Don't count Spain out either, let themselves down in tournaments but their day will come 8)

Is anyone else reading the guardian minute by minute?

73 min "Do you think you could at least pretend the game is a little interesting?" sighs Tom Coote. "It’s not like I’d know the difference." OK. Odonkor in no way picks the ball up down the right, runs forward for a bit, then falls over his own feet. No, in fact, he cuts inside, does two Cruyff turns past three Polish defenders, scampers past two other men a la Maradona 86, dummies the keeper like Pele 70, traps the ball on the line, bends down and heads it in. It's disallowed for lacking verisimilitude.

63 min Rooney sends Ashley Cole down the left with a reasonable pass which, if the tone of Clive Tyldsley's voice is anything to go by, is slightly better than the one Pele gave to Carlos Alberto in the 1970 final. Meanwahile Chris Bond's after a favour: "My work firewall has blocked Betfair. Can anybody tell me the odds on Alex Ferguson having a heart attack in the next 30mins?"

And we're off again! No changes at half-time. Carragher immediately swings a ball into the box from the right; it's cleared with ease. Now, are England the worst team in the World Cup? “Only if you don’t consider the US a team, which is a valid stance after that hurting the Czechs put on us,” says Greg Urquhart.

Dry stuff. Makes me smile though.

3 men sent off in one game? Admitedly the Italian one was a blatant elbow and deserved a red. Didn't see the USA fouls to comment whether they deserved to be sent off.

Well done to the Americans for getting a point with 9 men. =D>

Blows the italian group wide open, after 2 games any of the 4 teams can qualify

Big time.

Ghana would have beaten every team they played against today. Italy valiantly tried to lose the match against the US, even slipping in a goal for them. Seriously, that match was like the twilight zone. And the Czechs were run ragged. Crazy stuff.

Have to drive out to Queens tomorow, pick up a new SV for my mate, and be back in time for Australia's shock upset against Brasil. :wink:

France!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

games not finished but :lol:

france--- GET OUT !!!!

come onnn

France, au revoir :smt039

Argies are the best side so far.

Non, rien de rien
Non, je ne regrette rien
Ni le bien qu'on m'a fait, ni le mal
Tout ça m'est bien égal
Non, rien de rien
Non, je ne regrette rien
C'est payé, balayé, oublié
Je me fous du passé

I take you guys don't feel that France can get a win against Togo then? :?

The way its going they won't be playing TOGO (they're on strike - TOGO that is)
