I would have thought Cameroon was a better team, but Japan surprises.

Even with handicapped top scorer Didier Drogba, Portugal could not pull it off. That tells you how good the Ivorian team is.

I wasn't able to watch the game. Was it Portugal not coming together as a team or Cote d'Ivoire being much stronger than expected?

unbelievable. North Korea can easily stand against Brasilia.
IMO they even played better and less fouls.

Cool.

Don't sleep on the Ivorian team. Look at the roster and what each one has done for his club. Here also is a recent BBC report on Ivory Coast/Football. http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/thereporters ... _most.html

Wow, would not have expected that. But then again, I did not spend time to form an opinion on Cote d'Ivoire. Goes to show me.
