Make that 2-1 to Brazil

Maicon's goal was a stonker - best goal of the tournament so far.

Totally agree and I am not sure North Korea will be the worst team in the tournament as we had all assumed.

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

I actually thought that Brazil struggled against the Koreans as they were the most defensive team, they outrun and often outsmarted the Brazilians.

To be honest I was expecting this to be at least 6 - O to Brazil, so well done Korea for a good game to watch.

Loved the way the substitute South African goalie started warming up in front of Forlan. Didn't do him any good but bloody funny.

South Africa 0 Uruguay 3

Forlan is now top scorer in the World Cup and South Africa had their keeper sent off.

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

Nigeria 1 Greece 2

Nigeria had a player sent off when they were leading and goalkeeping error lead to their winning goal

France 0 Mexico 2

If Mexico and Uruguay draw in the last match then France are OUT of the world cup.

France 0 Mexico 2

Correction: Cheese-eating Nancy-boy surrender monkeys 0 Mexico 2

Watching France lose is almost as good as watching England win.

Watching France lose is almost as good as watching England win.

Sorry, additional correction for fans of Ireland

Dirty cheating lying scumbags 0 Mexico 2....
I heard that everyone in Ireland were cheering that result. South Africa beating them would put the icing on the cake or the head on the guiness

Good luck tonight England.

Watch the shape and direction of the ball though!

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

That extra special very spherical ball must be a nightmare to play with. You couldn't make up a poorer excuse.

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

This is the most boring match England v Algeria
