    Are they considered one of the bigger teams? Just curious.

    We would be hearing the English media over hear and they will obviously presume they are one of the favorites but in the wider scheme of things where would they be seen in the rankings?

    They're bigger than Algeria :P I don't really care who wins overall, but as a neutral watching games I like when the team considered to be weakest do well

    I'm not because they're the most arrogant arseholes ever when it comes to football and they think they're always gonna win(or that they even have a hope), it's incredibly annoying.

    Well yes, but that's all stirred up by the press. Most of the English people I know take the piss at how the press go on.

    I know that the tabloids do go OTT, but there's nothing wrong with thinking they have a hope. If Ireland were in the WC, I'm sure our press would be trying to stir up some unrealistic optimism!

    the speed of that shot was unreal when they showed the replay from behind the goal. Unlucky not to score.

    This game has had everything.

    A goal, a red card, a missed pentalty, several shots hitting the woodwork, good attacking football and two commentators that are totally caught up in the moment.
    Zigic, the monster of a striker.

    Classic

    Would have thought Vidic needed a red card for that. Cant believe he missed the penalty.
    Then Serbia hitting the upright.
    Blooming balls.
