HELL YEAH!!!\nThe best soccer you will ever see. I think I'm sleep deprived. Here in Australia the live coverage starts at 11pm on SBS so I've been up all night. I just had to watch my Aussie Socceroo's and then my 2nd faves Italy. I'm even more excited now to see how the Games in Australia's group pan out. I'm a very proud Aussie girl today.

they are definitely not the 4th best soccer nation in the world. the ranking has never been so far from the actual quality of soccer' nation for as long as I have been following it (about 10 years!), they really need to fix it for it to reflect better the actual ranking in between nations or just stop with this non sense that they call ranking, teams don't even play against the same quality of opponents to start with so................

It was great to see an African team come out and play like that.  Not only was it great for soccer, but it was a good deal for the US.  They always play exciting soccer but with weak defenses never win.  This  win was great!

Gilberto, mi amigo, thank you for posting this.  Your post is the best.  There is not a better team in the world to watch then the Boca Juniors! I love them.  They are so entertaining to watch and their fans are the best.  I don't think there is a better place to watch a soccer game than La Bombonera!  What happens to River Plate fans when their team is playing bad?....They disappear!  What happens to the Boca's when they are not playing well?...we get louder and louder with support.  We are los xeneize's!  Martin Palermo is my favorite Boca Junior, he terrorizes all opponets.  God Bless the Boca Juniors!

doubted cz tunisia plays much better than KSA. man those people should be banned from playing in the WC. they are the highest-paid team yet have no motivation to win. they play for money!

MLS is definitely not the calibur of the leagues overseas in England, Germany, Spain, Italy, etc.  I have to admit that the MLS is definitely trying to get up to those levels though.  I say give it some time and the MLS will soon compete with the aforementioned leagues.

i know i'll take a bashing from the english football fans here but here goes anyways... in retrospect to most english footballers, they do make too much money!  technically-that is skillwise-they're english players are far inferior to say, spanish, argentine, brazilian, dutch, czech or-oh my god! even french players. take david beckham for example... the man is above-average at best... he's not great goalscorer like ronaldinho, doesn't possess riquelme's vision, figo's footwork, nedved's playmaking penchant nor landon donovan's speed. we're never going to compare him to zidane for a myriad of reasons-most of which have to deal with ability. he doesn't even play any real defence. all of these downgraded abilities and yet, only ronaldinho makes more money than he does.  why?  because of looks...!  (chuckles...) then there're are individuals such as jermaine defoe whom i can never recall ever starting a match for team england-and rightfully so-yet he makes millions.  onward, we have the goalkeeper, robinson who would not start for my national team, romania if he were selectable by the head coach, victor piturca.  i cannot remember sol cambell, joe cole or shaun wright-phillips haven't really made serious impressions on me. ofcourse, there are exceptions... rooney is a boatload of talent, sheringham continues to be a warrior and steven gerrard is by far, the best midfielder england have now... he even scored today, versus trinidad and tobago.  then there are players such as crouch and, possibly the best england has to offer, michael owen. this brings us to a serious question: why don't these players make anywhere nearly as much as beckham-i mean, i really understand ronaldinho's income-he deserves every penny and more. what is depressing to me is that beckham isn't even the best midfielder on his national team let alone in europe, with the likes of rosicky, nedved, figo, ballack, antonio reyes and so forth-or the world with riquelme, donovan, ronalaldinho, robinho as well as julio baptista getting the nod from me over beckham-and i watch and follow loads of football-you would think i really didn't have a social life if you all would know how much football i follow. therfore, i know what i am arguing about! although footballers do not make anywhere near the kind of money that nba basketball players or pga tour professional golfers make on a yearly basis, some are grossly overpaid-especially in england.  to compare the earnings parity among the different sports: as much money as ronaldinho and beckham make-both in the vicinty of $25 million- kevin garnett of the nba makes $28 million per year in salary alone-not including very lucrative endorsements. shaquille o'neal makes more than $30 million a year in salary alone. let's not even discuss kobe bryant. the single most boring sport you can ever wacth on telivision, golf, brings tiger woods more than $60 million a year in total. phil mickelson more than $25 million. therfore, in comparison, footballers' pay, anywhere in the world i'm afraid, pale in comparison to athletic earnings from your brothers in arms from acroos the atlantic-and i do not mean canada!!! footballers face much more pressure to perform well than athletes here in the united states and then there're all the politics involved-such as when say, germany suit up against poland or ireland republic play england. everyone on both side play their hearts out when turkey face greece and serbia face either bosnia-herzigovina or croatia. we, as romanians, lose our minds when we play hungary. this unique to only football, and adds alot of pressure. when you really think about it, eleven or so men can cause the utmost national pride or adversely depress millions, in seconds. football is the only sport consistently used as political propaganda-remember el salvador-honduras? the match only pushed things over the edge and gave both nations' leade

