Typical.

But I do have to admit I do somewhat agree with this.

If Brazil loses early, it will be Italy for me because I like Italy a lot. And I made a good Italian friend out there =p.
Actually, I'm not going to be very disappointed if Brazil or Italy lose or something. I just love watching the matches. But though I love football, I don't feel as strongly towards watching it as some other sports because my country is not very good at it. It is not terribly important when you are not praying for some side to win.

I'll probably watch a match. Dunno which. Plus I don't have a favourite.


Also you just named all the Americans on this forum. America and Canada are not very concerned about soccer (or, er, football).

Ask Gladstone. He watches I think.

I think Gladstone might possibly be watching England matches.
I saw three matches so far. South Africa vs. Mexico, South Korea vs. Greece and Nigeria vs. Argentina. The other matches started late and hence I couldn't see them.

I will, I have to support Spain. Partly because I've supported them forever and also because Maradona said he'll run naked down the streets of Buenos Aires if Argentina win.

And, Algerian goalkeeper follows suit. It wasn't so bad as the England goalie's mistake (BTW, I wish they would stop blaming him. Anyone can make mistakes), but one which could have easily been saved as it was a very slow shot and he was well positioned. Some say it could be the new soccer ball used; the Jabulani model developed by Adidas as the goalie's are not used to it.
And =D

lol most of the matches are very conveniently scheduled at the times I work/travel to work so i doubt I'll be watching much to comment on.

[Edit:

Also, a joke, from my mother:

This is Jesús Navas:



When I introducing my mom to this member of the greatest team on earth, she asked me if he was the goalie because "Jesus saves." :P
