It seems to be coming.
South Korea won against Greece 2-0.
Even Japan defeated Cameroon, my tip for best African performance, 1-0.
Can North Korea do it against Brazil? Highly unlikely though. Brazil is several notches higher than Greece and Cameroon, and North Korea doesn't seem to be as good as South Korea.
The biggest hope is without doubt South Korea, but following Japan's surprise win, there is now a good chance for them to progress to the next round.
Australia crashed to the biggest defeat of the tournament thus far, to Germany 0-4, but there are some who says Germany is benefiting because they are accustomed to playing with the ball in the Bundesliga having been introduced by sponsors, so on... we will see if the supposed advantage can lead them far, and there's a good chance we might even see Germany vs England right in the next round.
For now, the African teams are not really doing well despite huge fan support. They have to buck up in the next 2 group matches.
And what's an exciting match today?
