Totti
At the very death…the very last minute the Italians booked their place in the quater-finals.
Was it a deserving win? far from it of course,the Aussie’s produced much more in this game to suggest that the were the rightful owner of a place in the last 8 but this is football,it’s nothing about ‘deserving’ it’s all [...]

I just [...]

0-0 that’s how it ended in the Group C final match between two of football’s powerhouse-Argentina and Holland.
The match to begin with lost some of it’s potential lustre after both teams winning their first two games,which meant both already qualified before the match started,and as expected both teams rested their key players.
Argentina gave rest to [...]

England yet again failed to beat Sweden,and it now strectches to 38 years,yet they could have eliminated that record if they had been more vigilant.
England’s hopes look to be dented from the start as Michael Owen pratically injured himself with a freak twist of the knee 60 seconds into the game.Owen [...]
