England team:

 

James, Johnson, Cole, Barry, Ferdinand, Terry, Lennon, Lampard, Crouch, Rooney, Gerrard.

 

Looks like it'll be Gerrard on the left unless Rooney goes out there.

Pazzini sent off for elbowing O'Shea.

 

Seemed harsh to me!

The diving by the Italians is a disgrace. Pirlo and Iaquinta in particular so far.

The stuff by england isn't too shabby either. Wooney just jumped miles.

[surf]

huntelaar is starting to look the business. van nistelrooy is a hard act to follow, but with 13 goals in 21 internationals huntelaar isn't doing badly

 

huntelaar, sneijder, robben, kuyt, van persie.......anyone wanna swap van der vaart for a holding midfielder or a decent defender?

[surf]

sneijder's like a more advanced xabi. cool on the ball, two footed and more mobile as well

[Shirohana]

Xabi for Spain 1-1 from the penalty spot

[surf]

kuyt with his second, 3-0

 

needed about half an hour to control it in the box, but the macedonian defence didnt manage to close him down

[smithdown]

Voronin is literally bleeding blood for the cause

[Nebraska Red]

Ballack's goal was a corker.

 

Germany 1 up at HT

[Nebraska Red]

Croucheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee as my Chinese commentator just screamed

[Jim D]

15 goals in 15 starts for Crouch now for England. Why was he behind Cole, Bent and Heskey in the pecking order?

[Nebraska Red]

good effort by Torres, saved for a corner.

[fellafeen]

good effort by Torres, saved for a corner.
