Anyone know Antolin Alcaraz played for Paraguay next ? Just curious as he's signed for Wigan on a free.

If you mean did he play yesterday, then yes, he scored their goal.

He took the goal really well, towering above both centre backs and finding the corner of the net with a powerful header.

Was poor defending but he took full advantage of it.

Yet another poor crowd.

Really disappointing. Are the TV figures down so far or what?

Wouldnt be suprised its been a poor tournemant so far, it seems slow even the bigger names dont seem to want it.

Hardly surprising that it's a poor crowd for this game. If this was in England it would be lucky to draw 20K. The quality of games will pick up when it comes to the next phase of games.

My thoughts exactly.

New Zealand have been impressive so far.

They look good as Martin Keown just said they like someone with that little bit of flair, they pass it around better than us and seem to be more patient.

As game 1 seems to be going to plan, it's more than likely game 2 will f*ck me up.

So, I've had a sneaky pound on Drogba first goal and the 1-1 at 30/1.
