Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
Wow, what a poor defense from England on the last Uruguay's goal! A huge mental mistake by the defender ...

That seems to happen a lot unfortunately
What a difference it makes to have a proven international goal scorer on your team. Suarez had 3 chances and scored twice. He is a class act.
What is it with England in WC? Has the best league in the world but can't seems to put it together for WC.
Very sad.
Regretfully, I missed the game - spent the afternoon at the ophthalmologist.
I think the England strikers could have done with a visit to the ophthalmologist as well, they just don't seem to be able to find the goal.
I watched a highlight show last night, and the panel of talking heads handed off to a couple of slightly daffy Englishmen for their analysis of the England -Uruguay match. They both poked fun and informed.
They showed three clips of Rooney shots: a direct kick over a wall of defenders that just sailed over the crossbar, a low and hard shot directly at the goalie and a header from very close range that found the post.
I got a laugh out of their summary: "And there you have it, ladies and gentleman, the English hat trick..."
If Costa Rica win or tie against Italy today then England are out after only 2 games.
Looks like England still has a good shot. I can't imagine Italy losing this game.
The unofficial World Cup anthem could prove more popular than the official World Cup 2014 song, written by Gary Barlow and featuring vocals from the Take That singer and 20 other celebrities, which was dropped last week. The FA stated that it had no plans for the track, called Greatest Day, to be released as an official single. It went on sale in March.
Well, I am back from London and Berlin and, as others suggested, it was fun watching with true fanatics. Berlin was particularly wild. Last night I sat at an outdoor cafe/bar next door to the apartment we stayed at in the Kreuzfeld district. There was a mixed crowd of around 50 sitting outside in front of a big screen TV. About half were Germans and half African immigrants. The cheering was louder for Ghana than for Germany. I routed for Ghana. After we beat them it is nice to see them do well against others.
