So for the first four days of the world cup, there were surprises and disappointments. Brazil won from Croacia 1×0, shooting sharply to each other except to the goal, Croacians were agressive but were disorganized.

Americans lost a terrible shameful loss, to the Czech Republic! 3×0 to the republic. The American team was too slow and were playing out of synch between its teamates.

Tunisia and Saudi Arabia had a weak game and ended up 2×2. I guess they understand each other's game, even in the field.

I think the best team I have seen playing so far was Italy, they have very fast players and Spain, a surprise this time.

Iran lost to Mexico...that game was a party!

There is the Serbia-Montenegro team that just a week ago the region voted to become independent countries...but in this world cup, it is one team playing together. Interesting!

Sunday, from what I see in the schedule has good games, just need to wake up early!

Here at home, I watch the games-alone-and one time I screamed loudly while feeding my child that he cried...I remember now, this world cup, I am also a mommy, gotta watch my outbursts!

Back in Brazil, my brother was working while listening to the game in his radio. He said Sao Paulo's streets looked like a ghost town on a weekday. We talked about back in the days when all of us cheered the teams together in 1994's world cup. Those were sweet, carefree days!

Sunday, I will be ready with my yellow and green soccer team shirt, my kids will be wearing yellow and green soccer clothing...along with my Brazilian and American friends ;-)

Have a great weekend everyone!
