Now after I looked in depth at my family history I found out I have nothing to do with Asia at all. Well I have family that live in Australia but that don’t count apparently according to Willoughby.

Now I am going to look at the world cup through the eyes of someone from Asia. So that is four teams. Australia, Japan, South Korea and the legends themselves North Korea. Each team so far has played in the cup with only half the sides winning. I will give you now a little depth of the each side and how they played so far.

First up Australia….

Now they had a really good show in qualifying. They jumped into the Asia grouping after they moved from the Oceania groupings and by god they did well. They only let in one goal the whole time and were unbeaten the whole way through their group. So to me that is very impressive. Yet it came to their first match in group D against Germany and all the goals that were never to be in qualifying. Got them all in one with a shocking 4-0 defeat which I feel they completely deserve it. It was a poor show and Cahill got sent off yes for something silly but it could have been dangerous.

Second Japan…

Now they have never won a game outside of their home country of well Japan. Now in their qualifying group they finished as the runner up to the group and showed a good show throughout. Then it came to the finals. What would they do? Fail all the games? No score a goal? Or actually win a game away from Japan? Well you would of never guessed it but….. THEY DID IT!! JAPAN WON A GAME OUTSIDE OF JAPAN!!! Same it wasn’t a very good match and they beat their group E ’friends’ and a team I thought were Africa’s best team, Cameroon 1-0.

Thirdly South Korea…

Now they did well. They finished top of their group with 16 points. Just behind their political and well overall rivals North Korea. Can you picture them games? I know I can. But anyway, once they had qualified they went into the hat and came out in group B with Argentina, Greece and Nigeria. Their first game was against opponents that had won the European Championship and were now facing something huge. No not the economic crash but the up keep of Argentina and how they would win. But anyway that’s a different story. It came to the match and they WON! 2-0 against Greece. I bet that helped the depression.

Forth and finally our loving, open friends, NORTH KOREA….

Now they finished second in their grouping. They came from know where and shocked the world. Now I heard that during the matches no one cheered from North Korea and scary as it sounds at a football match I can actually picture it. As Korea DPR now step up to the plate for the big time from no where could they do it? Would they do well in the group of Death? In group G they had five time champions Brazil, a Portugal side that have the worlds most expensive player and the Ivory Coast who people were saying after Cameroons defeat were the best African team since sliced bread. Yet how did they do? Well for a start they made sure that Brazil didn’t score a single goal for 55 minutes and then they kept it like that until Elano scored in the 72^nd. Until a piece of magic happened. NORTH KOREA SCORED A FANTASIC GOALS! A player I have never hear of Ji scored on the 89^th minute which I thought was the best goal of the night. Next up in the group of now so called ’Death.’ Bring on Portugal and how badly North Korea in this bloggers opinion will score. Will it be 2-1 Korea? 1-0 Korea? I certainly hope so.
