Welcome to my Life

Want to see some pretty poor football? No I am not talking about England’s performance yesterday but Mexico’s 0-0 draw against Angola. At 8 I headed up the pub just to watch the match and after the match I felt staying at home would have been a better option. Nothing much happened until the final 5 minutes apart from Macanga getting a second yellow and got himself sent off, plus another 6 yellow cards were shown.
Anyway, Lunch time was the game to watch as Argentina looked comfortable in their game against Serbia. A packed stadium and a very happy Maradona watched as Maxi opened the score within 6 minutes from kick off. You would not believe the states as both teams had 50% of the ball with Argentina getting 10 shots on target and only 3 off. They looked very comfortable as a 24 pass move ends in one of the bet goals of this tournament from Cambiasso finishing from 12 yards out.
This was the beautiful game being played by one of the favourites to win this World Cup, as Maxi makes it 3-0 before half time.

I knew that Argentina would win but never with so much grace and style, we have a guy who just started work in our place and he is from Argentina, a good man who has a sense of humour and a genuine nice chap, I must remember to shake his hand on Monday.
Anyway the second half seen Kezman get a straight red and with that Serbia fell as the Chelsea striker Crespo made it 4 from a Messi cross.
Maradona celebrated as the final 6 minutes Argentina finished off Serbia with goals from Tevez and the 18 year old Messi.

The Third game of the day played at 5pm was the decider for Holland who could make it through to the last 16 with Argentina, England, Germany and Ecuador. Ivory Coast needed a draw or a win to stay in this World Cup and looked strong until Van Persie superbly struck a free-kick into the back of the net after 23 minutes before Ruud Van Nistelrooy reminded Man Untited fans that he can still put them away.
Ivory Coast looked strong in the second half with Kone making a powerful run and scoring from 25 yards out. But it was not enough to keep the Dutch from winning their 14 match unbeaten run. The Dutch will now play against Argentina to decide who will go through.
