This is the worst international football competition since Euro '96. Goddamn.
Firstly, the mixture of sintetic and real grass makes a hard surface to play on, and of course a ball like Jubalani bounces far more like it did in the friendlies a month ago. Every team that plays at 13.30 down in South Africa is also playing in killer circumstances, like Slovakia and New Zealand today, when it was really cold and them motherfucking vuvuzelas don't stop..... it's hard to play good and with all you got, I totally understand the players...
And there were a lot of hard and ultimately boring games, S. Korea and Germany are the only ones that really stepped on the ball on did their thing. Slovenia was a catastrophe when attacking, we still have one of the finest defences, so I'm hoping we don't lose to the US, who are really some fast motherfuckers, might I add. Altho everybody criticize Slovenia for the snooze-fest, what about USA, France, Uruguay, Denmark [-this one being the biggest dissappointment thus far]??? But of course, the first games are always boring for viewers...everybody need to play to win in the second round...
