The Suisse vs. France should be a gooder.

Least exciting match day so far.

Although games between two less talented teams like Ecuador and Honduras usually end up being pretty entertaining.

I think Switzerland vs. France is going to be a hell of a game.

The guy got knee'd in the back of the head, not sure how you want him to react.

That wasn't what I was referring to. It was a previous flop before that.

To some people, if an Italian player falls down, no matter the reason, it's a dive.

Azzuri are circling . . . . They smell a goal. Balotelli stalking/testing the goalkeeper . . .

Have to agree. The flop is strong with the Italians today, kind of annoying since we saw them stay on their feet against England.

Getting lucky today, Costa Rica has had the better chances.
