south africa 2010

Bonjour a tous!

The first game of each country in the world has finished. It has been a round with many surprises; as the very good strategy of North Corea against Brasil, Spain’s defeat against Switzerland, and the golazos (it’s how we call very good goals here in Mexico) of Brasil.

This worldcup’s inauguration was really colorful and in a very african style. It’s the first time, this magnificient event takes place in an african country, so this world doesn’t just represent southafrica but the whole african continent. I think it’s a memmorable world cup.

The opening match was against Mexico , so all of us here really got into the match. I think Mexico could have played so much better but well we can’t do anything about it now. The other day when I saw a group in facebook called ; I really started laughing about how people have crazy ideas.

My favorite to win this world cup is Spain, but seeing yesterday’s performance I really think they should start playing as in the Euro. Other teams are Brasil and Argentina; the all time favorites and Germany is playing really well too.

Now that the second round of matches has started, Uruguay played really good in their 3-0 victory over the host Southafrica, Argentina won 4-1 against South Korea and Greece won 2-1 against Nigeria. In a few hours we will know Mexico’s future in the world cup as it’s going to play against France. We are all wainting for this important match.

Finally, I just hope this world cup we had been waiting for 4 years, will overcome all expectatives.
