Disappoining first game for The Socceroos. Okay to be honest I didn't have high hopes of a win, but uncertainly was not expecting the 4-0 thrashing we were handed by Germany. Let's do better next game boys!! As for England the goal the US scored was practically an own goal by the keeper I have no idea how that even went in.

Messi was unlucky to have his fantastic attempts at goal saved by The Nigerian goalkeeper, but the single goal of that match was a cracker of a goal. May have been from a set piece but a beautifully executed one.

I do have to say though so far the matches have been substandard when compared to Germany 2006. Tonight's schedule of matches looks promising especially The Netherlands vs Denmark and also Italy vs Paraguay!! I may just cheer for Paraguay though definitely still annoyed at how we lost the last time.
