alexandral** sigh of relief **
I am not really that interested in the national team (apart from the whole patriotic aspect of it all), but I am quite relieved : my daughter is turning into a crazy England supporter and this day (warm and beautiful otherwise) would have been a total misery if her hopes for England were crushed. Personally, I am ready for the new crop of English players to come along ; may be I can find someone to like and then will be able to cheer for the national team in earnest.
Anyways: EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
The win was performed in the best tradition of English team: they kept their fans on the edges of their seats UNTIL THE VERY END. Never mind, it is not as if England has too many chances ahead, for it seems highly likely that Germany will be the winners of the group D and Germany will wipe the floor with England.
In other news, USA : Algeria - 1 : 0. I am torn between fairly admitting that USA have been quite good this year and panicking "Oh No! Another sport that will be dominated by the World Superpower USA soon! NO!". Also I would have really liked Algeria or Slovenia to go through, so sorry, I am no USA supporter..
My predictions for the evening matches:
Germany will beat Ghana
Serbia will beat Australia
Edit:
Germany/Ghana 1:0
Australia/Serbia 2:1
Ghana is through!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am going to cheer for them with all my heart!!!!
