I don't know much about football but the Japanese are great at industry, sushi, motorbikes etc. so they're probably great at football too!
Yay - I was right :)

'twould appear that Uruguay (my allocated team) are heading home, perhaps due to the lack of support they received from me - I never watched any of their games. :oops:
