Big football fans here. gr8. have fun and watch every game

[Ashwin]

The first match between South Africa and Mexico ended in a 1-1 draw.

Impressive performance by the hosts

[Grr]

Thanks Ashwin.

[Ashwin]

Thanks Ashwin.

The second match between France and Uruguay was lousy, many yellow cards and one of the Uruguayan players was sent off for a bad foul on Sagna.

Wayward shooting from both sides resulted in a 0-0 draw.

[Ashwin]

The 3rd match of the 2010 WC saw the Republic of Korea beat Greece 2 - 0.

Greece looked lethargic while their opponents were highly energetic and creative and took advantage of poor defending to register the first victory of this year's WC.

Waiting for the 4th match to start, Argentina take on Nigeria.

4th match : Argentina vs Nigeria

Argentina won 1-0 thanks to a 7th minute header from Gaby Heinze.
Messi made a "mess" of opportunities though, failed to score

[Ashwin]

5th match: England vs USA

England look set to win with a brilliant strike by skipper Gerrard in the 3 rd minute but a disastrous goal keeping error by England keeper Green, at the end of the 1st half tied the score to 1-1, and it stayed that way till the end.

Lackluster performance by the English who failed to score in several good situations but a very impressive performance by the American team

[Ashwin]

6th match: Algeria vs Slovenia

A superb low curling effort from Slovenian skipper Koren was enough to secure a 1-0 victory over 10 man Algeria who had substitute striker Ghezzal sent off for a second yellow card after he handled the ball in the Slovenian penalty box

[Ashwin]

7th match: Serbia vs Ghana

Yet another red card at the WC, as 10 man Serbia went down to a 1-0 defeat to Ghana. Asamoah Gyan scored a penalty late in the 2nd half
