Whilst I'm happy that strangers representing "my" country in a sports tournament have beaten an opposing team, I wonder what might have happened if that penalty had not been awarded?
Was nice to see someone spewing claret from their nose though.
Make them earn that obscene wage.
And in other news, teachers in New York are protesting at the cutting of almost $2million from the education department budget with the fear that many inner city school will have to close.

A gaucho.

No offence but if you watched the game properly you would realise that england played better and deserved the win.
Doesn't matter who "deserved" to win, simple fact is the only goal scored was due to being a few feet away with a direct free shot at it.

This is truly a disgrace.
All those children will suffer aloss of education.
Why, they'll grow up as ignorant as the Argies.

Goatboy doesn't follow football and has no particular allegiance to England.
Goatboy sat and watched and saw Beckham score from a few feet away from a penalty, whilst the rest of the match was spent fouling and end-to-end.
Maybe I watched a different game with lots of goals?
So it was a penalty. It's all part of the game. They fouled, we scored. A goal is a goal, whether from open play, penalty spot, or deflected off goalkeepers butt! We scored, they didn't - hence a deserved win! :-)
Ball is feet away, you take a run up and it's 50/50 that it goes in.
When not handed the chance on a plate, it's bouncing off posts and going wide.
