looking forward to the two later games, I expect the early kick off to be very poor quality, Slovakia arent anything special and New Zealand are one of the poorest teams in the competition. North Korea could be on the end of a serious hiding tonight, Im hopping Brazil break the some champagne
Is Hamsik lining up for Slovakia?
Alright, new Zealand...
What to look out for:
They're fucking dreadful in midfield. Seriously awful, not one good player in there. Elliott will try and hold it togethor but probably fail.
At the back, Nelson is all they've got. Really poor back four.
Upfront is their only decent prowess. Smeltz is a decent goalscorer with a good touch, and Rory Fallon is ok in the air. Better player than he looks.
That's it. Watch them work their absolute cubt off for 90 mons trying to track down the ball that they've invariably just given away. They're good at set pieces, so they'll put effort into any fucking corner, free kick or throw in they get.
If Slovakia are any good, they'll smash them.

The ground isn't even half full.
Fuck south Africa and their pitiful attempt at hosting a world cup.

It's sad alright, but you have to reserve some blame for FIFA and their crappy ticketing regulations and set prices.
15% of the average monthly income to watch Slovakia play New Zealand in the middle of nowhere. What did they expect?
I'm only getting to about 10 games and it's costing me a fortune. If tickets to this match were anything up to 15 pounds, I would have been there and I'd guess the stadium would have been almost full.

10 games isn't such a bad effort.
How much are the standard ticket prices?

Surely they would have been better off offering up games with less attraction for a lot less? A full stadium is better than maximising profit at times.

10 games is out of reach for the majority of the population though.
Group matches are about 50GBP for any decent seats. Cheap seats are about 30 pounds.
After the group stages, it just gets ridiculous.

Mate - no need to defend the country. Ryan has a very anti-South African bias and constantly takes shot at the country. Let him be. Anyone who's followed the mockery FIFA has made with tickets (& raping the country of the profits as Ross has also mentioned in another thread) knows this has little to do with South Africa.

These are the worst two teams to ever play on grass, nevermind a world cup.

Can you let me know (as I cannot watch it) how Hamsik (the Napoli midfielder) is doing? He should one of Slovakia's best players.
