Jun. 22nd, 2010 10:01 pmI got to see the second half of Argentina v Greece. Mostly Greece need new strikers and Argentina could have done with Cambiasso.
But all of that pales into insignificance every time I see Maradonna. It's great when the ball goes out anywhere near him and he kicks it. He's still got more ball control skills than most of the players out there. And he's so tiny. And oh, I know I shouldn't like Argentina, and I don't rate Messi as highly as I should, and if they come up against Italy I shall curse his name up into the hills, but oh, his face. So happy.
On more sensible and less squeaky ground, the BBC have done my work for me and put up the possible permutations for the groups - http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/world_cup_2010/8753285.stm
Mostly I'm going to be spending the Italy match crossing my fingers.
