Great World Cup But

There is no doubt in my mind that this World Cup has been exciting and absorbing. I had a hard time waiting for the Quater Finals to start simply because I have become addicted to the game. My only complain is with the level of officiating.
I feel the referees have taken too much of a role in this World Cup and have unduly influnced games with their decisions.
For example, four red cards and sixteen yellow cards were shown by the referee in the second round tie between Holland and Portugal.
I understand the determination of FIFA to root out rough play and I support them. But the game is about players not referees and fifa should not forget that.

World Cup Heats Up

Ghana made Africa proud with their 2 nil victory over Czech Republic.
Spain and Argentina are looking very strong and will be hard to be beat.
But what is happening to France? Their play has been very disappointing.
Moving on, I think Germany and England will be in the quater final.

World Cup Excitement

The opening matches of the World Cup have been very exciting. I have been particularly impressed with the long range shooting of Germany.
Argentina have also impressed me with their clinical finishing. Arjen Robben has played phenomenally for Holland.
Trinidad and Tobago have pleasantly surprised me with their discipline which helped them to avoid defeat in their match with Sweden.
I hope it continues to be as exciting as it has been.

World Cup First Round

There are some teams that will not make it to the second round of the World Cup. These teams include Trinidad and Tobago, and Angola.
There are some teams that will make it to the second round. These teams are Brazil, Germany, England and Portugal.
With all the other teams, anything can happen. There are a lot of strong teams that may not qualify to the second round due to the toughness of their groups.
Let's keep our fingers crossed.
