GERMANY VS MEXICO FIFA WORLD CUP. Mexico 1 Germany 0
Who would have thought Mexico could down one of the favorites . Germany are not out of it but will have to improve to move out of their group. They had 25 shots on goal but just couldn't find the net.
There have been a couple of upsets already. I don't fancy my chances in this already but it is still early days. I follow football but not really the South American sides besides Brazil and Argentina. I have been watching most of the matches up to now just to see the standard of each team and a few have impressed already.
There are a few matches left to finish the first round so there could be a few more upsets. Iceland and Croatia are standing out so far. Russia's win was expected over Saudi Arabia so we need to see them tested before we know how good they are. Spain and Portugal had a ding dong battle the other day with Portugal relying heavily on Ronaldo.
It seems over already. Damn. Another one (a favourite of mine) bites the dust. Oh well. I don't think a lot of people foresaw this or the Argentina - Iceland tie.
If we messed up on this one 99% did as well. Still very early. We don't know what the standard of each team is so the next round should be easier. We have to still see some big teams play like Brazil, Netherlands and England. This tournament is wide open still.
I think in this current tournament, so far, they have been no underdogs... Each teams are try to show what they re made up of... Iceland contained Argentina and Messi yesterday, that was after moroco was beaten by Iran.. And France luckily got past a determined Australia side.. So far so good.. This tournament as lived up to its hype
