SLOVENIA 0-1 ENGLAND / USA 1-0 ALGERIA

Relief.

Pure, unadulterated relief.

All we need now is for Wayne to score a goal. At the moment he's trying too hard and he doesn't look fit enough to do that. He should take a leaf out of regular reader of this blog Lionel Messi's book. Relax. Take some pressure off himself. Watch some cartoons.

Meanwhile, the USA are deservedly through but, having just watched him interviewed on the BBC, my goodness me: Landon Donavon is annoying.

Commentary-wise, Guy Mowbray was the shock choice for this one. Presumably John Motson has passed on, while Jonathan Pearce simply could not be dragged away from his buffet lunch. Elsewhere, Martin Keown was back behind the mic for the US-Algeria game...



THE STORY SO FAR

Match of the tournament: Portugal 7-0 North Korea

Player of the tournament: Diego Forlan (Uruguay)

Goal of the tournament: Tshabalala (South Africa v Mexico)
