Forget cricket for some time ... and enjoy the Soccer World Cup 2010. and cricket crazzies... please do not relate cricket players with soccer players ...
Oh but the fans of club soccer will be ready with their excuses every time.
There is a reason why there are so few Zidane's or Maradona's. They could score at BOTH the club and international levels. It is hard to score in international soccer where teams are cautious and don't give you space which they do in club soccer which is just entertainment. This is different. National pride on the line.

argentina...u got to be joking...they were their mere shadows in the game with nigeria..Japanese were better than them...neways that football...lets wait for the surprises..
c.ronaldo is a mere hype. he couldnt stay with d ball more than 2 sec. deco played better than him. ivory coast were awesome. till now messi is d best.
The headline should read "Portugal hold Ivory Coast to a draw" rather than the other way round. Ivory Coast were the better team and deserved 3 points.
