Tryst .. but Australia has some awesome fans!  they were def present


Their fans could have been asleep and they still would have been "awesome" compared to the performance of their team. The sand on Australia's beaches could have done betterLaughing

I think England is in with a big chance.

I like the U.S.A.'s style of play, and hope they do well.

The support for South Africa here is tremendous. The whole country is buzzing - flags on cars, everyone wearing SA soccer shirts etc... I am not the flag-waving type, but it's good for our country.


england little chance

seriously? brazil and portugal out of group g? ivory coast will slaughter portugal

england should have beaten usa yesterday at least 3-0... green made an unforgivable blunder when dempsey shot it right at him.


That's quite English.

If goalkeeper do something similar to avoid goals that's not English selection

Is Ivory Coast that good? The do call that group the "group of death". I was wondering why as I thought Brazil and Portugal a lock.

I hate this country. It has beautiful landscapes, wonderful rivers and lakes, and amazing seasons. The wild life is astonishing. Some people are quite lovely. The government sucks, most of the people suck, and it's a plague on the world. That's my tiny opinion on the matter

 


Shut up. The USA is the greatest country in world history and this is off topic. It is people like you that make me furious.

I know I'm outnumbered here, but I am not a fan of the world cup...anything that causes the neighbors drunken cheers to wake me up at 4am makes me grumpy.

I haven't seen England, Italy, or Brazil play yet but I'm going for Germany for now.  The fact that England tied with the US team is a bad sign for them... England was smooth when they had Lineker, he was awesome!

...but I'd love to see an African team win the cup on African soil, how amazing would  that be!!


Germany is recognized for rolling over small teams. we'll see

I was at the Durban stadium's fan park last night for the Aus/Ger game and the atmosphere was brilliant! Can anyone tell me how to download a picture here from my docs or my pictures? If i click Insert/edit image it just takes me to chess.com... not sure how to... i got it on to "my photos" but that's all.

Thanks LisaV, part of my problem was that I was in Google Chrome. I logged in using Internet Explorer and all the correct windows come up now, the only problem is it shows:

Error: The name of the file is invalid.

I had selected the pic from my documents - and i tried naming the file, but still doesn't want to work Embarassed.

The number of Aussies there last night was phenomenal - flooding the streets!

Don't worry, I will figure it out eventually. I plan to take my bigger camera later this week - there is Spain/Switz on Wednesday, and Holland/Japan on Saturday - watch this space! Or view them on my photo album.

P.S. I plugged my ears!! protection from the nuisance paaarping vuvuzelas!

looking for three great matches tonight, holland, japan and Italy!
