This is the most weird WC in a very long time............Minnows seem to have no respect for the big boys.

The only thing which is not amazing in SA is the the struggle by the african teams. And of coz before the WC, i warned guys NOT to invest their emotions in these african teams. Those who failed to listen shauri yao.

Mwenza, your quotes in red hunibamba.

Haha!

Half Time: The samba boys lead 1-0. Lets wait for the 2nd half.

Meanwhile, in this sort of tournaments, managers should know where the points lie. E.g in this particular group the two soft targets are clearly North Korea and Portugal. The Ivorian should have beaten Portugal and then hope to beat North Korea. Attempting to get a result against Brazil is stretching their luck too far.

Am surprised they are trying harder to beat Brazil than they tried to beat the portuguese.

@mwenza, the truth hurts; and I'm beginning to feel like a young lover who's heart has been broken, one too many...

With Brazil 3 0 Ivory Coast at 62nd minute and first corner of the night for Ivory Coast at 64th minute, I must say we deluded ourselves and allowed ourselves to become disrepectful of Brazil.

The Ivorian talisman makes it 3-1.

And what natural/herbal stuff did Kaka smoke just before that game???

Conspiracy????

Poundfoolish...It was not a direct Red card but rather a second bookable offence. it was an "off-the ball" incident so the ref had no choice but to book Kaka

Poor Robert Green! He is the latest butt of numerous internet jokes.

* If only John Terry had lived next door to Robert Green's missus...

* Why is Robert Green like ITV HD? They both switch off at the crucial moment.

* What does Robert Green do after winning the World Cup? Drops his controller.
At least that's one British spillage the Americans won't be moaning about...

* What's the difference between Robert Green and Justin Bieber? Robert Green knows how to drop his balls.

* Kermit was right: It's not easy being Green.

* All these Rob Green jokes are getting out of hand. In fact they're crossing the line...

* The England lads had a get-together after the game and bought Robert Green a drink to commiserate. He spilled it.

* Steven Gerrard said: "The whole team is behind Rob Green." With hindsight, that's a good place to stand.

* Robert Green's bringing out his own South African trumpet. It's known as a boo-boozela

* Robert Green - a joke even Americans can understand.

* Yesterday at London Zoo one of the staff let a a Central American monkey slip out of his grasp. So Robert Green's not the only English keeper to drop a Howler.

* My computer's got the Robert Green virus. It can't save anything.

* Just bought a Robert Green condom. Extra slippery and you're guaranteed not to catch anything.

* Rob Green has injured himself. Apparently, he put his head in his hands and immediately kneed himself in the face.

* What's the difference between a botanist with the flu and the England goalkeeper? One has Green fingers and can catch a cold...

* Before he got into football, Robert Green was a bus driver. But he got fired because he couldn't make any stops.

* I'm Robert Green and cleaning Windows is my next idea...

* What's the difference between cinderella and robert green?.....?

* Apparently that fan had no trouble slipping into the England dressing room – Robert Green was guarding the door
