*phew* sorry for delayed post. Been having a bit of a time trying to track down a dress, shoes, fascinator and fake tan for Ascot this weekend. Oh yeah, I am still having a life alongside all this World Cup blah.
Two interesting things I learnt over the last couple of days.
1. The ball that is being used (which has a name like Kalua or something) is THE roundest and THE lightest ball that has ever been used in a FIFA world cup. It's made by Adidas and they, controversially, gave it to the German premier league (ausgezeichnet!) who played with it for, like, a year or something. THAT'S SO UNFAIR! No bloody wonder they smashed whoever it was 4-0.
2. Spain lost to the Swiss in an unexpected giant killing! WCFAC says "This is massive. They were the European champions and favourite to win. There side is LOADED with the world's best players and Switzerland have never beaten them." World class commentary from @fletcheatsmovies in my humble opinion. My interpretation of what he said is "It was a bit of a shocker".
WCFAEMA (World Cup friend and eMarketing Assistant) added "No team that's ever lost their first game has gone on to win the World Cup". Brilliant! Does that mean my sweepstake team Algeria are in with a chance?!! MAYBE!!! w00t.
