WC 2006 Match Chat: Argentina vs. Serbia, et al., 6 am PT
2006-06-16 04:00
by Bob Timmermann

Live from Gelsenkirchen!

The second games of Group C get underway with favorite Argentina sitting in good shape with a win over Ivory Coast. Serbia, et al., lost to the Netherlands 1-0.

A win by the Argentines would pretty much assure them of a spot in the semis. But if the Serbs can pull of an upset, then the group gets very dicey.

National anthems:

Argentina, Himno Nacional Argentina. They weren't overly imaginative with that name.

Serbia, Hej Sloveni. That title translates into "Hey, Slavs!"

Wasn't Serbia supposed to have a good defense?

That was probably before they all started disliking one another.

That was very well-done by the Argentines on the second goal. This is going to be a beatdown.

The Serbs hate eachother? Didn't hear that one. I'm glad that Univision is going to be showing this game tonight.

There's not huge dissension, but the team wasn't happy that the coach put his son on the squad.

It's just like youth sports!

Serbia also has had injury problems.

Now it's just waiting around to see if Rodriguez can get a hat trick.
