If Ever There was a Game That Needed a Goal.

It was Brazil V Portugal. With just one goal it would have opened up into a free flowing and attacking game of football. Sadly it didn't happen and both teams were happy to go through with a point after it ended 0-0. In the other game Ivory Coast beat already out North Korea 3-0.

That means the final standings in Group G are;

1. Brazil 7pts
2. Portugal 5pts
3. Ivory Coast 4pts
4. North Korea 0pts.

Brazil go through as group winners and Portugal got through as runners up to play either Chile, Switzerland, Honduras or Spain. Most probably Portugal will play Chile and Brazil will play Spain but it is technically all up for grabs.

Elsewhere in the world the G8 Summit is today and the G20 summit will follow on Saturday and Sunday. The Canadian hosts have already arrested a man who was driving round with lots of weapons in his car. The Canadian police are insisting that this means that the Summits could come under terrorist attack at any moment. They are of course talking nonsense.
