Little hung over, but still looking forward to this match. Have seen all of England's games and am finally starting to know some of the names.

Any bets I should be considering? Predictions? Things to watch for in the match?

[Mudcat]

I look for players to get quite thirsty with all that running around.

I have no predictions but will be cheering for England just because I think it would make more people around me (both here in Toronto and here in the forum) happy. I think I even have some English blood in me from way back. I know I have lots of Scottish blood. Does that count?

Whatever. Go England!

pfff...small bet on Ecuador +1 +114 here

[Terris]

arghh...that should have been a goal for Ecu

[Terris]

That lucky Beckham!

[Terris]

draw for me with +1...but still sucks, England was *not* the better team imo.

[bigboydan]

what a game. a free kick in the 60th minute gets england the win.

[Illusion]

I was gonna take Ecuador, but missed placing my bet by 10 minutes. It would have been a nice payout, but now I am glad I missed out.

That lucky Beckham!

There was no luck there, that was his trademark free kick. Absolutely fabulous shot.

Absolutely agree with that - he was unlucky not to have been credited with a similar goal in the opener against Paraguay. The free kick was from further out but glanced off a defender before going in.

I was kidding around in an effort to give Terris a hard time. You are correct, he does that in his sleep. I was also impressed with Rooney late in the game. That guy is a real bulldog.
