Battle? Pardon me Sa. Its one sided written all over. The Japanese play a lot better football than the Portuguese who played like they had a roast pigling each for lunch!!!!!! I don't much care for Spain either but they certainly are a class act. My pet cockroaches can play a better game, if you don't mind me saying so. Thank Gwood, all the Portuguese flag-flying and screaming and blowing horns will stop now, and they will go back to polishing shoes or their construction jobs.
Next on the way home is Brazil, I hope. They are no longer entertaining. I was hoping some of our brothers from Lusio world made it to the finals: Mozambique (just missed) and Angola. That I would cheer for. They have no pretensions, and play a honest game (no dropping every few minutes). Now for once I hope Ghana keeps their nerve and wins the thing!!! Its time some outsider came by and did the number!
