    It was only "entertaining" because people glorify the under dog.
    Change the crests on Argentina's jersey and it's easily one of the worst matches of the tournament so far.

    So, Germany - Ghana game derailed the bandwagon?

    Altidore won't play. Not sure if he'll play against Germany either.

    Yep, Germany kits have dropped in sales in Asia(China& SEA) since that draw with Ghana:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:But it's funny seeing them being so passionate about Germany.

    As a person of Chinese descent I can attest to the fact that almost every Chinese "sports fan" roots for the winner. I myself am a Germany fan as well, but I much prefer underdog teams such as the East Asian Teams, Costa Rica, etc. But honestly this trend could be said about anywhere. For example I'm sure Man City's fanbase was not nearly as large as it was 5 years ago.

    I see China played again today against Macedonia, but only 0-0 this time, but anyway what players played for Macedonia?

    they're probably playing for the draw, which is a smart move. Only bring in Dzagoev or Kerzhakov if their down. If they can snatch a point it puts a lot of pressure on Belgium and Korea to get a result in the last fixture

    Italian radio commentators about SK vs Algeria tie: "Korea is way stronger than Japan that is one of the few team that missed to reach the round16 at home in 2002"

    This is the end. Add to that a fair PK for Algeria which they got before the first goal.

    Great work Algeria!!!! :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

    Looking at Korea now, it could have been worse for Japan after 2 matches, couldn't it?
