TFT World Cup Podcast No.7

Tuesday, 6 July 2010

With four games to go, World Cup 2010 continues to thrill, entertain and surprise. Far from the criticism that seems to be directed at this year's tournament, I think this has been a competition for the hardcore football supporters rather than the more casual fans. FIFA won't be pleased with that, but it has been fantastic to watch as a result.

In the penultimate World Cup show, Chris Nee and Gary Andrews are joined in the studio by one-time podcast host Theo Delaney and regular guest Terry Duffelen to pick over four dramatic quarter finals.

We examine the Netherlands victory over a Brazil side which seemed to lose its customary discipline as soon as the tide began to turn against them, and Germany's emphatic thumping of Argentina. We discuss penalties with reference to Paraguay v Spain and, of course, the infamous Luis Suarez handball in Uruguay's win over Ghana.

On top of all that, we make some blind predictions ahead of the semi-finals, which see Uruguay take on the Netherlands and Germany try to upset Spain.

Enjoy the show.

Kwaitoball is twofootedtackle's World Cup 2010 blog, covering all the news, views and action from South Africa.

The World Cup runs from June 11th to July 11th 2010 and we'll be there every step of the way, keeping tabs on the build-up beforehand and wrapping up for a few weeks afterwards.

'Kwaito', by the way, is a blend of house music and African sounds which emerged from Johannesburg in the early 1990s. That's what my flatmate's boyfriend says and Wikipedia agrees. I recommend Zola, by the way [Spotify link].
