South Korea 2-0 Greece (Gp B) Sat 12 Jun 12:30pm

Second of today's matches.

Couldn't call this one. I'd go with Greece, perhaps?

Isn't it at 12:30 pm or something?

The Argetina-Nigeria game is at 3, I think.

Not sure who would win this game but I'd like to see Korea with it because they're asians Not that I'm racist or anything but because my nation's not in the World Cup! Would like Japan to go far as well but not so much for North Korea

I think the Argentina game is 12:30 mate.

I've forgotten what your nation is? Malaysia?

I think the Argentina game is 12:30 mate.

I've forgotten what your nation is? Malaysia?

Yeah, Malaysia. I really think I won't see them in the World Cup throughout my life time

This one is the 12.30 lads.

Argentina at 3.

Anyone actually going to watch this one?

Think I might.

Anyone actually going to watch this one?

Think I might.

Might just have it on in the background whilst on here/having my lunch or something.

I'll be watching this on my phone in town. Come on the Kyrg!

Mad where technology has taken us.

Forgot about the beast. Go on lad.

Hope Sotis does well, but i've got South Korea in a Sweep stake SO......

There will be some goals in this one I have predicted 2 - 2

Sotis isn't starting.

I have South Korea in our sweep so I am rooting for them. Bet this is a highly entertaining game, it's looks like a rubbish game on paper but it's th World Cup.

Should be a close game.

Might just have it on in the background whilst on here/having my lunch or something.

Exactly. Think I'm going to play Age of Empires 3 while hearing the commentary.

That Ref is a ringer for Howard Webb.

Bloody disrespectful they keep blowing those damn things during the national anthems.

Bloody disrespectful they keep blowing those damn things during the national anthems.

Same as Booing IMHO

No Sotis for Greece.

Bloody disrespectful they keep blowing those damn things during the national anthems.

I agree mate but it's not just the South Africans that are blowing them, the camera was going around the stadium and the supporters of Greece and South Korea were blowing them in there hundreds.

Thats a shock! 1-0 S.Korea

Another wrong prediction for me

South Korea are not a bad team to be fair, that marking was worse than some of our zonal marking calamaties.

Well, that's my prediction in the toilet!

Another wrong prediction for me

Can you check your predictions on the prediction league mate?

South Korea had had the same preperations as when Hiddink managed them. Hiddink is one of our commentators, he expects them to excel in their physical condition, endurance, workrate etc.

Can you check your predictions on the prediction league mate?

Yeah, ofcourse you can. You can even check everybody elses. You'll need to login though.

Who scored for Korea?!

I was making lunch

Well, that's my prediction in the toilet!

Same

Samaras looks so much like Morientes, it's scary.

Who scored for Korea?!

I was making lunch

I dont know, but I would say possibly someone called Lee.



EDIT: Livescore says: "Jung-Soo Lee scores."

I think there are at least 3 Lee's in the team.

Jung-Soo Lee:

World Cup 2010 Korea 1-0 Greece(Jung-Soo Lee)12.06.10

I went for 1-1

Cheers, Diego. I will just wait for half time so I can watch the highlights from the first 15 minutes.

Thanks, Dexter!

I think Korea have got some decent players in Park Ji-Sung, Lee Chung-Yong and Ahn Jung-Hwan.

I dont know, but I would say possibly someone called Lee.



EDIT: Livescore says: "Jung-Soo Lee scores."

I think there are at least 3 Lee's in the team.

There are 6 Kims on the bench too.

Can you check your predictions on the prediction league mate?

Slightly confused. I just checked and I went 1-0 to Greece.

Now, if you were asking me, then I'd say yes you can.

That wasn't a foul

Some decisions at the biggest competition in the international stage are astonishing.

South Korea's gonna win this.

The Greeks should bring Sotis on, he'll sort out the defence.

The Greeks should bring Sotis on, he'll sort out the defence.

Yeah, I came on to say "Sotis would definitely have dealth with that corner". 

 

Cant wait for half-time.





I need to have breakfast!

Same here Diego

I can't wait for half time because I need a Poo.

