The Official FIFA World Cup 2010 discussion thread

I watched the French game for the first half hour. Then I woke up two hours later,was somehow sleeping on the floor.

Today's matches:

Capacity: 42.486
 Referee  Michael HESTER (NZL)
 
Argentina - Nigeria @ 4:00pm -  Ellis Park Stadium - Johannesburg
Capacity: 55,686
Referee  Wolfgang STARK (GER)

England - USA @ 8:30pm -  Rustenburg  - Royal Bafokeng Stadium
Capacity: 38,646
Referee  Carlos SIMON (BRA) 
 
I plan on watching them all :)
 

Three Lions on my shirt!

Argentina - Nigeria is going to be a cracker, I have a feeling.
 
Also I really hope Capello finds a way to give Rooney the support he needs, without it becoming a one man show, we need to create more chances per game, simple as that.

The French were AWFUL.

I'm currently watching a documantary about the South African World Cup. Some really sad stuff about how much they've spent on building stadiums and doing other stuff instead of focusing on health care and schools
 
Anyway, let's hope today's matched are more exciting

Hell I'll probably watch all 3 matches today.
 
I expect to see more conservative and careful play.Although tonight's matches could be pretty badass.

At least we'll see some Asian chick in the Korea match :P
 
If the producer is any good.. Also saluting the national anthem is a little overkill in my book.

FIFA is monitoring Youtube and taking down the goal videos, so I don't know how long they will be up.

2 - 0 
Wow Greece made that way too easy for Korea. Looks like they're out of the tournament.

Match is over! 2-0 for South Korea. The first win at this World Cup.
 
Here are the final stats:

Let's see some Argentinian football! (and Nigerian )

Come on Nigeria!

Aw the Argentinian team is just sex.That's with Aguerro on the bench too!
 
Messi,Higuain,Tevez,Di Maria.
 
Love Heinze from his Man Utd days.

South Korea were great...and I've never been a fan of Greece's tactics in recent times

The vuvuzelas are extremely irritating. Though i hate it, full marks to the people who kept at it for the entirety of a match. Did i mention that the vuvuzelas are extremely irritating?

Kick off!

Dude, ESPN is playing this in full 5.1, but it's a pain in the ass because of that stupid fucking horn the crowd keeps playing.  
 
My money is on Argentina.

WHAT A FUCKING EXCITING GAME!

lol gutiérrez at right back! that should be interesting!

Huge chacne to Higuain. Should have been 1-0!

Already two shots for Agentina.  :\
 
EDIT:  Goal bitches.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Heinze scores!

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!

Best match so far already!

god african defending has been horrific in these two games

I'm loving watching WC with GB :)
