Portugal-North Korea
Edited on Sun Jun-20-10 11:34 PM by Renew Deal
We'll see if Portugal's offense can break out against North Koreas all out defense. North Korea will be eliminated with a loss.

1. It have flown to South Africa to see this match if Gim Jeong-il had attended
and I could have seen him blowing one of those horns

One thing that will make this match (and Cup) special -- the fans are Chinese paid to be the PDK supporters

2. North Korea seems to be getting the better of play (22')
I think the rain does help the North

3. Talk about coming unglued
I think France could beat North Korea (OK, maybe tie)

4. Dang. Now I'm looking forward to Portugal-Brasil.
Brasil barely eeked out two goals against North Korea. Hmmm.

5. I wonder if they will play that hard.
They have a historical connection, so they are better off with a tie. Both teams would go through.

7. It's possible, but if Portugal thinks it can win, it may push.
Ending up top in the group would make the path easier for Portugal. It probably doesn't matter with Brasil.
