    Great start from Neymar - does he always wear "Neymar Jr" on the back of his shirt ?

    Games tomorrow for anyone that didn't know are:

    Mexico v Italy at 8pm (bbc3)
    Spain v Uruguay 11pm (bbc1)

    Didn't anticipate how boring sport-wise this summer would be. Took the Euros and Olympics for granted last year so actually going to enjoy this cup, however insignificant it is.

    I reckon most of the teams probably take it pretty seriously, Brazil especially.

    Will be interesting to see how bad Tahiti are.

    Held in the stadiums that will host World cup football next summer. The hosts and world cup winners are joined by the six confederation champions (or in Europe's case, runners up thanks to Spain) to play an eight team WC dress rehearsal. :-)

    Watched this on the BBC's new HD red button service. (Channel 980 on Freesat). The opening part of the match was really hilarious because the commentary and video were so far out of sync. It was a bit bizarre knowing there was going to be a free kick before the foul was committed and hearing the crowd celebrate Neymar's goal before he had actually hit the ball!

    so what's the qualification procedure, why aren't england in the competion as other european teams are? not that we'd win it.

    I think it's the holders of the six regional championships, world cup hosts and world cup holders, hence lack of English involvement. Italy are in this one due to being runners up at the euros as Spain had already qualified as world cup holders.

    Saw on the news there had been protests/rioting in Brazil from those who don't want the World Cup there.

    I wonder if any of them were protesting at possible parking restrictions.
