Meanwhile I couldn't really watch the opening ceremony because none of the three official stations in the US aired the celebration. I watched the opening game, though, a very spectacular game indeed with total of 6 goals and Germany wins the battle 4-2 against Costa Rica. Germany was very well prepared, even without, Michael Ballack the team captain due to injury. Costa Rica was able to fight back and shot 2 goals thru Paolo Wanchope, but their defense was so lacking. They didn't even show much determination on the 2nd half, right after Wanchope scored the 2nd goal and brought the score even closer to draw. Until Torsten Frings really shut Costa Rica down with 4th goal with his long curved shot.
Miroslav Klosse scored twice on his birthday.
