Many forget they reached the quarterfinals just like England in the 2002 World Cup in Korea. On the way beating Portugal 2-1 the tournament favorites and only losing to Germany 1-0 scored by a certain Chelski player named Michael Ballack.

Yeah, with Frings handling the ball on the line (red and pk) but no call.

Good times, good times.

Yeah Torsten Frings what a tosser. We were dominating play at the time. Maybe it's just me but I still don't believe our team this year looks as good as that one did in 2002. I hope I'm proved wrong but the Coata Rica and Hondurus games did my head in.:(

First time we ever played them.

In our first ever world cup.

1950.

Beat us 1-0.

Our newspapers thought it was a misprint and reported that we won 10-1

And I seem to remember Alexis Lalas popping up at a corner in the 90s when they beat us. The papers made him out to be a part-timer that earnt money busking or something.... Obvious rubbish.

RSA winning 2 nil. Just switched it on, did Pies score/assist?

He didn't even play that well by his standards, and he was still the best player on the pitch by an embarassing distance.

Really strange competition this. Only 8 teams, and 5 of them are somewhere between poor and bloody awful. It's basically an excuse to have a Brazil Spain game that means slightly more than a friendly. Italy, don't you DARE muck that up.

Welll Iraq pulled the upset in the Asian Cup (Plus they aren't a bad team either) and SA is the host so its a little watered down this time. There are 5 good teams, just all stuck in one group the US, Italy, Egypt, Spain group one of the toughest groups of all time.
