Slovakia vs New Zealand might be the most open game so far

[Javier]

3-4-3 for New Zealand vs Slovakia's 4-2-3-1 that has some talented attacking players.

This world cup really aint advertising for football so far

Many very very weak games... also in this game, mostly no real combinations, pathetic long balls... ugly and ineffective

You can only pray for Brazil, Ivory Coast - Portugal to be much better ...

Slovakia showed some life in the last 15 min

THERE'S A WORLD CUP THREAD 

Yeah I know, but some games might need some hype that others aren't getting.  Everybody is talking about the Portugal and Ivory Coast game which I think will just be another tight game but this HAD potential to be a sloppy open game.  It didn't deliver, but things could change in the 2nd half.

Blatant off-side. At least a goal though lol

It's the morning after, and the front page is about the 1-1 draw, lol. It's as good as a win for us.

c'mon, one of the marquee match-ups, Portugal vs. Ivory Coast ended 0-0; you wasted two hours of your life to be disappointed in the end.

more importantly, ESPN televised it when they could of showed something cool, like women's softball; with a score & a winner.

yeah i reckon the group matches should start to be a bit more open as teams try and stake their claim for qualifying, should hopefully make games a bit more open > more goals

been hella disappointing so far, with the exception of germany
