Popworldcupjustice: Argentina vs Switzerland

ARGENTINA V SWITZERLAND

Guest referee: Oli Goldman — Pop fan and former Popjustice intern 

Argentina32 Theme tune to Casi Ángeles

“Casi Ángeles stopped airing soon after the last World Cup, but that can’t stop its theme tune making a stirring comeback in the Popworldcupjustice four years on. If you can make it past the intro featuring highly erotic feather-blowing, creepy winks from the guy ‘sporting’ a trilby and the odd flying cupid, you’re in for a sam­bata­stic-sized treat. Using horns better than Cheryl Cole’s 'Crazy Stupid Love', the theme to Casi Ángeles would work perfectly as Alexandra Stan’s next single. (It should probably be Cheryl’s new single to be honest). Imagine Jennifer Lopez singing this at the opening ceremony instead of 'We Are One (Ole Ola)'. IMAGINE. Pitbull could even play the part of the creepy winking man”

Switzerland32 Theme tune to Lüthi und Blanc

“Hm, the Swiss have let us down somewhat with the repet­it­ive theme to the short-lived but ‘much-missed’ (‘forgotten’) soap opera Lüthi und Blanc. It’s hard to tell from the title credits, but appar­ently the show was about two warring families in the chocolate pro­duc­tion industry (amazing). It threatens to get inter­est­ing around the 12 second mark, but unfor­tu­nately the music soon flakes away to nothing more than a wispa, when it really needs a boost to (THAT’S ENOUGH OF THAT —  CHOCOLATE-BASED PUNS ED).”

Oli's full time score:

Argentina 5 — Switzerland 1
