finneys13 Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Slovakia -v- Paraguay Venue: Bloemfontein Referee: Eddy Maillet (Seychelles) Yeah, really Team News Both these sides let a lead slip in their opening game, although of the two teams Slovakia will be the most disappointed, having led against Group F outsiders New Zealand until the third minute of injury time. While the Slovaks claimed their first-ever World Cup point in Rustenburg, coach Vladimir Weiss described the draw as a "small sporting tragedy".Slovakia enjoyed plenty of possession against the All Whites but they struggled to break down Ricki Herbert's men, who defended in numbers and looked to mount occasional attacks from long balls and set pieces. It was a frustrating experience for the Slovaks, but they should at least be well prepared for the Paraguayans, who were similarly unambitious against Italy. The South Americans could have beaten the world champions had it not been for a goalkeeping error, but they offered little going forward. Paraguay's goal, a header from Wigan-bound defender Antolin Alcaraz, was their only effort on target in 90 minutes against the Azzurri. Don't expect coach Gerardo Martin to go for broke against Slovakia: "I don't think we need to win our next two games - draws may be sufficient to progress," he says. 'Mon Slovakia this time, had my fun last time watching your distressed faces Kiwi result was a killer, Slovakia really are not a bad team, they could easily get the result here the badily need. 2-1 I think to Slovakia.

PMLF Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 C'mon Paraguay, but I think the game can go either way. Paraguay's bigger experience in WCs might make the difference for them though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The goal it self was better, but the whole play of the Bendtners goal (long pass, good control, good pass to Bendtner) was fabulous as well imo.
