10.30 This site went down just now, well now it is up, I will continue with the updates. Ecuador beats Croatia 1-0, Mexico draws with Italy 1-1. Italy scored a number of goals, but the offside flag is raised before that. Haha. For group G, Mexico and Italy got into the 2nd rounds, tomorrow will be the last day for group matches, after that, all matches will be in a knock-out mode.
16.30 Watched the match between Costa Rica and Brazil, Costa Rica did very well, but Brazil was better, 3rd goal by Edmilson was simply fantastic, very exciting matches, as usual Brazil played a very clean game, or should I say all the while? With only 6 fouls for the team throughout the match. In the other match, Turkey trash China 3-0. For group C, Brazil and Turkey got into the 2nd round. Brazil is the second team to have 9pts.
21.30 Updated the stats, for group B, Spain and Paraguay make it to the second round. In non world cup news, CS 1.5 and HL 1.1.1.0 is out. For those CS freaks, get on to CS Nation or paGn to get the files.
16:25 Oh my god, Argentina is out of the world cup after drawing with Sweden, Argentina played very well, but they just dont’t have the luck to win the match, on the other hand, Sweden is very lucky and their defense is very good. The only goal by Sweden in the match was from a very beautiful free kick. This year is really wierd, top teams like France, Argentina, Holland didn’t even make it to the quarter finals. Wonder what more surprises are installed for us.
Sad, but true, France is out of the World Cup 2002. In summary, Denmark and Senegal got into the 2nd round for group A. For group E, Germany and Ireland went through to the 2nd round.
Group A – 2nd Round
-Denmark
-Senegal Group E – 2nd Round
-Germany
-Rep. of Ireland
Didn’t catch any of the matches today, went to watch ET at Cineleisure Orchard, bought 2 FourSkin t-shirts at Hereen, reached home at around 8.45pm. Finally Portugal is back on her form, trashing Poland 4-0 with a hat-trick by Pauleta. Hmmm, tomorrow 4 matches and no 5pm match. 2 matches at 2.30pm and 2 at 7.30pm.

Went out to pray in the morning, then went to Liang Court to eat Swensens for my lunch, bought a Levis jeans, come back home and almost sleep the whole day LOL.
*Warcraft III News* Read yesterday papers about an advertisment regarding the launch of Warcraft III:Reign Of Chaos at Funan on 1st July 2002 organised by Gaming.Starhub. And on Gaming.Starhub Warcraft III Channel, there is a countdown timer to 1st July 2002 where Warcraft III will be launched. Price is estimated at S$56.70 for the normal box, wonder how much will the limited edition box cost?
21:23 2nd 1/2 of the match a bit boring, only 1 and only goal from Ronaldo, fair or rather clean game played, only 20 fouls and 3 free kicks. I wanted to see more Carlos trademark freekick and goals, but nevertheless, China did a good job.
20:20 Yay, Brazil is leading by 3 goals, score at half-time Brazil(3)-China(0), the first goal by Carlos is definitely superb, very excellent free-kick. Carlos lives up to his name.
Missed the first 2 matches of the day, went to eat Tim Sum at World Trade Center then went to Jurong Point to look around. Rushed back to catch the last match, I must say that the match is the best match so far, clashed of the titans, but in the end wasted, David Beckham scored the only goal of the game through a penalty kick. What an exciting match!
Went out to shopping so missed all the matches, today matches are really disappointing, Portugal lost to USA 2-3, Germany drew with Ireland 1-1, Portugal and Germany are both strong teams, and they should have won, but guess that the ball is round, yet another France – Senegal game, where the least expected team wins. Hope tomorrow matches will be better.

Watched the 1st match of the day, I must say that it is quite boring, that is why I only watched the first half of the match, but at least China did made some improvements, they just lacked experience. Eager for the match between Brazil and China this Saturday(8th June 2002) 7.30pm.
Woot, the 2nd half of the match between Japan and Belgium is exciting, the Japan team is like going for a fashion, the hair is golden and some even red. LOL, Japan is good I must say.
