An intriguing group this one, with second place up for grabs;
France have possibly the most talented squad of the tournament. They also have Dechamps as manager. So, as is the way with the French, expect turmoil, rumours of Zidane/Wenger replacing him after the tournament, and numerous player meetings. If the click though, they will rack up the goals. Australia go into the tournament without a manager, and with 37 year old Tim Cahill leading the line. As you'd expect from the Aussie's, they'll be punchy but will probably prop up the group. Peru go into the tournament on a high after having Guerrero re-instated for the tournament and they could spring a surprise and sneak though in second. That all depends on if Bendtner is fit or not. A dominant victory over Russia that followed a big win over highly rated Poland show that the Danes can put in big performances when it matters. Whether they can go all the way really does depend on if Bendtner recovers from his knock, and can fish out his Paddy Power pants again.

This hasn’t been worth waking up for so far.

The grass seems to be slowing the ball massively, doesn't help at all.

Is this French team going to be another one of those national teams that is full of amazing players but not an amazing team? Similar to French and Dutch teams of the past.

Dreadful first half.
Not the first game where the grass has been questioned but it didn't have an effect last night with Spain zipping the ball around.

Surely if a few teams complain about it they’ll cut it down? Not like it benefits Russia or the tournament is it.

France will either go on a mad one now or it will be a 1-0 scrappy win

Didn’t realise Matty Ice was moonlighting in goal for the aussies during offseason.

That's certainly questionable.

Mark Lawrenson wants fucking off, the cunt is blind. Do you not think there was a touch then? It's definitely not as blatant as he made out it was but I'm sure I saw him flick the ball forward.
