They play u21 unless they are good enough for the normal NT... because that one matters the most

Got to be for the US. I seem to recall seeing an 18 year old already this World Cup.

And wasn't Messi under 20 last WC?

Yes, but did he play?
Bojan could but Spain got enough players and how many more do they need if they have David Villa Torres Fabregras ...

But If he play for his birth country, Serbia, I think he would have played.

Samira, I think you will find that Bojan was in fact born in Spain (or Catalonia if you want to get picky). His parents are from Serbia, but they left Serbia well before Bojan was born.

they said starter, and they didn't mention anything about it being a US only thing.

Go Holland?

Most definitely!

Ugh, I hate mornings before a big game. You can almost feel the tension, everywhere is just dead silent outside.

4 previous World Cup meetings, neither side has won in 90 minutes, yet.

Yep...

World Cup 1966 final England-W. Germany 4:2
World Cup 1970 quarter final W. Germany-England 3:2
World Cup 1982 second round W. Germany-England 0:0
World Cup 1990 semi final W. Germany-England 1:1 (4:3)

Is the British gripe with Argentina and Germany entirely related to the wars they've fought?

For older people maybe, but it's grown into a football thing. I also don't think it would be seeing as we won those wars, so why would we be bitter about that?

Euro 96 and WC 98 were the first tournements I watched, so it's more that for me personally.

Anybody got a decent stream?

KLOSE TORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

YES !! you see how strong he is , wow !!
KLOSE

Edit: damn they did not show how Capello reacted on the goal

Very nice by Müller and Khedira, Klose should have made it 2-0

PODOLSSKI 2-0 TOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRR

Typical. 1-0 down to a goal 5 yards offside and it puts us on the back foot.

**** off officials.

oooh james is pissed !!
Podolski ! where the f is englands defense !?

2-1 Upson...

Well done Matty!

OMG

That went miles over.

FIFA 2-1 England.

hahah 2-1 , its not over yet...
Upson

oh dear god, lampard, it was in !?

what does torr mean ?
Means dry in swedish

That was a second goal! Sorry England, you just got screwed! This game should be 2-2

Ein Tor ist/is a goal. (and Lampard did score but...)

Yes he did, the line ref is god knows what

Wow how could they miss that??

HT

Who says instant replay is a bad idea?

Meh, we can't complain, we go into games knowing we have to play against FIFA, this is expected.

HT FIFA 2-1 England.

We don't need instant replay.

We need linesmen with eyes/no bias.

Bias? really? Come on man. The linesman was out of place, he couldn't see it to call it. The benefit of the doub twill always go to the defense there. Instant replay would act as the eyes for these guys and make the game fair. Which at the end of the day is all anyone wants, a fair game.

Let's not go over board, teams have been screwed over in this competition, non of them with the name England, it was shocking that he didn't see that, but it's the way it is.

This is what habitant said when he said you wouldn't be so objective had the same thing that happened to Italy happened to England.

Theres a huge difference, Han. Italys were debatable, this was black and White.

Anyways, need much better now England, were far better than these, run at them, keep fighting.

Typical you! when the GK is the assisting player with a goalkick, offside rule doesn't count.

Even so, the point of it was that we're always objective as long as it's not our team that's been screwed over. England were cheated out of a goal I agree, but to go as far as saying that FIFA are just out to get England is ridiculous imo.

First goal wasn't offside. I don't think. Anyway they shouldn't let their heads get down on something tht happened in the first half. C'mon Team Capello!

Perhaps the disallowed goal is karmic payback for 1966 when a ball that didn't cross the line was counted as a goal for england?

(I agree it should've been a goal today, the linesman missed it.)

TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR Müller

Toooooooooooooooorrrr 4-1

Özil assist, Müller scores again

Wow. That one was pretty. Ozil + Muller nice combination.

Germany's last two goals have been sensational. True manual of football.

If I'm Galliani, I'm about ready to drop 15m for Ozil. Star in the making.

No excuse for this, losing to Uruguay is not acceptable.

hahaha, barry, two mistakes..

Don't worry, maybe next time.

Capello's logic:

v USA - Milner on, 1-0
v USA - Milner off, 0-1

v Algeria - Milner off, 0-0

v Slovenia - Milner on, 1-0

v Officials - Milner on, 2-2
v Officials - Milner off, 0-2

Sort it out, Fabio.

What a save bu Neuer!
