    Serbia 1-1 Austrailia

    Japan are unlucky to be behind.

    Honduras are absolutely terrible.Kildare County would beat them handy.

    Belgium have themselves to blame.

    Serbia-Australia 1-1 FT :(

    What a wasted chance to get 3 points in first game....

    We were attacking 90 mins and trying to brake australian defence,we did it once with +million missed chances and they scored from onlyone chance they made in whole game....
    Cant believe it....
    Now we can hope to make it up in next 2 games and that wont be easy at all

    Messi and Aguero... Both in the same team... Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....


    I love that Messi is much less selfish now too, his passing is actually excellent. Ivory Coast look quite good too... Can't see Serbia or Australia getting through unfortunately.

    1-0 Messi, nice finish, probably offside. Don't know why he's wearing the no. 15 jersey though.



    Edit- Hernanes was the scorer for Brazil. Told ya he was good... =P

    The Ivory Coast are a very impressive side. They remind me of Nigeria in the last olympics. If the Argies can overcome this physicality I'll be impressed.

    Acosta taps in a deflection from a Messi shot after a quick free. Good game, the Ivory Coast look excellent.

    Are Eurosport showing these games?

    I know you can watch them by pressing the red button on the Beeb but that is of no use with Sky+

    Whats up with the referees?It wasnt just the idiot in charge of the Brazil and Belgium game but all the matches I've seen,they have been giving free kicks for nothing and the amount of red cards so far is terrible.Kompany,Sno and Fellaini didnt deserve to get sent off.Fellaini and Kompany's yellow cards werent even free kicks

    Just watching Brazil v Cameroon. Ronaldinho is whipping in some unbelievable balls from set pieces. 0-0 as it approaches the half. Cameroons are filthy bastards.

    What a crap, crap game. Brazil have been awful, with Anderson, Ronaldinho and Diego all absolutely shite.

    Cameroons were just intent kicking them around the pitch and it worked.

    Nigeria 2-0 up on Belgium in the 2nd half of their semi. Victor Anichebe has just missed an absolute sitter in front of an open goal. A real shocker.

    The proper fun begins later on with Brazil against the Argies.

    Anderson has really really disappointed me this tournament, he has basically been sh*te along with most of Brazils midfield bar Diego. I think it may be safe to say that Ronaldinho will never be able to beat his marker on the wing anymore, it's a shame.

    Good game though, Marcelo, Mascherano and Gago have really impressed, Lucas has been pretty invisible too.

    Lovely goal too, Aguero deflected it in off his stomach, difficult enough.

    Brazil with two good chances, game opening up!
