fussball

I'm wondering...does the england win(1-0) against paraguay justify the singng in the streets?? I'd say HELL NO! What was that?? Fuck! It was 90 minutes of not- so -awesome tackling and shot on goals, misses, a fluke OG, offsides...booring, d-r-a-g.
A win is a win no matter what and those 3 points do count. But their overall performance was not enough to convince me that this is the team that is so hyped up and out to play the WC finals. I bet alot of other fans lost their confidence after that opening match. I mean...One goal !! and that too an own goal headed in by the opponent into his own net. Classic! Gamarra must be banging his head in spite of what he did! So, basically the bottomline is: England should really gear up and put in more energy and creativity for a better performance in the next matches. And we all know the Brits are obsessed with the weather but they should not blame their shitty performance on 30 degress of german heat. Chances are they will be playing alot of matches in the mid afternoon sun. Go England!
The argentina:civ(2:1) match was definately better, although I didn't watch this one. So where was me at 4am JPT during the kick off and the following 90 mintues?? Glued to my PC screen "reading" the Live text of the match on BBC which refreshes automatically every 2 minutes. By the end of it, my eyes were sore, but the WC is gaining momentum and thats exciting. Now into the third day...the lineup couldn't get more thrilling.Will be watching Australia vs Japan next on monday.
"May the best team win".
PS- *Purrrfectto* timing for fussball fever... just when I have a WEEK to power type 30 pages for my paper!! Fcuk!
