FiFa World Cup Day 12

Wow, 12 days already? The world cup has already been started for 12 days. Unbelievable.

I woke up at 9am this morning to check on the score, between the group A countries. I was definitely surprised that France lost 2-1 to South Africa and Mexico losing 1-0 to Uruguay, despite that they both were pretty much qualified.

I went down to grab a bowl of macaroni and then went back to my room to watch The Mystery Of Love while having breakfast.

By 11:30am I was downstairs watching Argentina vs Greece. Despite the game between South Korea and Nigeria playing at the same time, CBC only can broadcast one game on TV.

The game between Argentina and Greece reminded me of the series between the Montreal Canadiens and the Washington Capitals. Where Greece would represent Montreal and Washington represents Argentina.

The Greeks' defense held Argentina scoreless at the first half, and finally Argentina was able to solve the Greeks' goalkeeper, who was having an outstanding game. He reminds me of Jaroslav Halak of the Montreal Canadiens, stopping nearly every shots he faced.

The game belonged to Argentina as they prevailed over Greece by a score of 2-0. This means Greece has been eliminated from the world cup, same with France, Nigeria and South Africa.

After the game, I didn't do much except listening to music an talking to friends on MSN.

Tomorrow, I'm going to be watching England vs Slovenia at 7. Perhaps the last England game I'll be watching? I hope not!
