没有大舅的日子:第476天

A Long Awaited Game...

I was happy to know when Germany and England are qualified for the top 16. But when I found out that they're battling each other, it is going to be a 'termination' game...
I'm a supporter of both countries. I don't know which country I'll be supporting (the true is I'm keen to Germans).
Last night proved to be a great game... Probably because Klose was back in the game! And yes, he was the 'knight' that won the 'war'... Goalkeeper James of England didn't have a chance to stop it. Next up, Podolski was in action. Making Germany as the lead by 2-0. England did fought back (still, it's not strong). Matt Upson knocked the ball into England's goal, making them near to the German by 2-1. England almost/nearly had a chance to equalise the points. Lampard's goal went into goal line until German goalkeeper caught the ball. It means this goal is null...
The story has not done yet... That Klose-Podolski and Lampard's near score was on the 1st half. At the 2nd half, youngster Mueller scored twice at the 67th and 70th minute, ending England's dream of winning the World Cup. Kudos to the young players from Germany! Most of us would think, without Ballack, Germany's going nowhere. However, it's a big mistake to think like that. They are going to bring their country to the finals.
We won't be seeing the England's star players 4 years from now. I felt sad for the England team and this has left a regretting memory for them.

On the other game, Argentina won 3-1 over Mexico with 2 goals from Tevez and one from Higuain. As usual, Messi didn't stand a chance to score. Work harder...!

The next match is the one that I wouldn't want to see... Germany vs. Argentina...

Out of the game...

It was a devastating news to hear Nicolas Anelka was kicked out from the France team due to a news that was leaked, saying that Anelka was insulting coach Domenech. Sad news... Everyone will be missing Anelka. France are definately are going back this week...
What really happened? According to French captain Evra, there is a 'traitor' that leaked this news to the media... Who's the suspect?

On the other news, I can't really believe that Portugal enjoyed a magnificent victory against North Korea, winning 7-0. Finally, 'hero' of the Portugal team scored a point...

Hits, Misses and Failures at the 2010 FIFA World Cup...

I never thought this year's World Cup would be so... dramatic? Interesting? Out of prediction? Whatever...

Argentina: The won 1-0 over Nigeria. I'm happy for them but still not satisfied... All the shots that Messi made, scored none... By right, it should be 4-0.

England: I didn't see Steven Gerrard coming from behind at the 4th minute. What made me furious about this match was that Robert Green let the ball slipped through his hands and went straight in, making them to have a draw with US. To Capello, change your goalkeeper or pack your bags...

Germany: Yeah! Podolski and Klose are the heroes! It was them that score 2 goals on the 1st half. And youngster Mueller and Cacau made Germany a true champion on the 2nd half. Can Klose get the Golden Boot again?

Japan: I didn't put Japan on the prediction. Don't underestimate them.

World Cup 2010...

Yeah! It will be starting on 11th, this Friday...

Who will win? No one knows...
Still, we have to predict which are the countries that have big chances...

1. Italy (again?)
2. Germany (yeah, they SHOULD win. 4 years ago they were the bridesmaid)
3. Argentina (they have Messi on the team, big chance...)
4. England (no David Beckham, chances dropped...)
5. Portugal (can Cristiano Ronaldo make it?)
6. Spain

Maybe all the 6 teams above will not make it into the top 16. Just maybe...!!!
