You are watching for the wrong reasons. You should pick a game that is likely to be worth watching rather than simply watching because they are your team. There was no real incentive for England to play hard and score lots of goals -- so they didn't! On the other hand I would say that the majority of games have been enthralling to watch (easily three quarters -- but maybe I'm a soccerasaurus or soccer addict). So I suggest you pick a game worth watching like Mexico vs Italy later today. Italy _must_ win to guarantee advancement, both teams are very capable, so it should be a great game. > I can't wait till Denmark beats England this Saturday! > I sure hope that some channel in Portugal tramits this > moster of a fight ;-) At least Asger's team can win a game or make a show of it at least. Go Denmark! Then we will see them play Portugal in a later stage. Unless Spain manages to knock one of them out along the way. (I'm actually a big fan of English Premier League football but let's face it, England as a country team isn't that great. A sad fact indeed given that they invented the game) > See some of you swimming in Porto, the others have fun. I'll be having fun! Allan. (ARRae)
