Windex Heals All Wounds?

Greece goes head to head with South Korea. Everything the two cultures stood for hit the field: gyro vs. kimchi, hairy vs. hairless, My Big Fat Greek Wedding vs. Jumong, lamb vs. dog (not that I judge what people eat), and Euro vs. Won. I watched the whole game and would love to give my full input but I wasn’t able to catch any of the players’ names – to me everything ended in –ung or –opolous. The only name that stuck with me was South Korea’s secret weapon, Jisung. Take that North Korea! While you spend all that money trying to build nukes, South Korea has bred their own weapon, an Asian soccer version of Chuck Norris. Shoot another torpedo….see what happens! But that’s only because he’s from Manchester United and played very well, as expected.

The first goal was assisted by Ping Pong Wax-On Wax-Off and finished by Jung-Soo using karat-ayyy putting the ball in the back post. No, the South Koreans didn’t love the ball long time, unlike the Greeks, just for 90 minutes. The Koreans scored sum on the Greeks and dimsum more. Yes, the South Koreans won without Ninja stars, smoke bombs or flying sidekicks. Then again who can stop a ball that is shot at an angle calculated with a protractor? For the second goal, Jisung impressively, from midfield, out ran and out dribbled two of Greece’s defenders securing the victory.

Looks like Greece is just as bad at soccer as they are at managing their economy. There won’t be such a big fat Greek wedding after all – and no Greeks did not invent soccer….the Persians did….as you can tell by Iran’s standings in the World Cup (nonexistent). Either way Windex won’t heal this wound Greece. Let’s see if they can redeem themselves next game.
