My apologies for quoting something from the shitrag that is the daily mail but...

Sepp Blatter has asked that the horns are not blown during the pre-match playing of national anthems and FIFA have warned that if just one is thrown on the field of play during the tournament then they will be banned from future venues.

Someones gonna have to take one for the team and hoy a trumpet onto the pitch.

Preach PWA!!!

Game on!!!

 

[ningnangnong]

Those vulva horns or whatever they're called, are doing my head in.

 

[Clintos]

I reckon. I put my TV on mute, but then decided it's much more interesting with commentary.

Hopefully someone throws one onto the pitch.

 

[ningnangnong]

We can only dream. This match has been pretty open so far, could be a few goals in it.

 

[Beachy]

David Basheer and Kevin Muscat in commentary though ... Fark me

 

[Clintos]

Great save there.

 

[ningnangnong]

South Africa's defence has been non-existent, they're giving Mexico way too much time and room.

That said, South Africa do look threatening on the break.

Been a pretty entertaining match so far, better than I expected.

 

[The Brizz]

Man Mexico look composed on the ball, as always I love the way they play. Giovani Dos Santos is a weapon!
