Germany wins… not unexpected, but it was great to see them play. AWESOME offense, even without Ballack.. defense is definately going to cause us some problems as we move on and play some teams considerably better than Costa Rica… but i’m cautiously optomistic having watched them play today.

Ecuador surprised me… I haven’t really followed either them or Poland, so didn’t know too much about either team, but I was assuming Poland would win the game handily… instead they got pretty much totally shut down. Bit of a boring game… but i can’t see either of these teams causing Germany any problems in the future, so it looks like Germany will cruise past the first round with no issues. Costa Rica played well, so looks like the most interesting game for the first round in this group will be Costa Rica v Ecuador…
