2-2 at end of regulation. Shootout was celebs only.

Diego Maradonna is his name Wolfy.

Ferdinand is a big blow, looks like they've brought in Dawson to replace him.

Just saw this post

I've met Diego, had dinner with him and juggle the ball around when I was maybe 10/11, my soccer coach played on Boca Juniors with him when they were younger and were good friends.

You lucky sob, people would do unholy things to play kick a ball with Maradonna.

That is pretty innovative.

What's the time difference like for you guys during the world cup ? We get the games during the afternoon/dinner time.

Alright, I've got a 7 hour time difference from Cape Town, SA. I live in Iowa which is Central standard, meaning once again, just like Euro 08, Ill miss most of the games due to work =(
FML, i need a dvr

I am sure ESPN will replay the games ? Good thing the England game is a Saturday.

Good thing they have some good games on during the weekend(for me atleast). I share the same time zone as you so I feel your pain.

Ya, and I gotta work 8-5...

Tomorrows matches

South Africa 0 - Mexico 2

Uruguay 1 - France 1

Make you're picks, we should keep track it would be kinda cool, eh?

South Africa 1 - Mexico 1

Uruguay 1 - France 2

South Africa 1 - Mexico 2
Uruguay 1 - France 1

Mexico -2
South Africa - 0

France - 2
Uraguay - 1

I'm thinking homefield will at least get SA a draw, 1-1 or 0-0 can't decide, Mexico doesn't usually show well in the Cup or outside Mexico.

I've been reading that South Africa is absolutely horrible though

Mexico wins 2-1
France wins 1-0

my predictions

The home team has never lost an opener neither, still though, I have to go with Mexico