Greece look the same uninspired team of always, just happen that their crosses are not working this time so far! Also they should've defended better in that free kick. Where is Sotis?

Korea always surprise me when they show some quality with the ball, especially with fast counter attack which has been their main strenght in this game. Since 2002 they seem to be a completely different country when it comes to football.

Now its time for breakfast

Getting confused here. Are both South and North Korea in the competition?

Korea are looking half decent actually. Fairly comfortable 1-0 lead they hold at the moment.

Korea look decent going forward but that's only because Greece keep switching off. Greece lokking really, really unimpressive actually. Entertaining match. I also, although the Scottish commentator on ITV disagrees with me here, thought that Korea should've had a penalty.

Been watching Torosidis and it's just opened up my mind a bit really regarding our problems with the left-back position.

We keep weighing up left-footed options but perhaps we'd be better off going for a player like Torosidis who's right-footed but capable of playing both full-back spots?

If Sotis was in the side, they wouldn't of conceded that goal.

Korea tearing their midfield apart. So much space and it should be more than 1-0.

Come on Korea though. Tipped them to win 2-1. Not sure what I put in the prediction league but hopefully the same as what I did in another comp.

Getting confused here. Are both South and North Korea in the competition?

Yes. North Korea in Group G, with Brazil, Portugal and Ivory Coast.

South Korea playing really well.

Terrible decision to give a foul against Park, no doubt he would have slotted that chance if the ref got it right.

And how come Sotis isn't playing?

Greece are really weird, they rely so much on crosses and long balls that they always seem to have a lot of players getting inside the box, sometimes too soon - so when they lose the ball, Korea has a lot of space to counter attack, which happened a few times. Even their wingers are tall, Samaras on the left looks so out of place Maybe that's because he's the Greek Morientes.

What a fantastic goal that is.

Ahhhhhh credit to Park there, quality. Top class. Loved that.

2-0 S.Korea

How did Greece even qualify? They look awful

Most other manc players would have gone down and took the penalty and red card.

Greece took off Karagounis for a defensive midfielder just to let Korea score the 2nd! Good stuff by Park, but terrible mistake in defence.

Greece's playing style is much too old fashioned and rigid. Think Rehhagel can take most of the blame there, he always makes the team play uninspired football. Even when they won the Euro 2004 they played some abysmal football.

Rehhagel said they're strengths are defence, being compact and their team knew how to play with each other.

Hate to hear what their weaknesses are.

Why is Samaras playing what looks like left-mid. Pretty sure he's a striker?

Yeah Greece is a hard team to watch

Jesus. Go Korea!!

F***ing hell this Greek team needs to be put down.

The kind of football Greece have been playing in the last 10 minutes is what I expected them to do from the start, they're finally looking dangerous but I think it's too late now.

Yes, these  South Koreans all have nick names, this ones is the "Vacuum Cleaner" as he likes to tidy up.... what a load of F***ing sh*te.

Greece never scored a goal in the World Cup

Desperate pleas.

It was always going to be an offside and always never going to be a penalty.

Greece never scored a goal in the World Cup

Why do you sound so surprised? To be fair they've only been in 1 previous World Cup. US of A '94.

Off topic but the adidas boots with the yellow stripes are beautiful.

Thought Basinas and Ninis would start actually.

Why do you sound so surprised? To be fair they've only been in 1 previous World Cup. US of A '94.

Oh I didnt know that But I guess you're right, I shouldnt be surprised considering the kind of football they play.

Gekas almost scored their 1st now!

All I can say is "Ελλάδα είναι σκατά"

Thought Basinas and Ninis would start actually.

Basinas is horrible. Got nothing. Ninis should of come on at some stage though. Deinitely has quality on the ball abd Greece haven't had that all game.

I know Basinas is sh*t but I'm sure he usually plays. Actually, isn't he usually their captain?

All I can say is "Ελλάδα είναι σκατά"

Hahahahaha god one.

FT South Korea 2-0 Greece. The Greek should stick to philosophy.

First win of the World Cup

And I got all my predictions wrong so far
