We beat Australia 4-0. Awesome game, besides a shaky beginning, where
the Aussies actually had a good chance to score. The rest of the game,
Germany dominated and the four goals where beautiful executed.
Australia had a bad day and after the red card, unreasonable in my opinion,
they had no chance. Heck, we should have score 2,3 more goals.
My guess is, it won't be as easy against the other members of the group, but
with that kind of performance, Germany doesn't have to fear anybody.
Other thoughts on the World Cup so far:
The noise of the Vuvuzelas is annoying. Watching a game is like listening to
bee swarms zipping around the stadium. It overpowers any other noise that
would come from the fans like drums, chanting, cheering. There is basically
no atmosphere. I know, its suppose to be part of the South African culture,
but couldn't they pick something that wouldn't drive the rest of the world nuts?
The terrible mistake of England's keeper against the US overshadows the fact
that England didn't play that well. It seems like every World Cup, everybody
and their English cousin think that the team should win it, because they have
such a pool of talented players. If they keep playing like this, they won't get
that far. I think they are WAY overrated.
Games are decided by stupid mistakes: England ties with the US based on a
goalie error. Slovenia wins on a goalie error. Serbia looses because they
couldn't keep the hands off the ball.
I am looking forward to watch more football.
