World Cup Day 5

More of the same.

Group F
Slovakia 1 - 1 New Zealand

A very good draw for New Zealand who gained their first ever World Cup point. Just to show how far New Zealand have come, their number one goalkeeper in 1998 couldn'tget a place in t the Stalybridge Celtic first team.

Group G
Portugal 0 - 0 Ivory Coast
Brazil 2 - 1 Korea DPR

Despite all the talent on show and the world's most expensive footballer to date, both teams seemed too afraid to lose their first game, to go for a win.
Goals from Maicon and Elano ensure that Brazil get off to a winning start. North Korea however played well above expectation and actually managed to get a goal back towards the end.
