England 2 - 3 Croatia
Lucas has just turned 6 years old. I am sure that if I asked him this question, he would get it right.
1. In the first half of a football match you play a 4-5-1 formation and go 0-2 down. For most of the second half you play 4-4-2 and score 2 goals without reply. What formation should you use for the rest of the match?
a) 4-5-1
b) 4-4-2
c) It doesn't really matter, because we're just going to loop the ball into the penalty box for the last 15 minutes and hope there aren't any opposition players there.
Well, sorry to say that England and their manager got it wrong, and went for a combo of a) and c).
...and to think that I got up at 4am to watch the match.
My suggestion that the game might feature a cock-up by Carson proved to be correct!

maybe he should've picked robinson after all. and not dropped beckham. he provided the impetus for crouch's goal, no? one is left wondering what might have been?
