    Apres match take on sky sports - breaking news on England team :D

    Definitely worth watching. Loved the Vitamin C specialist and the player interviews, especially Gerrard.

    TV - the special one usually makes an appearance on BBC3. I can not work out when it is on - they seem to use it as a filler before World Cup programmes.

    Uruguay will beat Ghana quite handily IMO. Far better team than the USA in defence, midfield and especially attack.

    Think so, Uruguay look very good, attacking flair coupled with <insert stereotypical phrases about Uruguayan football here> against Ghana <insert stereotypical phrases about African football here>

    We can have Brazil V. Uruguay, can Paraguay or Chile play Argentina in the other Semi?

    Thought it was a worth an outside bet, but being realistic.............

    Them Paraguayan wimminz are hot though. Dreams of Paraguay Vs. Argentina in mud wrestling.

    Did anyone notice Landon Donovan drop to his knees before he took the peno? Was he praying?

    He is probably hoping it will be included in the big blockbuster movie on his life as an American soccer player... oscar material...

    The Ghana goalie was seen on his knees praying before kick-off. Maybe it was Landicakes way of saying "my god is better than your god."

    Loved seeing England struggle to get through their group but I want them to beat Germany just so they can go on and face Argentina.
