No it's not a trouncing but it's still early in the competition. Germany weren't great at the start of the last World Cup and look what happened.
Sure, but given that Spain drew with Portugal (a far superior team to Iran, let's be honest here) 3-3, to only beat the Islamics by one goal was pretty poor I feel. U Are Gay just didn't seem bothered. Look at the last few minutes of the first half: as they said on RTE commentary, they were playing it out as if it was the end of the match and all they had to do was retain the ball. There was another 45 minutes plus yet to go, and still they were acting as if the game was over. Bo-ring.
