I don't begrudge you the win - I just wish you hadn't pushed England into second place in your group, thereby setting up an England - Germany match on Sunday. I do predict a hangover England on Monday. Either they win - then they will get completely drunk to celebrate - or they lose - then they will have to drown their sorrows.

Spain, Brazil and Portugal all have a good shot at taking the crown in our absense. That's me with the ball in the cup. I do not fight fascists because I think I can win.
