It been such a hectic time, I have not even gotten around to writing about the groups or the teams. It seems that every day something happens with a team that changes your outlook of their expected performance. Take for instance the injuries to Drogba, Nani, Ferdinand, no one expected their teams to be weakened.


With the kick off of the World Cup today, many may be shocked with the results, with hosts South Africa drawing with Mexico 1-1, and even more shocking France being held by Uruguay 0-0. Both matches produced good all round football, but lack the quality that one expects at this level. All in all, this may Group A a very interesting group going into the next matches, as any teams that slips will likely be going home early.

 
The big match up tomorrow will be a toss up between the Argentina vs Nigeria game and the England vs USA game. For me, the England vs USA match should produce attacking football, and we should see at least three goals in that match. Argentina will have their hands full against an aggressive Nigerian team. The FIFA footballer of the year, Lionel Messi will have to be contained if Nigeria are to have any hope of a draw, as I don't expect them to win this one.


My predictions for tomorrow's games: Greece vs North Korea - 0-2
                                                          Argentina vs Nigeria - 2-1
                                                          England vs USA - 1-0


It should be a great day of football.....
