifted players that can score, but vulnerable rear.

So we are left with England against USA.......we will see.

Re: Football World Cup 2010 thread---Africa awaits

England 1 USA 1......a draw that I had predicted all week(though maybe not on here).
Bad mistake by Green and an average performance by him but this is only the first match and the next one will count more.

Algeria 0 Slovenia 1.
Awful game and another goalkeeping howler but the Algerian keeper. Their striker took 14 minutes as a sub to get sent off. That was it.

Germany 4 Australia 0

Scandalous sending off from the ref of Tim Cahill of Australia but Germany were very very impressive.
