only watched the first 5, has it been entertaining? Accouncer said it was one of the best 45 of the world cup so far.

I wouldn't expect you haters to acknowledge it but that video I posted was high quality, he CLEARLY gets stepped on from behind. I'll leave it at that, you guys just have it enblazed in your minds because of the "Italian reputation" when in fact De Rossi is one of the more honest guys in football......he once told a ref he used his hand on a goal.

BTW "Derk".......I'll bring up what ever I want, you don't like it......too fucking bad!

bring up whatever you want, you still look retarded for trying to beat a dead horse lol

Yeah, very up and down. Eto'o hit the post. Cameroon has had some other looks, Denmark not as many, but still great chances. The midfield has been wide open for whichever team has the ball at the time.

2-1 Denmark take the lead. Much more open game than I was expecting. A lot of great chances for both teams.

I've never seen a team with so many good chances and only get 1 goal out of it!

Cameroon is out. Disappointing second round so far for the African fans. Denmark finished their chances and Cameroon didint, despite having more.

Cameroon could have had a great day, but they didn't capitalize on anything. I expected a better showing from them in the World Cup, hopefully they don't just lie down in their last match.

Well, surprised by the score, but not by the outcome. Huge match between Denmark and Japan now. Japan gets through with a draw, and I'm not sure the Danes have the attacking power to break through what will probably be an all-out defensive effort.

Brazil and Ivory Coast tomorrow afternoon. Can't wait for that one.

I missed the first half of the Italy game today, but the announcer said the PK for Italy was because Italy dove once again.

It was kind of a questionable penalty, but not a total dive. Their feet did get entangled. Italy pretty much controlled the first half. I'd be very surprised if they don't end up winning this.

In other news, the disaster that is the French squad has apparently refused to train.

I have to admit I was rooting for New Zealand, solely because they were such an underdog. Italy's next game isn't exactly easy either. It would be crazy is Italy didn't make it out of the group.

Italy can tie again and make it out though. Paraguay will more than likely dispose of New Zealand. That leaves:

Paraguay - 7
Italy - 3
New Zealand - 2
Slovakia - 2

Even if Italy ties and so does NZ and Paraguay you would have:

Paraguay - 5
Italy - 3
NZ - 3
Slovakia - 2

The goal differential for each would be 0. The goals scored as it is now is Italy 2 vs NZ 2. So whoever had the biggest tie would advance. If thats the same, it would go to a draw (I think). I did all that off the top of my head without looking anything up at all.

Italy has no goal scorers they left them all at home. Leaving off players like Rossi, Totti, Balotelli, Aquilani, cassano, and toni. Leaving youth off their squad was a huge mistake. Their teams average age is the forth oldest in the world cup. Two of the three ahead of them are England who is also looking terriable and Australia who doesnt really have many options.
