Considering it's never been held in Africa before anyway, it's not like they had an opportunity before.

Germany is winning :D My thoughts of the game when it is over :P
Thoughts of the game:
Marco Rodruiguez (ref) was not exaggerating with the red card, he just enforces the rules strictly, thing other refs don't do, which makes him look unfair. The rules state that any entrance by behind is red card.
Australia's defense was really weak, and when Cahill went out, it was even worse. Germany had more oportunities, the score could have been bigger, but a 4-0 is great. As Gary Linekin said, "Soccer is a game for 22 people that run around, and in the end Germany always wins"

Thank you based god
Algeria-Slovenia: Both the teams were way too cautious. After Algeria went a man down, the opportunity presented itself and Slovenia cashed in. Had Slovenia been more aggressive, they would've had at least one or two more goals. Chaouchi was awful in goal. He kept yelling at his players.
Serbia-Ghana: Great match to watch. It could've been much higher-scoring, but the keepers played well on both sides. Even without Essien and Muntari, Ghana's ability to win showed that they are a force to be reckoned with.
Germany-Australia: Germany dominated from the start behind strong performances from Klose and Podolski.
I guess losing Hiddink hurt Australia more than expected. They breezed through qualifying, yet they looked horrible. It looks like Germany and Ghana will advance, but Serbia could play Germany to a tie and then beat Australia. A tie and a loss from Ghana could give Serbia the opportunity to advance.
Tomorrow:
Netherlands-Denmark: Even without Robben, the Dutch should win. Kuyt will play very well. Still, "Olsen's Eleven" will keep this match close and possibly hold them to a draw.
Japan-Cameroon: Garlic, we all know Cameroon will win. Japan has been awful ever since they clinched their spot. They are inexperienced and will be outplayed by a strong Cameroonian team led by Eto'o.
Italy-Paraguay: Italy should win, but players like Valdez will come through in Salvador Cabanas' absence. The final will probably be around 2-0 Italy.
In Group F, Slovakia-Paraguay will determine who joins Italy in the Round of 16. New Zealand has no right being in South Africa, but Australia switching from OFC to AFC gave them the ticket to a two-leg playoff, and they were very lucky in drawing Bahrain over Saudi Arabia.
Serbia-Ghana: Great match to watch. It could've been much higher-scoring, but the keepers played well on both sides. Even without Essien and Muntari, Ghana's ability to win showed that they are a force to be reckoned with.

My thoughts on today's first 2 matches
Netherlands-Denmark
The key to Netherlands victory was the good passing they did during the match, their ground game, and keeping posession of the ball
Japan-Cameroon
Eto'o went unnoticed. Could have been more goals, but the posts saved some of them. Africa has been disappointing in my opinion, and Asia has been the surprise

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!! Italy ties :D
Damn, they tied >_> Anyway, since I now cant win lots of money, lets get to the game thoughts...
Italy started the World Cup the italian way. Not playing very good, with a low profile, but when no one expects it, they can win the World Cup.... It was a dirty game, especially on mid field.

That was an epic save by the Ivory Coast's goalie in the second quarter near the beginning.

Yeah, my thoughts on today's matches
Slovakia-New Zealand
C'mon, NZ doesn't play soccer. They play rugby or something else, you could see that in the coach. He didn't shout indications, he just sat there. But, sadly for Slovakia, they did the same as me, they underestimated the All-Whites, which lead to NZ tying the game in the aggregate time
Côte d'Ivorie-Portugal
Ok, the best team in Africa against the 4th place in the 06 World Cup, both have great offenses, one would expect goals, BUT NO!! THEY HAD TO TIE! GODDAMMIT!!!
Brazil-Korea
I didn't watch it, but the result surprised me. Seriously. Brazil may sturggle with CIV and Portugal
