Those easy counter attacks were caused by England's failure to set up properly for a free kick and throw-in respectively. The score-line had little effect on either.

There's room for a filling in between that Jessica-Irina sandwich! I volunteer! :drool:

I don't understand all the complaints about the disallowed goal. I could understand it if the game had ended 2-1, but Germany scored twice more and had lots of chances before and after Lampard's goal was disallowed.

And neither of them will be missed.

Why not? Ghana and Uruguay (likely) aren't exactly insurmountable challenges. I like their chances more than England's, who will have to overcome Germany and Argentina to make it that far.

I hope mr. Evra along with Anelka, Henry, Abidal and Gallas enjoy their international retirement. Unlike Domenech, Laurent Blanc has a backbone and very little patience for drama-queens.

and considering the North Korean team of '66 had this fate after loosing to Portugal ( ) in quarterfinals (!) back in the day, I don't see why they would be treated differently this time. If you are referring to the rumors of the 66 team being executed upon their return to Korea, a BBC documentary disproved that story several years ago!

Ref likely won't be seen again for the remainder of the tournament.

Alien is an absolute classic and well worth the watch. Aliens too, though on a different level. The rest of the sequels are dreck.

QBall, just how many teams are you supporting?

Not quite. England still controls its own destiny. If they beat Slovenia, they go through regardless of what happens in the other game. If they lose to Slovenia, they go out unless the US loses to Algeria by a larger margin. If both the US and England draw their last game, then it all will come down to number of goals scored. The US is in the advantage so far, having scored three to England's one.

1. Hilary Rhoda x3 2. Ana Beatriz Barros x3 3. Verena Badofszky x3

Wow!!! :drool:

They survived a 6 for 24 shooting night by Kobe Bryant!!!

The short answer for Brazil is that Dunga wants players he can trust in terms of tactical and positional discipline. This has hurt the chances of some of the flair players who took liberties with their responsibilities on the field. This is not your father's or grandfather's Brazil. They're solid, not brilliant. Though I am mystified as to how Robinho seems to find his way back into this new style Brazil. You'd think he'd get the booth along with the likes of Adriano and Ronaldinho.

Erm no... When Gisele was at that press conference with Thierry Henry for Ebel, her ignorance about soccer was quite apparent but I could not care less. She's a model, it's not her job to be a soccer expert.

So you expect fashion models to know the ins and outs of every sport their company might market in some way? How many different sports does VS have apparel for? Your demand is not realistic.

Not just on the squad, you could make a pretty good starting eleven just out of all the talented players he left at home!
