I don’t know I should blame Sanyo Video maker, China, USA, Japan or any one else, any way, my recorder some how didn’t record the first game till 70 minutes. So, I missed the most part of the S. Korea vs Togo, however I know Ahn the star of this game and also 2002 World cup was the sub of Iranian striker, Ali Samerh in his club. See what we did to our player by putting him behind a big name, Daei, and what they did with their potential. Sad indeed. If you guys saw the game please report it here.
You know France have enough quality strikers for the rest of the world, names that any player's back thrills playing against them, but some how for strange reasons they haven’t scored for more than 360 minutes in World Cup. I guess some of their players belong to museum. I was thinking if we export our Ali Daei to them, their collection of fossils will be complete. However, don’t count them out yet, if Henry plays the way I have seen before from him, no team can stand in front of them. He still showed a few scenes why I believe he is the best player ever played football in history. About Switzerland, do I remember any thing? A team with no name, no significant action but hard team work and luck. They were too lucky the ref didn’t call the obvious penalty. They have nothing to say. I guess S. Korea has no problem going up from this group.
Finally the majesty Brazil came, a team with too many names, with too much news around them, a team with too many stars. Of course today, sleeping stars. They showed they are too much for any team to handle, even their reserve under 21 team is a threat for WC any day. But, today, they didn’t play to their potential, and that is dangerous for other teams. One of my Brazilian friends once told me, if Brazil start slow, no one can stop them, they have to get to the world cup tempo, well they start slow and I guess my Brazilian friend knows his team better than us. Croatia must be the happiest loser in the plant, they showed a very competitive game with the champion. Good game plan, excellent individual skills, strong team work, defensively and offensively. I am sure now Branko is happy and in his next interview will mention “we almost beat the team who lost to the Brazil 1-0”. Well, we already played with two teams who are claimed to be number 4 in the world.
Enjoy the football festival.
Cheers
