Japan have just scored the best two freekicks of the world cuo so far. Shoving a great big knife in the heart of the Danes chances of reaching the 2nd round. Fucking fantastic, this world cup is proving to be a revelation.
Slovakia gave Italy a tonking, even though it was a bit harem scarem at the end.
Van persie's just nutmegged the Cameroon keeper to score hollands first. They look a good bet to reach the semi's. Haven't been tested yet and winning comfortably, growing in confidence and robben hasn't played a game yet.
Back to Italy, hopefully this is provokes a changing of the guard for them, lippi showed too much faith in the old guard, and they played like Italy of old, cagey, defensive, willing to take the one nil. Wonder whose going to take on the poisoned chalice of taking them onto the euros.
Also all praise to japan for beating Cameroon and looking the better side against Denmark and being rewarded with two goals.
Topsy turvy world cup, smaller nations coming to the fore, last times finalists finishing last in their groups, god don't you just love football.
Ps I'm hoping brazil put the hammer into Portugal tomorrow, giving the ivory coast some hope of qualifying. Ghana can't be the only African nation to fly the flag.
