Winning the first match in such a tough group was so important for Holland.
S&M sounds knky!!
Mexico 3-1 Iran
Ok, so I gave in and decided to watch the second-half!
.. after listening to the first and deciding that it wasn't a bad match.
Mexico were the better team overall. Iran had more of the match in the first-half, and converted one of their chances into an equaliser after Bravo (Bravo!!
) had given Mexico the lead. Mexico dominated the second-half, with Iran creating little in the way of an attacking move. However, it seemed as though Iran would be strong enough to hold out for a point, until a sloppy clearence from Iran's keeper set-up a chance for Bravo to put Mexico ahead. Spurred on by this, Mexico made it 3-1 several minutes later with a lovely header from Zinha. By then the Mexican coach looked a lot happier!!
I won't be watching Angola - Portugal.. but because I'm being kicked off the TV downstairs, and the TV in my room only picks up an arctic blizzard.
Winning the first game is the first step in getting to the next round. I thought the S&M players where kinda looking for the counter in the first half. Seemed like they wheren't too sad when they lost the ball to the Dutchies and didn't do much to get it back. Second half was pretty different, as the S&M players tried to keep the ball a little more. 
. But I will be checking online what happens.
