The match is over, and something funny:
The 8 from North Korea scored at 86mins or so, they had a chance to at least even the scores but instead of grabbing the ball and returning to the midfield the guy just went running like halfway the field to greet some guy on the bench :p


disrespecting superiors probably gets you killed faster than loosing football matches :p

To be fair, a 2-1 defeat against Brazil isn't that bad a score for NK. Maybe we should threaten to execute the England team if they don't qualify. :p

Of course it's a good score for North Korea. That's why I feel disappointed with Brazil. It's as much as Brazil's defeat as much it's Korea's merit. I admit that their defense was rock-solid, but that goal they scored to Brazil came somewhat suddenly. I'm not sure that this Brazilian defense will be sufficient against a more offense-oriented team.

Don't forget that a more offense-oriented team will be in greater trouble against the Brazilian attackers.

Indeed I did, it screwed up my bet that Spain scores 9 points in the group stage. :mad:

Bro was a bit off there :P Round 3 will definitely be interesting. What are your tips for the night game? I'll go with the "surprising" Mexican victory.

And in the one before, and before against China and before against Tunisia... Domenech essentially ruined this team, people.

They'll play tomorrow (according to GMT +2, SA standard time).

No, we tied England 1-1 in our only match so far.  If we don't advance out of group I'll be surprised.

Given that you drew 1-1 with the UK not only are you still in it, depending on how the other two games go you have a fair chance of winning the group.

I'm shocked, since soccer is not our thing at all, and I'm pretty sure we're going to be knocked out after our second game.

On the other hand, if the world were to play football with us (yes, football :P), we'd demolish everyone with all our 300 pound linebackers from Alabama and Louisiana.

Too bad Mexi & Uruguay no longer have much incentive to take risks in their final game...
