@youcant hehehe sure sure one love....must say i'm enjoying watching Germany toring the Aussies apart..LOL.

It was difficult not to admire Argentina yesterday. Infact Nigeria seemed to have done well by just loosing 1-0 to Messi's team.

But I tell you,watching the poetic flow that is German soccer with their 25-year olds, currently winning 4-0 against Australia, has left me very forgetful of Argentina's performance.

Ghana: nice play, no results. Nigeria: probably better than ghana, xcellent Enyeama dude(makmende), gives me mo hope after such a sterling performance on an xcellent team. Algeria: hopeless, indisciplined, boring SA: Iko tu humu humu. So far Argentina, S. Korea n Yamany r definitely making it to 2nd round.

Football made in Germany. That is how a World Cup team should play! Sehr schöne Fußball!

What a performance by Germany...its amazing how these guys played considering most of their players were youngsters. I must say at this point, without considering the remaining teams yet to play, the Germans look like they can go all the way to the final.

I'm eagerly awaiting to see what The Mighty Oranje, La Furia Roja and the Selecao will do in the soming matches. Clearly Germany will not be sniffed at too. As for African teams, so far we lack the cutting edge in the final third.

Most African teams suffer from one problem - end product. Ghana IMHO did really well in defence and midfield but hapo mbele they should have scored more. Messi cannot always be stopped since Makmende (Enyeama) doesn't play for every African team.

Algeria were doing more or less OK until a rush of blood to the head... enough said.

Lets see if Cameroon have better finishing against Japan leo.

Na the English need to be dumped out of this cup ASAP. I simply can't stand their press.

Sasa hi ni nini? At 90:00 Japan 1 0 Cameroon. The Samurai have never won a world cup match out of their homeland.

And Cameroon had to choose to be the first to succumb to their sword.

How can you have one of the worlds best strikers playing in the right wing? Eto'o is centre forward. That's what foreign coaches who don't understand African Football do.
Reminds me of Hey playing Musa Otieno in Midfield.

Netherlands did not sparkle as we all hoped. Maybe if Robben was fit.

simonkabz, ati SA boring? They nearly won it in the end when the ball struck the post. Plus their goal was clinical.

Italy at this point in time look like the worst defending champions in history. All thanks to Lippi, the man who guided them to the trophy in 2006. Haven't people heard of quitting at the top?

That explains a lot @nostoppingthis, those guys looked very comfortable on the ball where most teams have been struggling to make a decent pass. African teams are just shooting the ball wildly, that's why the goal by SA was something to savour, almost ripped the net!
