FIFA

I've watched about 5 games now so far.. and by far must say that the best one to this point has been Ghana Vs Italy! Woo what a game that was! Excitement and heartbreak, if you just caught the score you'd see that Italy won 2-0. The 2nd goal was sad and reminded me of what happens to the Toronto Maple Leafs at times. Eddie Belfour loves playing out of his net and so did Ghana's net keeper.

Here's how some FIFA analysts called the game:

This is the kind of football people like to see. There were many opportunities at either end, an open game with chances for both teams.

It was open game, not a tactical one which was a surprise to me. Italy are not used to playing like that, they often let teams come to them and play, then when they have the ball it is difficult to get it off them.

The reason it was an open game was that Ghana played like Brazil, when they had the ball they wanted to do something with it all the time. Perhaps Ghana need two strikers like Italy, if they had operated with a front two we may have seen a different game.

However, both teams had a lot of chances and it was an enjoyable game. This was one of the games where the football was there for all to see.
