the 1 goal T&T had at the very end vs england that was called back for off sides where he kicked the ball from behind was the probably coolest shot ive seen yet

[FrieChamp]

Crouch pulled that dude's hair when he scored, not cool

OK, so Argentina are TOTALLY the team to beat. If they keep up that form, they're winning the cup.

6-0! Cambiasso! Saviola! Messi! Amazing!

Darnit they lied to me. I thought england was supposed to play today at 9:55 AM PST against.... Ghana I think. Grrr

[Spellbinder]

Yay! Congrats RD! Holland beat some team i dont know about even with 2-1. You go Holland. At least until you meet Sweden

[Minos]

oh netherlands vs ivory coast was a pretty cool match! Ivory coast deserved to win though, they acted like braves, fighted for every ball and were a lot more motivated than netherlands (in the second half at least).

so what's next now, Mexico vs Angola ?

[von*ferret]

I saw mexico scheduled for espn. When is USA or Britain!!?!?

[mabufo]

USA plays tomarrow.

[Mojo]

2:30 Eastern / 1:30 Central for US game

Good game between Mexico and Angola. They still have a shot of advancing to the Second Round if Iran wins next game.

England game was yesterday

It was against Serbia and Montenegro...not exactly the best side in the world. Latest rankings (May06) placed the Argies at 9th in world, S&M 44th.

What happens during a draw anyway? Re-match?

I watched highlights of the last England match, Trinidad certainly weren't going to let their guard down for awhile, though it was never going to last
