Match # 6
Algeria – Slovenia: 0-1 Well then, a truly boring game with none of the usual football excitement, not even a couple of chances to make an impact. The Slovenian goal was a joke and the Algerian goalkeeper Gaouaoui did a Green, but a touch worse. He just perfected the Green, that from now on might be called a Gaouaoui instead. And Algeria’s Ghezzal’s hand of god try failed miserably – what the hell was he thinking? Atleast he’ll have the time …

Prematch report: Algeria – Slovenia
From correspondent: Nick Leeson, Dubai This is a less dramatized fixture then the evenings later fixtures. Algeria had to play a play off game against Egypt to get to the World Cup as they finished their qualifiying group with the same points and goal difference, with many believing the wrong team made it to the world cup. However, Algeria with Bougherra in defence and tricky Belhadj and Karim Ziani as offensive treats it could be …
Match # 5
England – USA: 1-1 A game between David and Goliath, England being one of the worlds best teams also historically seen, and USA, well what does one say? People who play football are the ones who weren’t big enough for American Football. It’s a secondary sport… The game started out beautifully with a goal from Gerrard after 4 minutes. And then, England kept on playing the socks of the Americans, although not as well as …
Match # 4
Syd Korea/ Korean Republic vs Grekland/Greece: 2-0 Syd Korea – Grekland. Ja, vad säger man om Grekland som verkligen har dykt efter EM storheten och Syd Korea som verkligen inte har gjort sig något namn i fotbollsvärlden. Dock blev jag trevligt överaskad av ett ganska trevlig fotboll från Syd Korea och de gör 2 mål, kanske inte världsnyggast men vad gör det… Korean Republic vs Greece. What does one say about Greece, whom have just …
Match # 3
Argentina – Nigeria: 1-0 Argentina – Nigeria, ja vad ska man säga. En vad som kunde vara en spännande match, Argentina ett lag som alltid är roligt att titta på och Nigeria som ibland kan förvåna – men tyvärr var det väl inte så mycket att hurra för… Förutom ett vackert mål Heinze’s då…. Argentina vs Nigeria, well what does one say… What could have been a really exciting game, with two seriosly enjoyable and …
Match # 2
Uruguay – Frankrike/France: 0-0 Match # 2 mellan Uruguay och Frankrike var ingen höjdare, ganska långsam och trist match. Synd eftersom Frankrike brukar spela en ganska rolig fotboll. Synd bara att Bartes (målvakt) har slutat – han var en målvaktsgud! 😉 Hoppas på bättre matcher idag… The World Cups second game, between Uruguay and France wasn’t very special, slow and boring infact. It’s too bad since France usually plays a fun football. To bad Bartes …
Match # 1
Syd Afrika/South Africa – Mexiko/Mexico: 1-1 Första matchen avklarad, en helt ok match dock inte så mycket att hurra för. Men Tshabalalas (Syd Afrika) mål var väldigt snyggt (video)! Slutade 1-1, och jag tippade rätt =) The first game just finnished, and to be truthful the game wasn’t anything special. Although Tshabalala’s (South Africa) goal was very nice (video). The game ended 1-1 and I bet correctly =). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Karoleen – Fotograf © Copyright – …
