I'm warming to him:laugh: Some are criticising this lacklustre victory - but I think England will ultimately raise their game - now that Rooney is back they have a much improved strike force, and IMHO the best is yet to come.

They certainly are looking better I think than the first game. Hopefully they will improve.

Argentina plays a tough match today. Hopefully they will win and erase that embarrasing exit in the group stage of the last World Cup. :thumbs:

Wow! I just went over to the FIFA WC site and low and behold Argentina is already up 1 nil! The goal came in the 6th min. off the foot of Maxi Rodriguez.

!Viva Argentina!

I don't have cable, but I can watch the "matchcast" on the web- it gives a realtime commnetary and later I can watch all the video highlights.

From what I can tell it sounds as if Argentina is dominating and looking like a real contender once again.

I'd love to see one of the Latin American teams take the cup. And I'm not ruling out a big African upset in the standings.

I would too except for Brazil. Cote de Ivoire lost today so there is one African nation that will not advance.

Wow - Ghana made the Czechs look REALLY bad, and the Czechs beat the US 3-0.

Not looking good folks.

What a great game! Hats of to Ghana, this was a big upset considering the Czechs were ranked #2 in the world (personally I think they were over ranked). What makes this even sweeter is that now the US has a shot at advancing. If they beat Italy today, this group will have all four teams with 3 pts.

This is a beautiful game!:thumbs:

The US were the winners in tonight's game despite the 1-1 scoreline! They played better all round. The ref should have never disallowed their goal.

It was a good game, but it should have been 2-1 to the US.

A 1-1 draw boring?

Not in this case


Nine man USA against ten man Italy with a disallowed goal that should never have been disallowed.

Way to go USA - All we need is for Italy to beat the Czechs and us to beat Ghana and we are through

My prediction of 2-1 US was close, but I think it is a longshot to advance now. We have to beat not draw against Ghana while Italy has to beat the Czechs. Italy is a typical boring, conservative European team and since all they need is a draw to win the group I don't see them even playing to win. I hope I am wrong....
