I was amazed at the second goal for Neuer to get beaten at his near post. Looked like he got his angle wrong as he looked like he thought it was going wide. Cracking performance by Japan who ran their socks off :thumbup:

If Spain manage to turn over "Ze Germans" then its Auf Weidersehen in the group stage for the 2nd world cup in a row :shock:

Had to turn the Spain game off as the microphone was picking up a little girl sat nearby who's constantly screaming and shrieking.

Plan A - Put some cheese in your ears.
Plan B- Stop making girls scream and shriek.
