The football is on.
Jun. 20th, 2010 09:26 pmI want to mention that I'm cheering for the All Whites, the NZ football team. They sure don't play beautifully, but so far they did far better than anyone could have expected. Which means, they outdid a lot of the established teams because those haven't exactly lived up to expectations.
I find myself a lot less interested in this World Cup than in previous years. It might have something to do with the fact that there's the little one who is much more entertaining than the average match.
I wonder though what the Ghanaians and Italians are doing who are living in our old neighbourhood. Ghana are currently leading the table in Group D and play Germany next - and if the Germans don't win they will in all likelihood fly home earlier than anticipated.
As to the Italians, two draws, which earn the Kiwis praise, are just not good enough for the current Champions.
