As a Frenchman you should know Henry was born in a Paris sub-urb...


I was obviously subject to some nasty brainwahing by the National Front.

And I'm an ******* fan too =/

But yeah, what I meant to say was that his family was from Martinique. Which is pretty much irrelevant anywho.

Aye, don't mind me, I like whacking Frenchies on the head with a baguette!

Small victory by Switzerland; that group is turning out to be a close call with a thrilling finish. Just saw some footage of Korean fans in Seoul, and god, those people went mental after Park's equalizer.

Looking forward to the Spain match, I missed their tasty first game.

I'm thinking another 4-0 for Spain on that one.

YA RLY!

Here's why.

Tunisia already played Saudi Arabia and tied 2-2.

Saudi Arabia played Ukraine and lost horribly, 4-0

Spain played Ukraine and destroyed them 4-0 (Very bad show for Ukraine on this one)

So, essentially, based strictly on simple estimates, Spain is 10x better than Tunisia. I also do not think that Tunisia has the finishing ability needed to break through the Spanish defence. This should be a walk over, but I think Spain is expecting this and will not be bringing their best game.

Hence, only 4-0.

8 mins: GOAL Spain 0-1 Tunisia
Joahar Mnari puts Tunisia into a shock lead after great work from Ziad Jaziri inside the penalty area. The ball from Jaziri finds Mnari whose initial shot is saved by Iker Casillas but he tucks away the rebound.

Smiley: glare

That's rediculous. I hope Spain shapes up proper. 4-1 then! Ha!


Let me know how it progresses, I can't listen, I'm in a conference call. Smiley: mad

Shock lead, but Spain will probably brush them off before full-time.

Or my Fantasy 11 will have another drubbing!!

I'd like to agree with you, but 7 mins into 2nd half, should someone mention to the Spaniards that they're 1-0 down to a bunch of camel-shaggers?

Silly latinos are playing like they're defending a 3 goal lead!

Shaddap, that's why it's called a guesstimate. You should know all about that working with doctors and such.

Was never in doubt. As soon as Spain scored they were always going to bang in more.

My assessment of the world cup so far is that the only team to fear is Argentina, and England stuffed them back in November Smiley: wink

Bring it on!

He he =)

Well deserved victory.

Though, really, I wish every single f'ing country would stop scoring in the last five minutes. I cannot even count the match reports I had to re-write any more, and we're just halfway....