Why do you have to ask this kind of question? here is a good one for you, I will guest you are Europeen, does anybody in Europe give a damn about the MLS?\nanyway I live in the US and still don't watch their soccer league, however from outside I was staying up really late to watch the NBA, you know the best of Basket ball as The UEFA chmpions league is the best of Soccer, Capiche? compris? compredido? got it?

No, they are not the best in the world but in England, to a certain extent, they are. Just look at their history. No other club in England can match their trophy haul. Do you see MU winning the Champions League five times? Does MU's trophy cabinet have the REAL cup? No. But I'll be damned if Liverpool's club anthem is NOT the best in the world. You'll Never Walk Alone!!

USA has a great chance at being number #1 or #2 in the group.Johnson will give every team a hard time with his speed.Also Donovan is playing very unselfishly latly.Even is the MLS game this weekend he had 2 assists.That is what we need from him in the World Cup.Sorry tho if they get number 2 in the group,they will lose to brazil in Dortmund the 27 of june.You never know they might be #1 in their group and then they would get through the 1st round!

I agree Fudgie .... we both deserve the plaudits .... whats all that guff coming from the english corner ?....... we only have a population of 5M....... and even though we can only produce 2 teams ( for the mo, c'mon the Jambo's) to qualify for european football, its still a brill achievement ...... anyway, the english leagues are all hyped up by the english media ..... the premiership only has 2 or 3 decent teams in it ...... both the Tic and the Gers would run amock down south ... they wouldnt know what hit them ???????

I imagine the knowledge of most of the people who answered this question is (like they answered) "slim to none".\n\nBrazil is a very good team and are last WC's winners. They have some of the best players in the world playing all over the world in English, South American and European leagues.\n\nAustralia have some of the best players in the world playing all over the world in English and European leagues.\n\nOf note, so far they beat the 5th best South American team. It was thought to be impossible. They beat the Greeks, the 2004 Euro champs. They beat the Japanese, the Socceroos' first WC game in 32 years 3-1 (should have been 3-0 but for the foul that the ref didn't pick up and later apologised for). They beat The Netherlands in a friendly on their home ground....no matter how friendly a game is, you never lose on home ground if you can help it!\n\nAustralia has a chance. Brazil has a chance and  about 9 hours will be the test of time!

If they do make it beyond the group stage, that alone will be a testiment to how U.S. soccer is improving. Many people are complaining about what a tough group the U.S. is in, and they are right about that - but this is a chance to show what they can do. With that said, will they make it? I'd give it a 30% chance.

Being a proud Arsenal FC member I can only advise you to go on the official site for Singapore and sign up. You are making the right decision, boy. My life has become so much better since I am a member, you see I am an English man living and working in Germany and you may not know but German football   (Bundesliga) is as interesting as watching Camilla Parker Bowles shaving her legs so it is very important to stay in touch with the real sport and your team as the only teams these pesants know are Chelsea Fc (cheats) and ManU (sold out to an American leprichaun). aye they will  know Arsenal but just because the keeper IS German. Well thank god they're going for a big surprise during the World Cup ,mark my words mate.\nAnyway follow my advise and you will be a gooner too...\n\nno offence to chelsea or manU fans , oh yeah and no offence dear zee germanzzzzz...
