World Cup anybody?

[HuffyTheSlayer 22]

2-1 to Australia in the 89th minute! Go Socceroos!

In our household, it is a crime to call it Soccer. The terms are Football and American Football.

In conversations with USC's I prefer to call it "the real football, ya know the game where they actually play the ball with the feet all the time"

[HuffyTheSlayer 22]

3-1 now.

me too..........I always say that too, soccer is such a stupid name, that does not describe the beautiful game at all

turned on the match in the 80th minute and wow what an awesome final 10 minutes!!!

Go Australia... Go Harry Kewell!!!!!!!!!! Liverpool forever!

[Eveline 9]

WOW, that game was awesome. I didn't know how much I actually missed soccer until I saw this game just now (well, and the game Germany - Serbia Montenegro the other day). AWESOME. The best thing is, I will be going to Germany tomorrow and it's gonna be a great time (arrival is MUNICH and people there are just crazy about soccer umm football).

no surprises here. americans are terribly overrated

[Nikita2Charles 32]

Hmm!!

I expected a better fight from Zico's japan team, I can say i am impressed by the Aussie team. So many surprises who will go to Round 16 is a tough guess right now with so many teams playing well in their opening match.

Yikes!!! I am rooting for underdog Trinidad, but I was hoping US would at least get a tie. I think it will end in a tie.

[Trompe le Monde 1,107]

Well, only 30 minutes have passed so it ain't over yet -- I want the US to do well again simply because it would piss so many people off.

People have been complaining about the announcing -- totally agree, but nearly as bad as the GRAPHICS. How many times has play been obscured by some fancy map or photo? Who cares what the capital of the country is! Also that bar across the top of the screen that isn't quite at the top is driving me spare -- especially when it says "FIFA World CUP" -- I KNOW IT'S THE FIFA WORLD CUP! I've been watching for the past 3 days. I think I'm going to email them.
