Played some lovely stuff against Italy last week. Nice and fluent stuff.

Story of the World Cup really. Sure a lot of Greek fans couldn't get into their opening game for some reason or another.

Couldn't tell you mate. Have only been watching on RTE.

MementoMori

Slovakia were decent enough the last day too.

I think Motty was commentating on some match -can't remember which was flicking

redout

The Slovaks were pure muck against the men from middle earth.

Everytime the defence was under pressure they looked highly suspect.

They were also quite poor aerially - money on Paraguay but this tournament you wouldnt know!

Motty is commentating this year, he retired after Euro 08

That_Guy

Lovely strike. Paraguay playing some great stuff in the centre.

Necronomicon

Wow, what a classy finish.

That_Guy

Lovely stuff.

JerryHandbag

Oh lovely finish.

HoPpiE

Excellent finish.

Jagera

Yes, a classy, lovely, lovely, excellent finish.

Mr. Guappa

Lovely goal and well deserved too. Paraguay have been by far the better side so far.

DB10

Brilliant goal. If only people would use the outside of the boot more with this ball, it would result in alot of those goals.

He was on MOTD one night as an analyst, speaking of the new experience of not working as a commentator at a World Cup.

That Barrios is a quality player

That_Guy

Santa Cruz..... Close.

Yet he was able to say the word "Conundrum". Fair play to him

His English is good, he just speaks quickly.

I thought the game would open up with Slovakia needing a goal but it's been poor, they don't look capable of opening Paraguay up.

Closed ac

Not a great match so far..

IvySlayer

Is Hamsik playing? Haven't seen much!

skelliser

Who is that co-commentator? Absolutely ****

Mars Bar

On RTE? it's Gabriel Egan and Damien Richardson so I presume you're talking about Gabriel Egan...

argosy2006

some crap teams at this world cup,
paraguay are decent, a great outside bet to win it :eek:
i think every world cup should have a place for a '' rest of the world side' made up of players who didnt qualify with their countries, and managed by someone like wenger or fergie, :eek:

_Bella_

Paraguay score!

argosy2006

stuck it away nicely

skelliser

Ya Gabriel Egan, does he commentate on loi? Should stay there cause he is absolutely rubbish

What a load of crap. He is Argentinian you know?

His English is very good seeing as it's his second language.

Having an accent, that is still clearly understandable does not make your English bad.

Wonder how your Spanish is?

Raekwon

Slovakia look absolute muck, they will be trounced by the Italians on Thursday and rightfully sent packing.

Ireland should have no trouble home or away against them IMO, sure in the Euro qualifiers we beat them at home and they scored in the dying seconds away to make it 2-2 and that was in the very forgetful Staunton reign.

Captain-America

Yeah, Ardiles is very hard to understand. No mater how good he is he really shouldn't be there if he's that hard to understand.

Paraguay almost through. Hopefully we get more of this so:
