Just cast my vote.

Nice to see two of the most skilful sides around kick lumps out of each other for 45 minutes.

Portugal's passing makes England's look good.

Or in Japan, even.

I'd never have got that, ffs.

GM, man.

Christ. That's just ludicrous. I mean, you must practise up to a point, but the Germans aren't masters of pens because they have better technique than anyone else.

Think he's gonna have a Ronaldo-style breakdown. Doesn't look like he's enjoying his football at all at the moment.

30. Give up after that.

Again, people harping on about technique when the English problem is one of mental strength or lack thereof.

Is there really any point in practising penalties? Genuine question.

The Japs, the USA because of Mike, and Chile because they're cool (arf!).

Balotelli of Inter Milan. And thats about it isn't it? How strange. None in the Slovakia side either. Or New Zealand. Or Australia. Or Slovenia. Or Spain. Or Greece. Or Denmark. Racist bastards. No, but they have them in their top divisions. When I tried to think of them in Seria-A, I couldn't apart from Balotelli. Italy is a central/southern europe country so will have a lot of immigration from African nations (at least you'd think). Where as New Zealand is isolated and their Samoan/Hakar natives tend to play Rugby, same as Australia. They all sell bags on the street, not play top-division football.

He said it like 3 times or something.

What was that shit about Cannavaro? Absolutely unnecessary.

What a fucking match.

Last 30 minutes or so has been brilliant.

Italy have been dogshit. Fair play to Slovakia, though.

They probably have, but you get the feeling if you gave ITV the same budget they'd have Piers Morgan presenting it and Louise Redknapp as co-commentator.

Why is ITV so cheap? It is just money or do they just have no class whatsoever?

I give myself a 3 for everything. Apart from unnecessary hacks for which I give myself a 9. Hope I can make it.

Lukas PoLOLski.

Why are Italy wearing our new away shirt?

Fuck's sake. This is gonna be 90 minutes of rolling around.
