The Paraguayans could atleast grab their head where there was contact! Cheats.

I wish Smeltz wouldnt drop so deep, if he stays high it stops their wide backs getting forward

Let them take those shots all day, we've kept them out of the box well.

Glad to see the ref picked Killen up for wearing one of those ridiculous hologram power bracelets.

1) The Paraguayan coach resembles Henry Kissinger's bastard Latino child.
2) Los Albirojas aren't nearly as good at diving as gli Azzuri.
3) LOL at Rory doing his damndest to jump without his elbows.
4) If we can't go through, keeping Italy out is almost as good.

So... how could we pep things up up front? Wee Mac on for Ivan?

Yeah, seems very pale and drawn. Lucky the game is a low intensity affair.
 
Paraguay are amazingly tentative - I think they really fear a shock result here. Also they don't have too much incentive to push forward now that Slovakia are leading. Awful game for the neutral!

If anyone had told you that it would be NZ pushing for a win and Paraguay playing negative football for a draw, you'd have called the men in white coats.

Sluggish game.....are Paraguay playing for a draw?
 
They seem to be content to knock it around and shoot from long range. There main emphasis is keeping lots of players back to snuff out any of our chances.
 
We will just hope we get a break....a bit of luck and nick a goal somehow. Leo,s looked good a couple of times but our midfield is getting overrun a bit.

So what's the equation?
 
If 0-0 in this game and 1-0 to Slavakia I assume the two who go through are Paraguay and Slovakia?

And as things stand Italy only require an equaliser against Slovakia and they'll pip us if we draw 0-0. So we must score.

If Italy score and its 1-1.....we still need a point to get equal to  Italy?

Bugger me.....just win the thing...it makes it easier to work out.
