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?
