    Peru wins its first WC game in 40 years. The victim? The poor Sockeroos.

    Both are out...France and Denmark advance.

    Nigeria vs Argentina is next, man, that’s gonna be a good game...

    I hope Iceland beats Croatia...

        Mexico gets trounced by Sweden...but still advances because Korea shocks Germany, 2-0.

        Wow...what a horrid World Cup for Germany...the defending champs didn’t go past the first round...

          I was suprised Germany lost today, thought for sure they would advance, currently watching Brazil and Serbia, Brazil up 2-0
          wasn't Brazil one of the heavy favorites going into the tournament?

              It's more than unfortunate the fact that both, Argentina and Uruguay would eventually face each other for a place in the semi final. What a bummer!

              Also, not really surprised but it is nice to see the Germans out, and Brazil has yet to find a decent opponent for everyone to see if they have anything interesting to offer in terms of spectacle and performance.

              I do believe Spain is going to grow as the tournament goes.

              So far the teams I liked the most are Uruguay and Spain. Belgium plays nice-fast soccer, and Colombia sure makes the ball roll.

              Uruguay, Spain, and Argentina I believe are the teams capable to reach the final match.

              So far this one's been a VERY exciting worldcup!

                        Can you record the game and watch it later, or will you already find out who won before you watch?
                        which takes the fun out of knowing who wins before watching it?

                          I find that if I DVR the games, which I do during the week for the ones I want to see, I end up fast forwarding through it all, and really don't get much enjoyment out of it. I also tried just having todays games on in the background while I was remodeling my bathroom, but found it too distracting and turned it off. better to just sit and watch in real time

                            My DVR has a Highlight feature...it takes you to each dangerous attack, goals, substitutions, etc...it’s an awesome feature.

                                Is there a feature that automatically deletes all soccer from your TV? I could really use that!
                                .
                                .
                                .
