"Hang in there"
I'm trying believe me!
I´d be surprised if Portugal scores until the ref whistles. We´re going into the extra time, and Portugal has never had an extra time in a world cup match.
If the English team is having trouble with the heat, perhaps next time they should train in the concourses and bus stops at Heathrow...they're greenhouse-hot.
"Could've heard a pin drop in the pub when Argentina won the match in penalty kicks."
All you could hear were glasses smashing in my local!
Scotland has it's own national squad. The served up a DNQ in this years Cup.
Come on, Portugal has never won a world cup game in an extra time. On the other hand, they´ve never lost a game in extra time.... they simply haven´t had extra time! ;-)
Three minutes of stoppage time.
Good idea. Same way NFL players have trouble when they come to Miami.
WHAT A CHANCE FOR ENGLAND!!! ANOTHER CORNER!!
Great play by Hargreaves!
PORT Keeper did a nice job there. Crouchy needs to get some air and win those!
Scotland always has a team in the WC. It's whoever's playing England.
Hah!
Lots of chances for England, just couldn't find the net - wow those were close
EXTRA TIME. 0-0 after 90 minutes.
Different position, but very similar physique.
Hehe, yep, that game lives because of the excitement for the teams and their fans.
