I like it, Underdogs are really proving themselves. But I am saddened by the lack of accuracy of African goal scorers. Africa cannot score.

Typical Africans!

the referee and luis fabiano discussing the handball(s)leading to the second goal and having a good laugh over it. probably something like ( ref:i saw u controlling the ball twice with your arm before scoring. fabiano: haki ya mungu it was the chest not arm. ref: he he not to worry. after all they are just bloody africans, the goal will stand.) if this was for example the england team there would have been a big hullabaloo about the fabiano's hands of god for the next century.

It the clamp down by FIFA on hard tackles, pushing and shoving ............
Have you seen the number of free kicks being dished out ............
I think their reasons are noble.......
protect million dollar players from injury and therefore protect the clubs investment.........
and they are trying to increase the set plays and therefore increase the goals ...............
that is eventually what football is about goals goals goals .........

The teams havn't utilised the set plays as much as they should have .......
Team come with aim of holding out to a stronger team with very little attacking eg Japan vs cameroon, Newzealand Vs italy .......
The games were only being played in one half ............
I think the group stages should also be do or die ...............
that will make it more interestiing and stop this boring games...............
