Ghana's the team I drew in the office sweepstakes so the US chances are high

They've changed their system from how they played in qualifying, and clearly it isn't working for them.

Keep going BH! Argentina need to step it up.

Bosnia giving it a go, but it was always going to be an uphill task.

It's almost funny that they are still going on about it on the radio, and no matter how many times he's told it worked Pat Nevin keeps trying to make it into an issue.

The Honduras goal has a charmed life so far. *edit* and it's all kicked off, literally. France lucky not to be down to 10.

That's a first. No anthems before the start.

Wow, it's a harsh game sometimes.

This would be the same best English midfielder of all time who said before the World Cup that Rooney was past his best but doubted that the England management would be brave enough to drop him. The best bit about the England goal was the pass from Sterling. The cross was decent, but no more...

Nothing. Rooney is just woefully out of form at the moment. And they do need to cut the deadwood but the media (and the FA who need the shirt sales) would throw a fit.

At least my 25-1 bet on Italy to win the Cup isn't dead yet

England have about two thirds of a good young team but the defence is shaky and Rooney just doesn't seem to fit in with the rest of them. At least they gave it a good effort this time.

e We have a game on

Well that's that for this game. Italy will stick to Campbell like glue on Thursday.

Are they going to risk Suarez? May not have a choice

Looking even better now ?? Uruguay losing their cool a bit

This could get entertaining. Costa Rica take no prisoners

Tough on Australia, but that's what Chile should have done ages ago: shoot long range instead of trying to pass through ten men

Never a dull game with Chile. They do suffer from the old Arsenal disease of preferring to pass instead of shoot

Chile getting careless.

Well done Aussies for sticking with it.

Time for Chile to shine

Someone get me a time machine so I can go place a bet on the score

Whoever comes second plays Brazil and the referee next round

Oh dear oh dear. Holland in heaven right now

Wow last night that would be disallowed...

Unlucky Persie

If Costa caught him there he's very lucky to be on the pitch

Brilliant header

Spain living dangerously at the back

Dutch should have scored there

Very disappointed in Cameroon apart from their goalkeeper

Some hefty challenges in this game. If they do that against Brazil these sides will be down to 8 men And good goal

Another terrible decision...

It's a legitimate concern, as plenty of the early backers on the forums seem to be of the opinion that adding complexity to a game can only make it better. The designers do try to go through the complexity vs. fun discussion with the players, for example: Ship Management ?Hello, Bomb? Are you...

Fingers crossed, although... Looking forward to Spain v Holland, and hoping everyone keeps their studs to themselves this time and try to stay on their feet and play!

Docking is fine once you get used to it, it just takes a bit of practice, and depending on where you start, it's all done in less than a minute. A docking computer will do it all for you on "civilised" stations, but it will be slower - no cutscene AFAIK, you get to watch your ship do the...

I can imagine the outcry if a dodgy bounce in the penalty area where the pitch is at its worst affects the outcome. I'm not sure if it's better to play on it first (England v Italy) or later (US v Portugal), depends if they can fix it inbetween games because if not it will be in really sorry...

"If that's how we start the World Cup, we better give it up now and go home. We talk about respect, that wasn't respect, Croatia didn't get any. If that's a penalty, we don't need to play football anymore. Let's play basketball instead. It's a shame. If you continue like this you will have...
