Today it was England's first attempt at being able to prove they aren't just men that kick a ball around ... They showed Talent in the way they played in their match Vs Slovenia . Bets were being placed for a 3-0 win to England for many... Although it was only a 1-0 win to England that's better than nothing to us.
The goal was scored in the first 10mins by Jermaine Defoe. England were now forever hoping that Slovenia were not gonna match them . Luckily we had the BEST England Goalkeeper in goal... David James. After saving at least 5 attempts from Slovenia he still kept his cool through the game, and if Slovenia were close to knocking it ,he'd be right up there ready to block it. It never failed once. Near the end of the match Slovenia knocked the ball to goal ,and James just missed it ... everyone at home was sighing ,nut luckily it was the wrong camera angle and actually went passed the left side of the goal... The slo-mo of James showed him miming 'F****** Superb' ... This of course boosted England's Courage and they were sure that if they kept this up for the last few minutes they were through...
Ashley Cole played well tonight after tackling numerous amount of times ,he deffinately played a big part in the match . Our so called 'STAR PLAYERS' deffinately were not up to their normal skills , Rooney seemed very tired and almost bored ,and Gerard simply could not pass it to the rest of him team, whether this was because no-one joined him up front near the goal was not posible to tell.
Rooney was taken off near the end of the match since he was seen limping down the pitch from a knee injury , he was swapped with Joe Cole , although Capello took off a good player , he was right to re-place him with an equally good player. Johnson was given a yellow card ... This was as the referee saw as a foul to the Slovenian player , although it was actually caught in camera that it was the Slovenians fault. The commentators were saying that that was unfair and the ref' shouldn't of given out a yellow card to the England player.
After three minutes of added time England kept their cool and won the game ... Slovenia just weren't up to the high standards of England Obviously !
America were playing at the same time as England and also won 1-0 , this means U.S.A. are at the top of the board and that England are gonna have to play against Germany , although that match hasn't taken place yet it's pretty certain that Germany will win as they are an incredibly good team... Will England be able to win that match .... We'll soon find out :)
