Sweden - England 1 - 1
Sweden - Nigeria 2 - 1
Sweden - Argentina 1- 1

We won our group(hardest group in the World Cup) and will play Senegal in the Second Round.....

We have a good chance of winning the Cup now

-MAX

never gave a chance to sweden to win this group! i thought
decision for the second place would be between sweden and
england. very solid those scandinavians sweden and denmark
and larsson is back like in his best days

I feel bad for Argentina. I really like their players compared to teams like Spain, Portugal and Brazil who i can't stand.

Sweden played great throughout their games. I like their style of play and did enough to sneak up on people and take the group.

I didn't watch the England game but how can you not win that game? What would have happened if Nigeria had put in a lucky goal? Out of the WC!

I still love the way the Irish are playing.

I AM EXTREMELY NERVOUS FOR THE ITALY-MEXICO GAME. They will be playing in a downpour of rain like the Portugal game the other day. I'm crossing my fingures because if Italy can advance the final could be alot easier than earlier predicted. Also i'm hoping they don't sit back if they score an early goal. They must now proove themselves.

I don't blame you for being concerned about Italy-Mexico, but I think Italy will win because they have to and they never (help me out with the history) seem to crash out of early rounds. Still, Mexico is particularly dangerous at the moment because they're becoming more confident and I think they'll be comfortable with Italy's style of play. I'm really looking forward to it.

The England game was garbage

0-0 against Nigeria after beating Argentina

Big disappointment

Now we face Denmark and potentially Brazil

My bet is that England will fall against Danmark, so you don´t even need to think about Brazil... How many goals did the english score in this first round? 2, one of them from the penalty spot and the other originated by a corner... They find it very difficult to create goal chances and lack creativity and strenght in the midfield. But i can be wrong, and football is such an umpredictable game... besides, they have an excellent coach!
It´s a real pitty the argentinans didn´t go through... well, i don´t like them especially, but as a soccer fan i´ve to be sad, they´re clearly one of the best teams in the world...
Lets see Italy tomorrow, i really don´t expect them to go out, but it will be a close match against Mexico. Croatia may take advantage of the mexican defeat, but still they´ll have to work hard to win against the equatorians...
Then, after tomorrow, Portugal-Korea and USA-Poland...

BUMP for Cure, who probably needs new underwear now, and manny who can vent his frustrations at having to listen to partying Italians somewhere around his home.
