Argentina , Argentina!!!!

Its Day 12 of the world Cup, and overall its been a pretty good world cup. Great goals from day 1 (remember Frings), surprising performances (Ecuador, Ghana, South Korea, Spain ), and some major disappointments(England, France, Brazil).

But the main theme of this post is to pay tribute to one of the best team performances i have seen in a long time, " Argentian Vs Serbia Montenegro ". True its early days yet and they(Serbia) were not one of the top sides in the world. But what was never in doubt was that you were watching a special performance , This was how we expected Brazil to pay, magnificent passing , running of the ball , back heels , delicate flicks and perhaps most importantly clinical finishing!!! Can't remember the last time when ninety mminutes seemed to whiz by in a blur! So inspiring that you had a flag waving maradona in the stands going Ole, Ole and Ar-gen-tina, Ar-gen-tina, Ar-gen-tina!!

So for the rest of the cup all i'm hoping for is some more inspired Argentinian play, hopefully more teams will step up!!!

Imagine the Argentinaian Salsa against the Brazilian Samba, or vs the Netherland and their 90's version "total football" .... something to savour...hope the football gods will not disappoint !
