Hi, Lüko!

(1) Arg-Angola is not a complete certainty, even if Angola beats its 
way up, which BTW I would be delighted to witness.

We have some too many yellow cards, and Lucho González is worringly 
harmed after last game.  So that maybe -only MAYBE- José Pekerman 
will try to be conservative against Netherlands, and do some 
calculations as whether it would be best or worst for us to end 1st. 
or 2nd. in the group.  I'm not quite sure this will work with the 
players now, but he is an imposing man of sorts, with his soft smile 
and humble manners of lower class Jewish boy in Buenos Aires.  

If he decides that we should be 2nd, which among other consequences 
would make a Bra-Arg final impossible, he will have his way, almost 
certainly.

BTW2:  José Pekerman, the coach of the Arg team, was born and brought 
up in my own neighborhood, and he, as many of the players in the Arg 
nat. teams including Maradona, was discovered by my neighborhood's 
team, Argentinos Juniors which I am a fan of, bien sûr!  He was one 
of the first Jewish football players in Argentina, and later on he 
became the coach of the juvenile teams of Argentinos Jrs.  Later on 
he was hired as the coach of the under-17 and under-19 Arg teams:  13 
of the players under his orders in Germany today were also under his 
orders when they won some of those Cups, shich explains lots of what 
happened against Srbija & Crna Gora.

2) Political issues:  Arg-Britain

What is worth commenting here is that a crew of an Arg TV show who 
where roaming behind a gang of Brit hooligans discovered that -
whatever they might want us to believe- there is lots more than fair 
play at stake in a World Cup.  When the hooligans asked them "where 
they came from", and learnt that it was Argentina, they immediately 
started harassing them and seeking a riot, at the shout of "You will 
never recover the Falklands!" The crew was saved by German police, 
who anyway told them to drop their mission because the hooligans had 
spotted them and this could be dangerous.
