The team that impressed me the most was definetly Australia.
1 day before the world cup, i was still thinking they would not score the slightest goal.
They were really impressive against Japan and Brasil (didn't watch the game against Croatia, can't judge)
The greatest disappointment came from the Czech team and from England, who were supposed to offer better performance and better results.
