Having watched most first-round and a few second-round matches, I think it’s fair to say that no team has been outstanding. So many defensive errors, forwards with wayward shots, and listless midfielders. England have probably looked the best (albeit for only 25 minutes). Russia a big surprise, though: thank gods they have no history of drug-taking in their sports or else it might raise suspicions…
Good performance by Croatia last night to beat a very poor Argentina. Team looks solid, so no hope of an appearance by our local boys Hathersic, Burbic, and Stanic. Maybe Spinic and Futbolpic will get a look in.
