Followed by BBC2 5pm Canadian Grand Prix qualifying
Followed by ITV England v USA.

Argentina look good. I would rather England won the World Cup rather than Maradonna get his fat greasy hands on that trophie again. I like the Argentina team, but I detest Maradonna

Didn't it have something to do with advertisements, the US channels not being willing to air 45 minutes of uninterrupted match footage?

Also, i'm not overly impressed by Argentina to be honest. Thought they were widely considered the strongest team..? They're missing some killer instinct today or something, i don't know.

*roots for underdog Nigeria* :D

Serbia vs Ghana is shaping up nicely though - first real good game so far. None of the first match nerves you would expect. I expect to see a red card in this match as well sooner rather than later
