AQ, it looks like you haven't seen China play in the past couple of warmup games, their record is preety impressive.
Turkey might come close but I think China will get the 2nd spot.

Less than 24 hours left to the start of the big event!

The French should be able to handle that easily even without Zidane!

I would have love to seen Turkey win but wasn't to be.

man the ref for bra-tur game was daym strict!! Oh well brazil got a penalty on the right time ..

not to forget, Ronaldo played very good .. he's back to his classic form! Amazing player!

I think Turkey made a very good impression...Too bad they had to loose like this...2 players sent off!

Anywayz hope that Brazil n Turkey will top this poule!

Very true I would have wished that it would have stayed the way it was 1-1.
Well Brazil isn't making the best impression. They had to fight hard here.
I guess Brazil will more problems with China.

That was so cheap!
Brasil kept pulling on Turkish shirts throughout the game.. even after the red card, yet the offical didn't care.

Rivaldo's drama at the end was so fake, it was sad! He kicked the ball towards his arms, and he fell down holding his head.

I don't blame Turkey that much, as it's not fair when you don't get equal opportunity.

Besides, it should have been a free kick, not a penalty. He pulled him down, outside of the box.

I agree! Although I was quite indifferent about the outcome of this match, Turkey would have deserved at least one point.
The performance of the referee was a huge scandal not only because of the wrong penalty, but overall.

Regardless of this result Brazil and Turkey are gonna be the teams to qualify for the next round.

For the Korean referee of this match, Kim Young-Joo however this should have been the last match of the World Cup.
