Your view is wrong, obviously.

I'm talking about the quality of the individual effort, not the impact of one team scoring against a 'super power'.
Originally posted by barstuddlol chile were my tip of the first round of matches... them and holland were excellent odds.
Honduras for an upset...either win or draw / Spain and Uruguay todays winners
should've been much more than 1-0, the worse ref at the world cup compiled by some poor finishing cost them. the result was never in doubt after the first went in though, quality side.
shame the swiss beat spain, makes it really hard for chile to make the last 16. expect them to beat the swiss but if spain beat them (which is looking like it's going to be the match of the group phase) i think it goes down to goal difference, not good if you've just beaten honduras 1-0.

and it looks like the story again this go-around is the growth of the game world side
parity, that seems the watch word
North Korea looks tough
the swiss are beating what many eurpopeans were lulled into thinking was one of the best teams in the world
Germany will win it all.

they were playing the Swiss. No excuse
they stunk
what are you people talking about, Spain played some beautiful football, had almost 70 percent of the possession, it was like watching a siege, they are truly a joy to watch, so the Swiss got lucky, bid deal, proves nothing. The Swiss sat behind the ball, what else can you do. If you want to look at a truly overrated team, check out England!
