TOPIC:

westaussieguy: agree-- I am no fan of the Germans, as everybody on here knows, but for the SBS commentators to claim, that they played badly, was just stretching the truth a wee bit; their bias towards so-called Asian football is simply ridiculous.

The Germans lacked two things: a really class striker; and a midefielder of the ilk of Michael Ballack, whom would have literally run through the centre of that Korean defence drawing free kicks or penalties. Ozil, for example, has never tackelled an opposition player in his life.

Yes I agree Bazza. Some of the matches are on at a shitty time for sure.
The England - Belgium match starts at 0200. I see England have been given a 36% chance of a Win. Whilst Belgium are at a 32% chance with a draw at 32%.

Wow the last time Germany got eliminated in the preliminary rounds was 1938.That game was played in Paris and the fans booed the Germans all game.The Fura was getting ready for war.
Just heard if England beats Belgium there next game might be Brazil.
Well done to South Korea.Hope you win a final and progress. Probably the best win in any SK sporting match.

Some good match ups developing in the round of 16. This is when I am going to need lots of coffee to stay awake at work
