Same reason we have an Italian manager!

Wait a minute. Is Orlando/ Oviedo playing England???

Loved the game!!I Would have loved it more if someone would have won!!! I still don't quite like this whole draw stuff...Yes ....had a great time watching the game with RFFB..Wow you guys take your football seriously!!! Even better when we scored!!! HaHa! our goal keepers tougher than yours!!Thought he was a gonner for sure after that hit he took....Really was a good game especially the second half....Got treated to a fantastic dinner and shopping on Carnaby Street...Really was a lot of fun....

Matty I have already been introduced to PG tips tea and am hooked...On my first visit he got me hooked to shortbread cookies and those things are like heroin...This trip I was given a stash of Walkers.....OMG I am in heaven!!!!!

Way to go Japan

Spain play today. Should be good (Hopefully).

Oh and can someone please swat those annoying bees!

I have that bee sound stuck in my head....There is not much room left with the black hole and the pop goes the weasel song.....I am loving these games!! Did you see Switzerland!!!! that was great!

After a slow start, the competition seems to be hotting up. Loved watching a woeful France getting beaten by a much superior Mexico team.

Yes it does appear to be warming up nicely. It is lovely to see the cheating cheese eating surrender monkey's lose so badly and be on the verge of going out...

Switzerland & Mexico results were fantastic! Nice to see the underdog come good...lets just hope Algeria don't become the next underdog winners!!!!

Seems our keeper isn't the only one to be having ball problems either. Has anyone com eout in support of the ball being used in the event at all?

It'll be alright, this is where the whole team rallies together and put on an unbelievable performance that stuns the World and propells them through to the group stages and on to victory in the final !!!!! ............................ Eh, Nurse !!??? I think I'm ready for my medication now !!!

At least England is doing alright....Look at France!!! A player got kicked off for cursing att he coach..The players refuse to practice because of that mess. The team manager and some other upper mng. man arer walking away.....What a shame!!! This is sport boys not kindergarten....

Sport? Not if at the end of regulation, you walk away from a draw. Don't see it. Sorry.

The old ' A draw is too complicated for Americans to understand' argument rears it's head again I see..

Yeah, why is a draw such a bad thing? As long as each team did their best what does it matter if there is no outright winner?

In your regular American football games (as in the one you play with your hands!!!!!... ) whta happens if at the end it's a draw? Extra time?, next team to score wins?...how's it settled?
