Post your predictions and I will update the thread as I am watching the game.

I say 2-1 Germany. Ticos score early but run out of gas in the end.

Ballack is indeed out with a calf strain.

is this being streamed anywhere that I can get it? I know the BBC is streaming video but you have to be in the UK.

I expect solid updates since I'm at work in Rudder and will be randomly running over to the MSC to get a glimpse

I think it would be great to get this thing started with a goal fest, even though it might make my man Jens Lehmann look bad. So here's hoping for a 4-2 scoreline or something like that.

On the bandwagon since birth. Raised in the bleachers of Kyle, Olsen, and G. Rollie White

A defender slips on coverage and gives the midfielder time to line up his shot...what a goal. In the 6th minute.

Will we see a better placed shot for the rest of the tournament?

That will be a top 10 goal for sure.

Costa Rica looks really lost. They can't get posession barely able to string 2 passes together and collapsing in a heap whenever they are touched.

Germany sends a great searching ball to the top striker, header a bit wide.

Wow, he WAS onside. That one defender should get blasted for that.

Anybody else think there was handball on German goal?

Through ball to Wanchopem, looked questionable but on replay looked like the right call. Was a great finish as most players would crap their pants given that oppurtunity on this stage.

The Tico looked offside on that from the live shot, but I guess he really wasn't

When I was in Costa Rica last year I got to watch the Tico team. I was surprised at how good they actually are.
