Well, England are out of another World Cup. At least it wasn't a dull
game, & we led for a while. There's more to be proud of though; this
year, for once, we didn't throw it all away. A defence beaten only by
flashes of brilliance from Brazil, & a battling spirit which had us
pushing forwards right down to the wire, it's no wonder the fans were
singing long after the final whistle blew time on another
international campaign.
Maybe it's the team's coming-of-age that's bringing new levels of
skill with it, or maybe it's Sven's calming influence, but England
never looked like the riff-raff we're used to seeing on the
international stage. At all times we battled, & often we won. The
lads can come home with heads held high; the 3 lions are still
roaring, & are not ready to be silenced yet.
Bob.
