Soccer WC Review

A deferred post

All the team have played thier first match.

To me most disappointing team(s) are England for their coward approach and France for not geling together as a team and the main culprit is Thierry Henry. Beckham and Zidane being the solace for their respective teams. We expect a special performance from the talented France team and professional England Team, which is always haunted and hyped by their own media.

Brazil, just like everyone I am also a Samba fan for the past 14 years, looks little bit rusty. Ronaldo has to improve his skill and should have an eye on his waist size which is increasing like the gold rate in India. But I am sure they will hit back soon and they must as we all want them to win and entertain us with their aggresive, graceful brand of football.

Most surprising team, which has given a good performace than expected, for me is Germany. Traditionally Germans like to win a match 1-0 than 5-3 meaning they are contented with one goal and they will pack their defence which was their forte. They won't attack much and depend entirely on Corners-Heading and Free Kicks. But this german team is other way around. They are very aggressive and takes 60-80% possessions and they want to hit the target most of the time. Sadly their defence is not that much strong as their previous famed teams of early 70s and late 80s. They had Brehme, Bien and the 'Brainy' Beckenbauer in their ranks. I really want this team to reach semis.

Other team which is playing well is Czech Republic. Poorest performace till date was given by Ukraine against Spain yesterday.
