Brian Blessed at his best, if the "Once more unto the breach" speech from Henry V didn't send a shiver down every Englishmen/womens spine, then I don't know what would...great stuff Brian.

... and now we can all take a breath.

I don't even like football but I enjoyed that match.

It should have been more comfortable than it was, BUT, I am not complaining.

The only worrying thing was the tiredness of some players at the end.

USA have scored meaning Slovenia is out. USA and runners up England now through to the last 16.

Well done lads

**Paul** · 23-06-2010, 16:59

Looks like we will face Germany now.

Any idea as to why USA gets top spot as the GD and points is the same?? I take it's on goals scored as USA is on 4 and England on 2??

Yes it is...

Fabio Capello can breathe easily in this instance too as England book their place in the last 16. England and USA would finish level on five points and goal difference would determine who progresses as Group C winners. If goal difference remains level, as is the case at the moment, goals scored (currently England 1, USA 3) would decide who finishes top.

I would rather we play Germany. We will find out in a few hours though.

Well played England but come on! This team where poor to say the least, they should have had no trouble sticking at least 3 past them. This may have put a sticking plaster over the wound but it will soon fall off.
As soon as they come up against any half decent opposition (probably next game) they will be lose unless they play with more composure. Still to many basic errors and not enough skill/ability to keep the ball.

At least they won though...............just!

p.s. Thought Milner had a great game but he looked cream crackered half way through the second half. It`s probably put another couple of million on his price tag

Matty, England won and they was playing with alot more composure and with the spirts been high they can only improve now, Gerrard has now been given a more free role and Defoe is on form, not sure what to do about Rooney, but Joe Cole was little shining star.

Joe cole has always been a shining star, rooney needs his arse kicking as do most of the England players.

I wish i could get paid that much for doing a ****** poor job.!!
Congrats on the win lads but you`ve been **** in this competition so far.

Buck your idea`s up ffs.

Play to win and feel like you will win.
