Which country do you want to support?
It is hard to say. I shall support Spain this time. No doubt, Brazil is a strong team anyway.
Is there any particular resson that you want to be a Spanish fan? For me I certainly support Australia, ndat. As for watching the matches SBS in Australia will broadcast all matches involving Australia. SBS is a free-to-air channel, no cost. However, I think Australia will not progress to the next stage therefore will only appear at the start of the tournement, which means when we are in HK 15-25 June I have no way to watch those matches! But, still, I hope that Australia will progress to the next stage(s) so that it can still appear when we gto back to Australia. This is a wild wish though!!
I was inspired by the Spanish team some years ago in their matches played in the FIFA World Cup. Not only they were skilful, but they were also like bullfighters.
The team may not win this time, but I hope so!
