What a week!

I have not updated the blog for the last week. But for the worldcup 2010, so many things happened. Let talk about the France team. So happening in that team. First, they loss to Mexico. Then, Mr.Anelka was sent home by the FFF, because of his "words exchanged" with Mr. D. More to come was that their captain lead his team to boycott the training session. huh......Is this unusual to be happened now? Maybe after the last group match today, they can all back to their home.
For Germany who loss to Serbia also look like ridiculous~I think the referee awarded so many yellow cards within the first half an hour of the match. Foul, yellow, foul, yellow....till Klose had been awarded the second yellow inside the first half. Then something happened in the second half. The player from M.U. Mr. Vidic, raise his hand high for a slightly touch on the ball in penalty box(without any dangerous situation). Dramatically, Podolski of Germany failed to score from the penalty kick. What a match!Is it this is a script???

Korea and Argentina Won! England draw with USA

The Korean played well yesterday and Park Ji Sung got a goal where Korea defeated Greece by 2-0. Greece only had few chances and they were not in the game. The Korean had more chances and their attacks far more dangerous than their opponent. If lucky, korea may win by 4-0. Korea now leading Group B with 3 points together with Argentina who also won their match yesterday to Nigeria 1-0. G.Heinze headed in the winner. Messi with few chances but can't defeat the Nigerian goalkeeper who had some excellent saves throughout the match.

For the match between England and USA, England was forced to a 1-1 draw by a blunder from Green. Dempsey shot straight to Green but the goalkeeper deflected the ball into his own net. I am so surprise why in such a big stage i can still see such a mistake. This is not EPL. haha.... this is a fate or a curse of England????

NBA and Tennis

For the NBA final, Celtics tied 1 - 1 with Lakers. R.Allen make it a 7 straight 3-pointer, unbelievable. Not to forget is R.Rondo. He is the most important player for celtics in this year championship. He got a triple double. His performance help celtics defeated the cleveland and Magics. He has the potential for the Final-MVP. Celtics has the chance to win the NBA championship. What do you think?

Nadal is back to his best. I think he won the France Open without losing a single set. R. Soderling can't do anything because on that day Nadal is too strong for him. Next is the Wimbledon, Nadal sure has the chance to add one more grand slam under his name. He will be seeded no. 1 i think. He is the new world no.1.

Roger Federer lost to Robin Soderling in the quarter final of France Open

Ooh....they will not have Roger vs Nadal in the final. Roger threw some great chances to break in Soderling service game. The game between them was suspended because of rain in the third set when they tied as 5-5. The match carried on after 75 minutes.
Soderling will next face Berdych in the semi-final.
Do you think Nadal will have a chance to revenge for his lost to Soderling in the final?

England announces the 23 players who will be going to South Africa

The final squad of England for worldcup 2010: Robert Green, Joe Hart, David James, Jamie Carragher, Ashley Cole, Rio Ferdinand, Glen Johnson, Ledley King, John Terry, Matthew Upson, Stephen Warnock, Gareth Barry, Michael Carrick, Joe Cole, Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard, Aaron Lennon, James Milner, Shaun Wright-Phillips, Peter Crouch, Jermain Defoe, Emile Heskey, Wayne Rooney.

Is it there any surprise? From the past friendly and some comments made, first i thought Wright-Phillips may be left out. But the coach and management decided to pick him rather then Walcott. I think this is a blow for Walcott. Another surprise is Warnock. He didn't play any friendlies but he is included. I think most of people will think that L.Baines should be going to South Africa.
Share your thought of the England final squad.

Nadal and Djokovic in last eight!

Nadal was in a very good condition now. Yesterday he marched into last eight of France Open in straight sets won against Belluci. Next he will face Almagro who defeated Verdasco in the last match. I think probably Nadal has no problem to get through to semi-final.
Djokoviv dropped a set to defeated Ginepri in a match yesterday.He will face Melzer in the next round.If he goes into semi-final, then there will be a big match for him. His opponent will probably be Nadal.
In the women event, Henin was ousted by Stosur. S.Williams and Jankovic both through to the quarter final.

Federer storms into quarter-final of France Open 2010

I watched few plays in the match between Federer and Wawrinka, and Federer looked great and comfortable. The shots placing were more accurate and he hits it with more power. I think he has the chance to meet Nadal again in the final. In the last eight, he will face Soderling. That will be a difficult match. Soderling plays very consistent nowaday. He serves well and can hit the ball with a lot of power. Last year, Soderling was the guy who stopped Nadal in the France Open. Could he do the same to the world's number 1 this year?

France 1 - 1 Tunisia

France can go how far in the worldcup 2010?
Tunisia only took 5 minutes to take the lead in the match. France took control of the match but they face difficulty to break the wall of defence of Tunisia. Finally, France back in level term in the 62nd minute. Goal by Gallas saved the France from defeat.
France is in group A together with home country South Africa, Uruguay and Mexico. Do you think France can qualify to the last 16?

England 2 - 1 Japan

England won against Japan by 2 goals to 1. All the three goals came from 2 japenese players. England won, but with a poor performance.
Last few days in newspaper i read, many of coach or football star think that England will be a big threat in the coming world cup. But from the match yesterday, to win the world cup England still got a lot of works to do.
The first-half was dull. Not created many chances. I feel that Walcolt and Lennon can done better. They didn't really help or create chance for Rooney and Bent to have a look on goal. A.Cole played well to support in the left side.
The second half saw Stevie, J.Cole, Wright-Phillips, Carragher and hart came in to the field. Stevie and Joe brought a lot of energy to the team. Some delightful passing between Stevie and Rooney make the match more interesting in the next 45-minutes. Lampard misses a penalty but fortunately 2 own goals by Japanese players gave the victory to England team. One was a cross suppplied by Joe Cole, and the second own goal was assisted by A.Cole. Japan played well in the match. They cut-down a lot of passes created by England's players. In the second half, Joe Hart make 2 or 3 important save to keep England in the match. Would he be the first choice goalkeeper?
