WC G06 Countdown: 1 Day
Thursday, June 08, 2006
OH YEAH! Its just tomorrow!!! I can't wait...However sadly I have to go for Chinese tuition in the afternoon...
dammit...can't gear up for the first game. 1 DAY!!! Although I'm an England fan and I'm so happy Rooney "can" play after the Group stages, I'm still going to stay up and catch some Germany vs Costa Rica action. You know....you just gotta check out the first match whoever's playing. I watched France vs Senegal in 2002 World Cup's first game, and believe me....Woot~ Senegal won!!! Could Costa Rica pull something like that off? Now, Spain will play Ukraine in the first Group H game. Both are talented teams and it should be a high-scoring affair.
~Countries in Group H~Let's check out Group H:
Spain are dubbed the World's biggest underachievers. Their biggest achievement in a World Cup is fourth place. They'll have a tough game against Ukraine and might draw. Tunisia would be easier opponents and should see them triumph. They should be able to get a few goals pass Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia always do not do well when they face European teams. To gain a surprise qualification, they need to win against Tunisia, which would not be easy. They also need to gain valuable draws against Ukraine or Spain, which would be very, very difficult.
Tunisia should be able to pull of a shock if they're tactically right. A win against Saudi Arabia should help in their attempt to qualify. Tunisia might pull off an unlikely draw if they defend well against Spain. Another draw against Ukraine and they might just go through, surprisingly.
Ukraine should be firing in loads of goals as they have Andrei Shevchenko. They will have a tricky game against Spain. A bag of goals should come firing into the back of Saudi Arabia's net in Ukraine's second game. Their last against Tunisia would be more difficult but should prevail.
