    Everyone in the pub? Maybe nobody cares about this one but I would be dissappointed if we missed a game thread during the WC. One thing we haven't had yet is an upset in this years event. Probably won't have one here either but it would make the game more interesting if Angola could score.

    Fairly awful so far, not much really happening.

    need mexico to win for my bet but would like to see at least one african team win a game.

    0-0 at half time, apparantly Mexico all went into a huddle at half time near the centre circle as Angola walked off - I guess they feel they should be doing better.

    I'm in work listening on beeb 5 :(

    I find Mexico a very boring team to watch, in fact this group has been pretty boring so far.

    It's a pity this is the evening game and the Argentina game had to missed by most. guess thats the way the cards fall.

    Has just been a lack lustre affair. Even the Marquez freekick off the post was lacking.

    Yeah, I've seen every game now bar Tunisia - Saudi Arabia and this is certainly ranking as one of the worst. The two Poland games have been just as bad as the Group B games.

    The Angolan goalkeeper. Wasn't nearly as funny as they made it out to be. Just slagging the fact that he could make a good save and then on the next shot jump past the ball.

    I enjoyed that.

    Angola to thump Iran 3-0 as Portugal beat Mexico and they play Argentina in the next round! :D

    It was just one of those times you can't help yourself laughing. Fair play to Souness for actually getting a reply back as Giles was in bits.:D
