  1. It's a battle between two unconvincing defences. This could go down to which one makes the most mistakes.
  2. I was certain he would miss that. The long wait and the ball adjustment made it seem as though he was quaking. Still, I'm glad to be wrong. He's now levelled Rooney's scoring record.
  3. I think both teams would look back on a defeat as a significant missed opportunity. It's a bit like when England had half an hour to get an equaliser against ten-man Brazil in 2002 and couldn't capitalise.
  4. Something England failed to do when they lost at the last two tournaments was maintain positive momentum when ahead. Now they're going to have to do the opposite and come from behind. Have they got it in them?
  5. It's a "WE WOZ ROBBED" moment. Now that can be the point of contention even if England lose 5-0.
  6. There hasn't been much to convince me that anything is coming home other than the England players and fans so far.
  7. In a few years, enough of your England-supporting cells will probably be dead. We should then have another vote.
  8. Regardless of what happens tonight, I don't want France to win the tournament again. Give someone else their moment.
  9. Some of the birth nations of Morocco's players include Italy, Spain, France, the Netherlands, Belgium and Canada. Plenty of people can latch onto their success.
  10. We're now down to three unbeaten teams.
  11. Think of all the good players Argentina have produced over the last thirty years. Then remember that this is only the second time they've got past the quarter-finals since 1990.
  12. I'm hoping one of those cocky penalties gets saved one of these days.
  13. History would be on Argentina's side if this goes to penalties. They have won ten out of sixteen shootouts, whereas the Netherlands have only won two out of seven. Really, though, that's just trivia and should have no bearing on anything.
  14. Argentina are back on top now. They'll be kicking themselves if they don't win this.
  15. It's a good thing yellow cards are erased after this round.
  16. Most people just seemed to find it a bit weird. Whatever the case, it's a bit worrying that someone in the audience could just walk up on stage with the award recipients. It doesn't seem like a very secure operation.
  17. How dare a team not just let Brazil win?
