Yesterday the World Cup kicked off with the host nation South Africa coming up against Mexico, Vela started the game and looked really fresh, he had one amazing pass and a goal disallowed, due to a rule that I wasn't even aware of, but it had something to do with two opposition players having to be in front of you, and when the African goalkeeper went out to take down the ball from a corner, he misjudged it which led to Vela being completely free and he easily scored while Pienaar stood on the goal-line, the reason that it went to offside was because Vela stood behind the goalkeeper when a fellow Mexican player headed the ball towards him.
The game ended 1-1.
Later in the evening Uruguay came up against France, we had three Arsenal players in that game, and all played the entire ninety minutes, Diaby (a surprise inclusion to the starting eleven), Gallas and Sagna.
Diaby played amazingly well in the game and that is probably the reason to his involvement during the entire game, but disappointment for France as the game ended 0-0, even though an Uruguay player was shown red, due to a horrible tackle on Sagna who luckily didn't get injured!
And some news from the transfer window, lots of rumours about Joe Cole signing for Arsenal, but Senderos has left for Fulham, and Cesc Fabregas is still an Arsenal player.
