What to say...
Hi guys!! It's the World Cup season. Right now, it came to the second round with so much drama. Red cards, upsets and injuries.. I don't really know what to write, my mind is working so well. I think it's because of the lack of sleeping. Too much world cup. I just want to update whatever stuffs that has happened during the world cup.
- Ronaldo equals Gerd Muller's record for the all-time top scorer in the world cup. Now he has scored 14 goals in 3 world cups.
- The highest number of cards being shown in a match with 20 cards altogether(16 yellow cards and 4 red cards).
- David Beckham is the only player from England who has scored in three different world cups. There are in 1998, 2002 and 2006.
- Switzerland is the only country in the world cup 2006 that has not conceeded a goal.
- Ghana, have reached the second round of the world cup, their first.
- There are more goals scored than the last world cup.
- Italy scored a very very last minute(few seconds before the whistle being blown) goal against Australia to reach the quarterfinal. The goal was scored by Totti after Italy were rewarded a penalty.
Here are the teams that are through to the quarterfinal after the second round of the world cup:
- Argentina
- Germany

Oh ya I forgot to you guys that I support England. Go England!! I also support Brazil and Italy but not as great as I support England. Maybe next post I will comment on England's performance in the World Cup 2006 in Germany. Chow!!
Netherlands outraged over 'paedophile' party AMSTERDAM(Reuters) - Dutch paedophiles are launching a political party to push a cut in the legal age for sexual relations to 12 from 16 and the legalisation of child pornography and sex with animals, sparking widespread outrage. The Charity, Freedom and Diversity (NVD) part said on its WEb site it would be officially registered on Wednesday, proclaiming: "We are going to shake The Hague awake!" The party said it wanted to cut the legal age for sexual relations to 12 and eventuallu scrap the limit together. The Netherlands, which already has liberal policies on soft drugs, prostitution and gay marriage, was shocked by the plan. "They make out as they want more rights for children. But their position that children should be allowed sexual contact from age 12 is of course just in their own interest," anti-paedophile campaigner Ireen van Engelen told the AD daily. Right-wing lawmaker Geert Wilders said he had asked the government to investigate whether a party with such "sick ideas" could really be established, ANP news agency reported. Among other things, the party said everbody should allowed to go naked in public and promotes legalising all soft and hard drugs and free train travel for all. |
