I'm kind of amazed there hasn't been a World Cup thread yet. I've watched at least a half each day since it started. It's been a rather interesting cup so far I think.
US is grossly inconsistent, but when they are on they are dynamite. That come back tie [should have been a win] was spectacular. Do or die tomorrow, and I think they can pull it off.
England is still jet-lagged I think. They need to pull out all the stops tomorrow. I'd really like to see the US and England advance from Group C.
Germany was stunning in their first game, then fell apart for the second. I think they are the only team more inconsistent than the US.
The Netherlands are bloody unstoppable in Group E. I'd like to see them and Denmark advance. I watched most of the Denmark vs. Cameroon game and though they had a decent team. I don't think they go past the opening in the tournament, but you never know.
I can't believe Brazil was almost stunned by N Korea, only to have N Korea blasted to pieces by Portugal. I turned that game off at 4-nil because Portugal was just unstoppable at that point. Group G really is the group of death this year. Brazil v Portugal has the makings of an epic match.
And poor France... self destructed. That has to be the biggest shock of it all.
I was happy to see the African teams making a decent show this year. I don't think any of them will advance though, which is a little sad considering the local. I suppose Ghana has a chance, but that depends on which German team shows up and how Australia v Slovakia turns out.
