Starting in 20 minutes. Great to see Bony starting .... a full Jack B starting in the World Cup Finals. Our adopted son JDG did us proud in one of the most stunning games of the last 50 years. Looking forward to seeing how Bony bounces center backs off him at this level.
YaYa should have been a NoNo...Bony was ok but wont get many minutes , if any , to improvie in the 2nd half .. Droda wont be waiting long.
Bony had a couple of chances but badly fluffed one. Not in the game a lot but he's getting crap service. He'll probably be hooked for Drogba and if he is I'm off to bed. IC all action and power but Japan are well organised and countering well; great goal by Honda for them. Just hoping that Bony gets some decent service so he can show what he can do.
Commentators been dissing Bony then he scores with a great header. As I said, give him enough good service and he will get goals. Way to go my BONNNNNNNNNNYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As I post, Gervinho gets a second for IC.
I fancy Ivory coast to do well if they can shore up their defence a bit, and feed their keeper steroids!.............
Japan were better than i thought they`d be, great win for our Bony though, i hope they only subbed him to keep him fresh for the next game
