A disappointing performance for Argentina, lots of fancy footwork but little end product. Maradona is on television articulating the despair of the nation after another group stage exit. The whole of Argentina cries for you.
Nicely to see Holland hoofing it up to big rapper. It's predictable and obvious, but it nearly always works. In lesser groups, this would be a shoe-in for the knockout stages. Sadly, we could be looking at another big-name upset here.
Cote D'Ivoire are stroking around very nicely in midfield, keeping possession, fluid, silky passing. A tidy performance and a comfortable win.
Sebria & Montenegro - do I hear the words DARK HORSES?! They'll win themselves few friends but many admirers with this sort of gritty, tenacious performance, just clinching victory with a stolen clarinet flourish in the 85th minute.
