Wow, did not foresee Espana loosing. Villa, Torres and Iniesta could not find the back of the net. Look at the shot and time of possession differential! Jeebus, props to Fernandes and the Swiss.
Chile looked good as expected and had the opportunity to take on more points. Intriguing.

Very surprised that Switzerland beat Spain, bad luck for them today and I was really hoping South Africa could at least draw after the first goal but they were completely outclassed.

I felt kinda bad for So Africa when they showed all the fans walking out. Way to stand by your team folks

wowwowweeewah.
Back to the action, seemingly most of these teams focused on defense and ball control makes for some decidedly boring matches. You can see why the casual observer does the big
If I were coach: simply play 5-5 formation with nobody in the middle. Five back to play defense and just lob the ball over the top for strikes. Let see some action mofos!
Just like hockey, dump'n chase.

Germany is the most impressive team so far for me. They know exactly how to kill weaker teams.
I really hope all teams will be more attack-minded for the second and third games, scoring some spectacular goals like they should!

Argentina ALMOST scored a last goal in the last few seconds of that game.

Wowz, ARG clearly showed why they are one of the favorites to win it all. At times it almost seemed like they were toying with the defense, they are so good on the ball.
Red Devils had a golden opportunity to tie up the game 60 minutes in and then they lost defensive focus and fell apart.
