World Cup Fever

It's time for me to find my Oliver Kahn tshirt from the last World Cup and see if I can fit into it *laughs* It's been four years and it was already tight in certain areas the last time so I dunno if it will fit. Yes, was rooting for Germany the last time. And for this time round? A bit too early but yes, Germany is still ONE of the teams me rooting for.

Just came back from Sydney and amazing how many people were on the same flight with me. Only difference I was heading back home and getting ready to start work in a few days but they were headed to Germany to watch the many matches! Arrrggghhh!!! It's good to see how the Aussies are getting all excited about soccer considering that rugby and cricket have been the main games played there but thanks to the Socceroos, soccer is becoming very popular there. A friend did mention that half of the players on the Aussie team are made up of Europeans but who cares right? As long as they can play why not :o)

They are getting alot of support from home with many people waving the flag. The flag was given out by the Sydney Morning Herald and you can spot many car owners fixing these cute flags on their cars to show support for the Socceroos. Good on them! :o)


The Australian team is also another newbie like the Americans. Didn't think very much of how the Americans play at the last world cup but hey, they put up a brave fight and that's a good start. Am hoping that the Aussie team will move ahead and have some good matches. As to which other teams I'm rooting for...well it's a bit too early to take sides for now *laughs*
