First Day is over!!

Okay everyone, what a game the opening game! I was lucky enough to take a 2 hour lunch break ;-)

Costa Rica had few chances and they knew how to break the german defense. Actually Paulo Wanchope (picture) had the impresive speed and the tranquility to make 2 goals.

We only had Frank Fossati betting on tie, and nobody dare to give Costa Rica a win. "Las Miryams" wanted to see a lot of action, as Jorge and Fabrizio hoping for Germany to achieve a goal difference of 3...but then again, How dare the Germans play off-side to Wanchope's amazing speed.

At the end, "Los Humbertos", Valerie and myself got all the good 4 points with the amazing German gol from 40 meters!!

And then Poland...

Maybe we should let this guy play for Poland!

Ecuador's best goal keeper...the poles!! ...no, not 2 Poles (Polish dude)...I am talking about the 2 shots to the goal that met the rounded piece of wood sorrounding the Ecuatorian keeper.

Anyways, Only Daniel Zeballos and Miryam Tejada dare to bet on Ecuatorians to win; but they thought it was going to be with 1 goal difference, I don't blame them ;-), lucky for the rest of us!

"Los Humbertos" were going for a tie...In many chances they almost got their 2 points...but no, Ecuador kept them away from ending the day with 6 points ;-)

Anyways, the day finished only giving away 4 points for the "Japas" group...let's see what happens tomorrow.

Ah yes, the best players, voted by many are below...
