Aussies were kicking us all over the place. That knee against Cocu should've been a red. Holland should've gotten a penalty because of hands by forgot-his-name.
Aussies are a very tough (literally) team, but on the footballing side they've got very little to show.
i can't believe it, but i'm actually interested in the world cup. i'll be watching.
i don't know a damn thing about soccer except you cant fuck with brazil.

I know shit about the soccer. I mean, I obviously know how to play, but I don't know a damn thing about players/teams/countries.
Tell me everything I'll need to know to watch the World Cup.

My friend, all you need to know going to the cup is Brazil.There nobody else to watch.Dont waste your time on other teams.
But,quick recap of the World Cup history.First cup was in 1930 in Uruguay and they won.Brazil holds the record for most cups with 5.58,62,70,94,and 2002 are the years they've won.Italy and Germany are next with 3 cups for each.Brazil has had many class players.Pele,Garrincha,Zito,Santos,Socrates,Zico,Romario,Bebeto.Pele holds record for most goals with 1225.
There are other class players from different countries.Cruyff,Maradona,Bekenbour,Stoichkov,Baggio,Uesebio,Rosi,Van Basten,Platin,Yashin and more.
Italy have been known historically for their defense.
Germany for their rough way of play(tackling and breaking legs).
Brazil for unique technic.
Just random thoughts.I'm sure someone else will inform you more.

Brazil is probably gonna win. Other countries that are historicly seen most important in soccer are:
- Argentina
- England
- France
- Germany
- Holland
- Italy
- Spain
- Uruguay (were WC 2 times)
U gotta know Holland showed the world how to play football in '74 and '78. We lost the both finals but with the style of playin we used then, we introduced the modern style of playing football.
We are known for our attractive and attacking way of playing. Make sure you watch our matches, they are gonna be worth it.

To be honest, I'm not a fan of Italy. Don't get me wrong: I love the country. Just hate their style of playing. So defensively it's boring. They allways have brilliant players but they never seem to show it because of the way they play. That's a shame.
My predictions:
group A- Germany and Poland
group B- England and Sweden
group C- The Netherlands and Ivory Coast
group D- Portugal and Mexico
group E- Czech republic and Italy
group F- Brazil and Croatia
group G- France and Suisse
group H- Ukraine and Spain

check out Ronaldinho on youtube.
Brazil are the world champs and are again favourites to win it again as they have the best team on paper. As they have Ronaldinho (best player right now) Ronaldo (former 3 time world player of the year) Adriano and Kaka who are world class right now.
But alot of other nations like listed above can win it.
Alot of teams in the WC are making their debut such as Togo, Ghana, Ivory Coast and Trinidad & Tobago. Theyre not expected to do that well, maybe Ivory Coast will.

Don't expect too much from Ronaldhino
He's at his best when usurping the defenders so that someone else can make an easy goal.

He didnt play very good in the semi finals and the final of the Championsleague. He seemd to be a bit tired. I wouldn't be supriced if he's gonna be the disappointment of this tournament. I expect a lot of Henry.

People expect too much of Ronaldhino. He's a good player but he can't win matches on his own. It's a team sport. Some people don't seem to understand this.
Funny thing about Ronaldhino is that he doesn't actually have to play well to be beneficial to the team. He's always a huge threat when he's on the ball and this allows the rest run around freely when all eyes are on him.
I'm expecting Henry to play a killer tourney though
