I mean, neither England nor Russia don't deserve to qualify with such playing. In my opinion, of course. No offense to anyone. |

Yeah. Bridge being a couple of yards off the rest of the defence on that 2nd goal. This is why England really missed Rio Ferdinand and John terry playing in the heart of defence. |
absolutely, there were some terrible mistakes in the defence they also missed Ashley Cole, that makes it 3 out of 4 key players

Unlucky England! Although this is the first international tournament i'll be able to enjoy in my entire life. Being a scotsman living in England is hard.

Would you like to watch TV, or get between the sheets, or contemplate the silent freeway, would you like something to eat?
