I think this match also reinforces the idea that in the group stage what you need is to score points and qualify, not to make great exhibitions. Performing great early doesn't guarantee anything for the next games. Czech was fantastic in the first game, only to be slaughtered one week later..

Yep yep, the World Cup really begins in the 1/8 round, you may lose the cup earlier in the groups stage, but pulling superb performances doesn't mean shit right now...

He's either Jewish or playing in the Israeli League and thanks them for giving him the chance to play.
