S. Africa-Denmark:1-1

Was that official ridiculous or what? Well that's what happens when the idiotic FIFA officials open their mouths. Later that day they were quick to point out to the officials to NOT take their words so seriously (did not meant to say really that they wanted more red cards). This is becoming really ridiculous. S. Africa proved that they belong in the WC. They outplayed the Danes which other than the two magical Laudrup brothers don't have much anyway. We probably saw the rocket shot of that S. African player in the last minute hit the goalpost of an astonisched Schmeichel. S. Africa still alive in this group. But France (without Zidane) and Denmark might workout a tie for both to advance? It should be a quiet game:)

Help me out guys post something!

Nigeria-Bulgaria:1-0

Whoever missed this game missed one of the most enjoyable games of the tournament so far. No team wanted to defend, an up and down attacking game. It is a miracle it ended up ONLY 1-0. Nigeria won easily but never finished off the thug looking Bulgarians. It is clearly a joy to watch the Nigerians play. But their defense always leaves big holes and for the Bulgarians to not even score one goal shows that this team is way over the hill, they clearly need some new blood. Later today Spain must beat Paraguay, they have no choice. And then they probably need to beat the Bulgarians too. Spain is in a tough spot, it will be interesting to see how they respond.
