Whats with the German coaches and their matching Cardigans and T-shirts, they deserved to lose for that alone.

RTE, with reference to the rule book, say that the yellow card for Vidic was the correct decision from the ref.

Probably ensures England will play Germany or Serbia next, no easy game for them anyway.
Germany might not qualify if Ghana and Serbia win their remaining matches and get a decent gd.

If Podilski had got the line instead of Klose they'd have won 3-1.

Schkite

Reckon Germany will still finish top.

True, but I think Germany will beat Ghana easily enough.

I like the prospect of England v Germany in the second round.

The co-commentator on RTE talked an awful lot of shite. Ref was quite poor all right but it seems to me that they have been giving soft frees in all the games so far but maybe I'm too used to watching English football. Serbia have some really good players, Krasic (spelling?) especially.

2-0 great goal plenty of shocks in these 2nd round fixtures just what this world cup needed to bring it to life 

I put 10 euro on Forlan to score & Mexico v Uruguay to finish 1-1 at odds of 22/1  8)
The key to success is to be consistently competitive -- if you bang on the door often it will open

What is the benefit of topping the group? 

I ask this as if things go as they stand, will Slovenia want to beat England in the last game. 
I have more respect for a man
that says what he means and

If you're top you'll play a second place finisher in another group.  I think Slovenia are through already if they win.

The two in England's would want to avoid Germany if they make it through. England v Slovenia is before Germany v Ghana. Germany will have to win that one.
