| Originally posted by Mr. Pink so far Ecuador's zone defense has been just right against the English. They always have at least a 2 on 1 outcome when England is on the offense. Ecuador's midfield is too much for them. im hoping Ecuador pulls an upset in the 2nd half and wins 1-0 |
What horrible calls were made against Ecuador. The ref looked like he was playing favorites or something. On certain fouls made by England that were pretty obvious and the ref dismissed it. I call shenanigans!
On a more serious note I'm rooting for Ecuador, but I feel England might take this.

shoddy performance on england's servicing to rooney, but he also needs to move the ball around more, he had 2 great asisting opp's never took either.. hope he learns in the coming half. GO ENGLAND! GOD SAVE THE QUEEN!
Gerrard for a goal 
Joe Cole for an assist
gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
nice goal by becks
The goalkeeper could've done a lot better on that shot from David Beckham, and the players in the wall should not have moved like they did for the second time today, but a goal is a goal.
Would be nice to see extra time, followed by penalties, But I doubt it..
keeper couldn't do shit.... becks put that thing right next to the post.... beautiful ball....
nice goal by beckham

England doesn't play a shit, but keeps winning.
oh well.
and beckham's wife and her friend.....omg, so hot
thank fuck for that
Great goal, I guess the keeper could have been a little to the right but I don't think he would have gotten it still, not with the trajectory and pace of it. Rooney was creating havoc the last 30 minutes, looks like he woke up. Gerrard had the bad miss on one pass from him. Still think 2 forwards with Crouch is the way to go or they are going to continue to have trouble scoring.
Nice seeing Posh's tits when Becks scored. Thanks Becks.
Terrible game, I nearly slept in the 2nd half.
Either England magically starts performing a lot better, or they're getting knocked out by whoever wins Portugal-Holland. The prospect of a revenge against us could stimulate them, but if they face the dutch (who I do know haven't been great neither) they're not going through.
God, what's happening with England these days? Where are the days of attractive, quick pressure football? How can a bunch of highly talented individuals sum up to such a lame team? I really hope for England to be "reborn" on every match of this WC, yet it seems to get only worse. The only highlights were Rooney (a fighter with great technical skills) and Beck's anticipated genious strike.
well although we didnt dazzle, Ecuador didnt worry England much in the second half. We generally looked in control and got a professional victory. Rooney, Ashley Cole, Carrick, Gerrard and Lennon all played well. Lampard again was very poor tho so he needs to pull his finger out!
Another win for England, and that's about it. In what I consider the worst game of the WC, England simply played at the sufficient pace needed to win this game.
Ecuador simply proved what everyone had already been thinking, that group A was by far the weakest group in the competition. Times like these you just wonder how teams like Czech Republic or Ivory Coast got knocked out of the WC and then you see Ecuador... pretty much happy that they only lost 1-0 to England, too mediocre for my taste.
I can not even blame England for not trying harder because if I knew that barely playing football I'd reach quarter finals, I'd do the same as well, saving strengths for the rest of the competition. I'm not saying England will magically win quarter finals vs Portugal-Holland, but England will play a whole different match in quarter finals, no doubts about it.
outside of becks and posh....what a snoozefest

beckham saved the team, and sven g�ran eriksson
dirty win imo. No intention at all from england to play footbal. just waiting for a moment of shrek and a free kick from beckham
I think England cant win the quarter final against the dutchies/portugal if they keep playing this way..
