I'm Italian and I hope Italy does well, but this has been a rough year for them.
USA still did not impress me today. They're lucky they didn't lose because of the own-goal. Their defense improved in the second half, but I still feel England has a lot of potential in this Cup.
And those Goddamn horns. Those need to be confiscated.
What match should I watch next, and why?

USA didn't impress but neither did England. Honestly, England has a few good players (e.g., Rooney, Lampard, Gerrard) but they also have a whole bunch of mediocre players. And a horrible goalie who won't get anymore playing time this tournament. 
Really though, Rooney didn't get to play deep forward which takes a lot out of his primal strength. Not such a smart move on Capello's behalf. And that Heskey fool didn't do anything good. We'll see if England will change the tactics/line-up next game.
Next game to watch, I'd say Germany vs. Australia. Why? It's Germany.

America! Fuck yeah! Coming to town to save the muthafucking day yeah!
That felt good. Horrible play by both teams but I'll take it. Another howler by an English keeper...

I wonder if Australia will be the next David to topple a Goliath. I hope the Aussies score early, it would make it a very interesting game. I'm really not interested in watching Germany spank the socceroos.

I'm actually rooting for Germany haha. Though I'll laugh even harder when they get eliminated.
Didn't see much of the other 2 games today but considering the late goals I didn't miss much.
Tomorrow 1:30pm CET though! Netherlands first match against Denmark. Hope they don't fuck it up!

Well yeah but not 4-0. Germany looked so good. They were supposed to be out of form but in true German style they came to win at the world cup.

At least I got to see a fairly exciting match. That judge's call was wrong, but it didn't make a difference anyway. I was really impressed how Germany saw a hole and took advantage of it (sorta like me 
). They did impress me and I'll watch more of them in this Cup.
Those are the %$^&%$^#$% horns I've been complaining about, LadyX. Others are complaining to FIFA, too.
What match should be watched next?
I want to see Japan.

It's those plastic horns the South Africans love so much. I heard FIFA was thinking about banning them. I agree, they are being overused. If they are used sparingly they add a nice atmosphere. But not the whole damn game.

I heard it the first game, and have since muted it. I don't need to hear their commentary anyways.

Are you talking about the red card? It was a little harsh but in the replay you see cahill kick him from behind too before the tackle. He could have broke his ankle.
Cameroon v Japan should be an interesting game. I pulled Cameroon in our work pool... I donated 30 bucks on that one.

Watch Holland!!! (Monday afternoon)
Although our best player won't probably play the first match. Hope they get their act together and show their true skills for a change.
17 straight games undefeated must say something ;)

Germany were supposed to be out of form? Maybe you should get better sources lol. I saw their friendly games prior to the tournament, they've definitely been growing as a tight unit and this easy victory over the elderly Aussies (who looked like a fricken retirement home!!) will make them even more confident.
Woe he who will encounter Germany in the knock-out phase!

What call are you referring too? All the German goals were legit. There was one German player in offside position during the first goal but since he wasn't part of the play it doesn't matter.

Japan might get crushed by Cameroon.
But my advice is you watch the Netherlands vs. Denmark. Not just because I'm Dutch but because we play attractive offensive football with players that possess a good amount of technical finesse.

I meant some of the key players in their domestic leagues. I guess I didn't make that clear.

True some of the players had shitty seasons but that also depends on the shitty teams they play for hehe.
Klose is still crap though, that header goal was a gift from the Aussie goalie.
Anypoo, I should dig out my Orange stuff!

I should've been more clear about the red card made. I was talking about the ruling against Australia, and I didn't see him kick the other guy in the pants. Anyway, I guess it didn't affect the score anyway. 
OK, I'll watch he Netherlands and Japan. I appreciate all tips.

I think rocco will watch Italy if his schedule will allow it.
Of course on Tuesday Brazil and Portugal will play their first games. And Spain on Wednesday. Plenty of enjoyable teams that actually have enough talent to make the games fun to watch.

That annoying BUZZ sound .......

from the Vancouver Sun
DURBAN, South Africa - Wasn’t the whole point of this exercise, of bringing the World Cup to this far-flung, non-traditional soccer land in the first place, that South Africa could show the rest of the planet its culture, its heritage, its soul?
So the nation could, in effect, blow its own horn?
And now they’re contemplating taking that horn away from them?
World Cup 2010 organizing chief Danny Jordaan told the BBC the trademark vuvuzelas could be banned before this World Cup is over because players and TV viewers are complaining. Too noisy, apparently.
French captain Patrice Evra has actually blamed his side’s opening-match tie against Uruguay on the metre-long plastic trumpets that cost 20 rand ($2.50 Cdn) on any street corner.
“We can’t sleep at night because of the vuvuzelas,” he whinged. “People start playing them from 6 a.m. We can’t hear one another out on the pitch because of them.”
The griping, amazingly enough, is becoming more and more widespread.
Giampaolo Pazzini of Italy, a World Cup rookie no less, has called for a ban.
“They make an incredible racket,” he moaned. “I can only imagine what it’ll be like with 30,000. My teammates told me that last year it was hellish during the Confederations Cup. It may not look like it, but a football pitch is like a marketplace full of people shouting important instructions and the referee’s whistle.
“If all this is drowned out by the sound of the vuvuzelas, then it can be a problem. We’ll have to be even more focused and concentrated.”
The caterwauling has apparently caught the ear of FIFA.
“If there are grounds to do so, yes,” Jordaan told the BBC. “We did say that if any land on the pitch in anger we will take action. We’ve tried to get some order.
“We have asked for no vuvuzelas during national anthems or stadium announcements. It’s difficult, but we’re trying to manage the best we can.
“We’ve had some broadcasters and individuals (complaining) and it’s something we are evaluating on an ongoing basis.”

I hope they do ban it- I don't want to watch a game on mute lol, but I might be forced to. I feel sorry for people that have to sit around the people blowing these dumbass horns. Must give everyone a 6-day headache.

I heard the horns are so loud people were saying it was like being in a loud club. They have to yell at the people sitting next to them to be heard.
Anyone else think it's odd seeing empty seats in the stadiums? This is the first cup I remeber seening where the stadiums aren't getting sold out.
