Italy , brazil or argentina got it .
2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa

Sorry Split, but this might actually be a close match. I have a feeling that USA will hold up their own grounds against England and it may be a close match. I wouldn't count USA out so quickly just by who they are matched up with, especially with England already losing several significant players.
true
im pumped to watch England beat Brazil
someone told me that if Brazil doesn't win the cup, theyll riot
i lol'd
I am also excited to see that match, but the problem is I most likely will be sleeping.
I think the only matches I will honestly wake up early to see are those with Italy, France, Argentina, and or, South Africa. Other than that I can watch those later since one of my uncles will most likely be recording ALL the games lol.

Whats with all the periods before and after USA? Someone seems unsure of their choice
yeah. i don't think that the US is all that great at soccer.
Oh yeah and now its
Mexico
Italy
Spain
Brazil
Argentina
sorry US. Still love you though
I really shouldn't have made this thread because now I can't wait until the first match!
Not surprised that the first match is between South Africa and Mexico. That match I can honestly say that I predicted 100%. I may or may not wake up to see that match, but that's because South Africa is playing. Other than that I would just record it and continue sleeping.
3 MORE DAYS UNTIL THE WORLD CUP!

This is the third thread like this, I already made one lol, but that was a while ago.
I'm looking forward to every match. Bosnia was my team, but they lost to Portugal. I WANT Slovenia to win, but it won't happen.
Spain I think is the team to beat, and I don't want France to win because they cheated their way there. In my bracket, I don't remember my last two teams but I think they were Spain and Brazil, with Argentina being in the top 4 as well. USA will do better than usual in this cup also. Other teams that I'm looking forward to seeing their skills are Korea and South Africa. Ivory Coast is in trouble because their star player (Drogba) was injured... thanks Japan.

I got to kick and hold the World Cup 2010 Ball last December. No joke. I feel special. My High School soccer coach has a friend who writes reviews for Adidas. Anyways we got hooked up with the 2010 world cup ball and we got to give our opinions about how good it was. It was pretty tight!!!

I'm rooting for Portugal.
The thing about England.. every World Cup, people say it's their year to win it. Every year, they fail massively. This year will be no different.

HOLLAND HOLLAND HOLLAND HOLLAND!!!!!!
1. They make the best caps, t-shirts & more stuff specially for the World Cup!
2. They have great players.
I hope the finals will be Holland vs. Germany, we need to get our vengeance ( I think, not sure if we've paid them back though)
But besides Holland... I hope to see...South Africa win.
ENGLAND IS GOING TO FAIL SO BAD!!

UPDATE
Well as of now both matches were a complete tie, which means that all 4 teams received 1 point.
Here are the scores for people who did not get the chance to watch them. I will also be doing this for every match up until the finals.
South Africa v. Mexico 1-1
Uruguay v. France 0-0
Well the only thing I can say is that I expected a lot more from South Africa. On the other hand I wanted France to actually score against Paraguay, but it seemed like both teams defensive line-ups were equal.
The next matches are on June 12, 2010 (tomorrow for most in the U.S.):
Argentina v. Nigeria 7:00 PST
Korean Republic v. Greece 4:30 PST
Enjoy fellow soccer fans

URUGUAY, URUGUAY :facewall: TheY pretty much stifled the french even playing a man down the last 9 minutes and 3 min of stoppage time, so their defense was far superior, they did an awesome job keeping the french and Henry from scoring a hand ball goal,
Hooray for URUGUAY!
Ha sorry, why I kept thinking it was Paraguay I will never know. It was Uruguay.
The match between South Africa and Mexico was alright, but it didn't keep me entertained that much at all. I was constantly surfing the web at times while the match was running.
However, the match between Uruguay (not Paraguay) and France was much better. I was really routing for France to win, but either team winning would have been alright with me. Their match kept me on my toes through the whole 90 minutes :scared:
Can't wait for the match between Korean Republic v. Greece though. I have a feeling Greece is about to pull something off, if not, I will.....:crying:
My favourite teams are Italy, New Zealand and Spain.
This year, I believe is the time for true class to shine, not show offs or stars or pace but those techinical skills that produces beautiful football. With that said, without a doubt it would be Netherlands and Spain facing off in the finals, however with that said, South Africa is much more suited to South American conditions and so Brazil facing off with Argentina would also be a big possibility.

honestly i think the first day was pretty disappointing. i expected a bit more from it.
whoever said he expects more from south africa: dont forget that they dont have the big and famous players like 90% of the other teams do. and you also shouldnt forget that they started the world cup in their own country. i think its understandable when they are nervous in the first game.
but yea i expected a bit more from all teams.
btw: you forgot to list england vs. usa tomorrow. just to let you know

Well I'm a huge Football fan (Sorry for me and 6bn ppl in the world isn't Soccer, but Football), anyway this world cup will be really competitive as you can see South Africa and Mexico ties, also France and Uruguay (France was 2nd in the last World Cup), so what to expect? many surprises...
Anyway I can't say this team will win, cause it's too hard at the beginning of the World Cup, so... teams with real chance to win this world cup
Spain, England, Brazil, Italy, Argentina
I'm waiting to watch the 1st match of C?te d'Ivoire against Portugal... in the D group 3 teams got chance to win but I think the team to beat its Brazil so... Portugal and C?te d'Ivoire will decide who gonna be in the next round
Teams to watch:
C?te d'Ivoire (Drogba factor will help them), South Africa (they are holding the World cup that's always helpful), Chile (they end 2nd in the South American Classification for the world cup), Portugal (they made a great job in the past world cup) and Netherlands they are always good team to beat
Why I'm not including Germany? They are a new generation of players starting most of them their 1st World Cup and... Michael Ballack isn't playing so... I think they will be like learning this world cup
