the soccer drug.

In the match between England and Ecuador 1-0, Sven-Goran Eriksson should have just stuck to 4-4-2 formation instead of trying out something new. The players look lost and they played like shit.

Rooney looks stupid playing without an attacking partner and Lampard was not good enough despite his efforts and nobody even knew Beckham was sick and if Ashley Cole was a split second late to deflect the shot made by Ecuador`s striker...Sigh. Someone needs to send England home. Yes I hear a name. What? Ah. Portugal. They might do the job nicely. =)

Which brings me to the extremely violent match between Portugal and Holland 1-0. 16 yellow cards and 4 red ones! But I`m not complaining because it sure was entertaining. My dad shouted like an excited little boy when both teams clashed and fought. `Free-for-all! Free-for-all!` And I was thinking, oh well. Men are still little boys at heart. Haha.

I know Cristiano`s a fucking show-off, but seeing him in tears due to the frustration of wanting to play on but couldn`t because of his injury is so heart-wrenching! I was not a happy girl at all when Deco(I like him.) was booked twice and was told to leave. Referee Kayu lah!

Actually I was secretly hoping that Holland would beat Portugal(surprise surprise) because in my opinion they were the ones who played better in this game, controlled passes, good attacking and all.

There was so much rage and anger between the two teams in this match, so I thought it was quite comforting to see Giovanni(what. I dunno his surname cannot ah.) from Holland and Deco from Portugal talking to each other after they both got kicked out; probably discussing a plan to plot and kill Ivanov for issuing them the red card ha.

Italy Vs Australia. 1-0. Ended not long ago. Australia`s defending was amazing(Chipperfield`s goooddd.); I never knew they could play this well. In my opinion they dominated this match. UNTIL. 8 SECONDS before it all ends, with a score of still 0-0, Grosso went to ground under Lucas`s tackle, which resulted in a penalty shot, where Totti(he's hot) took over and shot the ball high into the net, deeming them(Italy) victorious. What a heartbreak for the Australians!

Switzerland vs Ukraine in an hour's time. :)


sigh. FIFA WORLD CUP.
at the expense of my mid-year exams.
someone shake me out of it!
oo fyi, I am a proud supporter of SPAIN. =D
