What a crap game so far. Australia scoring first would improve it.

Agreed. It was an underwhelming game. We were all over the place. Lost our formations and structure but too hesitant to push for more.

But there were a few Oscar worthy performances!

Off to a great start! Another great set of matches tomorrow. My brother-in-law is pumped for Mexico v Germany!

Am I the only one who gets frustrated with Messi, I think he should be better in the World Cup and Argentina would win more if he performed to his level of status

he plays far better for Barca

Most definitely, but he doesn't shine in the big stage and Barca has a lot of talent, taking pressure off of him.

Its often the case....the league team will have many good players, whereas the national team might only have one or two...take Wales and Gareth Bale...

Messi playing sloppy? Sometimes these guys will play for money but not for pride. See that all the time in the nfl.

amazing weekend - Mexico beat Germany, Brazil held by Switzerland.

Big one for us Brits tonight!!

THE WORD "soccer" is simply a diminutive of association, as in As-soc-iation Football, with "er" added. It was, apparently, all the rage among public schoolboys in the mid to late nineteenth century to bung "er" on the end of a butchered word.

hence Rugger for rugby....

I didn't know that either, thanks

I didn't know that either, thanks
