Somepeople have no idea. When you actually play in goal and face a shot which is straight infront of you with such power and direction, you aren't going to stop it no matter who you are.

that was a pretty damn good second goal.
edit; nvm. what.
he doesn't look on form, he's literally losing the ball all over the place. crouchy has a very good england goal record.
Rooney is picking up form now. Keep him on for the rest of the game.
Wow, great defending! This is what true England should be doing.
Diving bodies to stop the ball.
*John Terry.
Rooney off!
Replaced by Joe Cole!
nervesss.
im quite shocked tbh i thought slovenia might have got a goal to equalize by now then england score another last couple of mins
GG LADS. GG

Ahh beautiful. Whatever that guy has said above now has completly show that he knows nothing about football. I am going to scan so many posts to see you say that England wouldn't go through the group and give u a nice big juicy -reputation. :)
Well cracking, I was on the edge of my seat all game, England played good but not too good that the press tomorrow will say they are going to win. Bigger teams to face, when Argentina knock Mexico out everything will be all good and we can go beat the Argies. James Milner put some brilliant balls over, the whole performance shows how England can just play good football.
omg did you see that great header omg first goal so azaming we watched in our maths lesson lol
great match. Nerve racking but thats england :)
i hate the american football team. just a pointer.
Finishing second could be a blessing in disguise. We could miss Germany if Ghana sit back for the draw. Ghana want the win, surely, otherwise the Serbs could knock them out. Also, I don't fear Argentina in the quarters.
Argentina have the attack. They don't have the defence at all. We need to be solid at the back against them and we'll be fine. Upson will worry me big time although Carra should be back. What also worries me is that Argentina have the worlds worst RB, and we have Gerrard LM who won't take advantage of that at all.
I think Germany will finish top but who knows.
There are two ways Ghana look at this match. They either go for the draw, knowing that will take them through, but in second if Serbia win. Or they go for the win. This guarantees them first place. But, if they leave themselves too open, Germany will punish them, but if they play for the draw there's always the chance that like Greece, they will succumb to a late goal. However, they draw and Serbia win and they face USA, rather than England. Now if I was the Ghana manager I'd say, let's hang on for the draw, because first place is the actual dangerous match.
hello, it's slovenia.
far from convincing. played no better than in previous 2 games.
You have to be kidding? Whilst I agree it was only Slovenia, this game was 10x better then the other two. The England players actually looked like they gave a damn, and it could easily have been 4/5-0. We played really well and I'm proud of the preformance. Even Rooney was picking up form until he got subbed.
********.
it could've been 4/5-0 in each of the other matches but the fact is, it wasn't. it's becoming a regular thing. play like that against anyone whose names don't end in 'ic' and we'll lose.
3 points and a win, fair enough but far from convicing. i'm sorry, it's slovenia. their currency is cabbage fgs.
I disagree greatly. That preformance was a lot better then any other game we played. How you can say otherwise is beyond me. But I agree, that was a good preformance, but it wasn't the best we can do. I think we're just getting started. You can't say we'll lose against another team. We were solid, nothing special, but solid. We created a lot of chances and on another day we could have scored 3-4, but they have a top class keeper. Rooney, Lampard, Defoe and Terry all had really good chances and the keeper pulled off two world class saves.
