Tonight the last World Cup Finalists play and only if they win can they progress (France and Italy being bottom of their group)...

A game where a draw is a defeat for either team? Could be great. I'll be watching I hope...

I've just watched footytube's version of Italy vs France. The sooner the Italians get knocked out, the better. The "penalty" came when Toni decided that he hadn't sufficient control of the ball to score; the contact was not sufficient to cause a ten year old to fall. The free kick which led to the goal is similar. Throughout the game beaten Italians fell, realized they hadn't managed to get a free kick, bounced back up again. They're the South Americans of Europe. Show them the road home.

Nice goals by the Dutch "B" team. Van Persie's top goals are worth watching:

With Romania's defeat, Inverness Caley Thistle can relax:

BTW There's also an Inverness Caledonian Thistle. I blame Culloden for the confusion.
