    I think I heard that ESPN was doing something with the audio to somehow remove or minimize the horn blowing in the background because everyone trying to watch it on tv is complaining about. I don't know how they filter it out...you can still hear it but not as bad...noticed the same thing during the little bit of Argentina/S.Korea game this morning.

    If Spain makes it out of the group as the 2nd team; they will mostly likely play Brazil in the first knockout game....yikes!!!

      Supposedly, Slovenia is trash talking the USA and guaranteeing victory against them tomorrow.

      USA just kind of laughing and shrugging their shoulders. It's not like we are any Goliath of soccer.

        Argentina destroy South Korea 4-1 and yet Korea did not look that bad.

        Vu Vu's selling well in the UK.

        Wimbledon just banned them from the tennis next week.

          Greece make history by winning thier first ever match at the world cup.

          Also become the first team at this world cup to win a match having gone behind.

          Now it's France v Mexico.

                Mexico 0-2 in front right now, looking good for them as there's only 10 minutes left

                  And the penalty was also predicted!

                            What a trip, Mexico's Javier Hernandez scores against France...just like his grandfather did against the French in the 50s.

                              Nope, 0-2, as the French were the so-called hometeam and the Mexicans the visitors. I know that makes no sense in a World Cup in South Africa, but that's how it is.
