I personally didn't find the first half boring, but this second half has been wildly entertaining. For American purposes, I'd still rather Ghana not win... but forgetting them, would be awesome if Ghana could find a way.
Bollocks.

ِAfricans are generating some fun though apart from Nigeria and Algeria.... even the Cameroon games were entertaining despite they are a bunch of suckers... but Asian teams games have been really terrible so far, especially Iran and Japan.DiM wrote:Pirlo wrote:Remove Asia teams and this world cup would be totally perfect!
then it wouldn't be world cup
however it would be fun to have a europe vs south america cup.

Basters did it again...
Not to mention the goal for Nigeria was scored after a foul...
Its more and more obvious that World Cup Judges are not capable to do the job they are payed for.

I would suggest that some of them are doing exactly what they're getting paid for. Cameroon - out. Algeria - almost out. Ghana - almost out. Ivory Coast - best players brother died before a runner up decider. That leaves Nigeria as the possible only hope for a last 16 spot - fifa farce.GoranZ wrote:Basters did it again...

No way Bosnia deserved to lose that match, even though they did play like a shadow team of what I've seen in the past few years. BTW there was no foul in the run up to the Nigeria goal.

Shame Bosnia didn't score on those late chances,
a draw would have been a fitting end.

Mueller's (German player) face looked bad. When two players saw him they quickly motioned to the bench for medical, my concern is it looked like a ruptured right eye. Let's hope he didn't hurt his eye. Just awful injury.

I still like Germany for champion.
Ghana played very well, it was a great match and though Germany looked fragile at defense at times, lets remember that Kedhira is recovering form little by little and should be better as the tournament advances. And it's likely they won't have to face another team with that speed, only maybe Robben will be similarly dangerous if Holland is winning.
I'm in love with the way they play, and some analysts want to credit this to the influence of Guardiola in Bayern but the truth is they were playing like this before Pep was Bayern's coach.
I'd like to see Schwansteiger starting though, not sure if for this Kedhira or Ozil should be sacrificed. I don't think Kroos will be a sub. I remember disliking Muller when he started playing for Germany but now along with Schwansteiger is my favorite German players.

And what game it was! That second half was one of the best second halves so far, right up there with Spain-Holland's second half, only this one was even, not a blow out.Gilligan wrote:group F is the worst group, i have no hopes for good games in that group. especially after Iran/Nigeria.DiM wrote:go iran go.
unfortunately these are the games i can watch, and miss games like spain/chile and US/Ghana.
at least we have Germany/Ghana to look forward to today

Yep, go to instant replay, join the computer age, use technology, etc, get some subjective human rulings out and this will improve the game.Sackett58 wrote:Oh hell.

Seems like all the other sports use computer technology to get the correct call. An umpire should be in a viewing booth to review all goals and offsides that take away a goal. Coaches should be able to throw a red flag to challenge one call per half.

Agreed, review in a booth linked to the head official on the field could be an improvement. Maybe even review fouls that draw red cards too, so no divers get other players kicked out of matches.universalchiro wrote:An umpire should be in a viewing booth to review all goals and offsides that take away a goal.

I like the German style of play as well.

Nobody can accuse the Algerians of being boring. 3-0 in the first half. Granted, they're playing Korea, but still. You have to beat whoever is in front of you, and that's exactly what they're doing today.
