The International Friendly Match between USA and Argentina has been exciting, they are playing for real, not just an exhibition game.

Let be guess, they didn't tell the Brits, but the winner get the Falklands.

No, the loser.

Manchester City are set to discuss Mario Balotelli's disciplinary issues after the striker was reportedly caught throwing darts from a first floor window.

I realize now that the whole World Cup 2010 thread has been swallowed into the Great Languish Rift; darn, one of the top ten threads for number of views and number of replies!

We could start it again.

My predicitons:

I think England's going to do really well. They start of against the USA, pah!; Robbie Green will shut them out surely. And from there on in surely it's a cinch.
France have a good team this year too. Watch out for them.
I think the Spanish are over rated; they should get past the first round but then they'll choke as usual.

Germany's still in transition, Mueller's really inexperienced and can't understand why he's in the squad. Expect Ballack to start.

Everybody will love those horns.

I especially like their enthusiasm and chemistry off the field.

[Maladict]

Home advantage will see the African teams go far this time.

South american teams will underperform, as always, with the usual notable exception of Argentina & Brazil.

Expect Messi to be the tournament's MVP.

Italy will easily pass their group stage, the easiest of all groups bar none.

Yeah, Maradonna can really get the best out of Messi, certainly the one to watch.

We could have walked away with a draw at least, if we had fielded a defense.

Too bad, at least it sounds like a fun game.

Can't say that about the Danish game... I'm calling it now, congratulations to Norway and Portugal with their qualifications.
