We're the third best team in the world mate, its understandable that people expect us to hammer everyone. I can't blame you for not being satisfied with just a 5-0 given our fearsome repuation.

haha http://www.fifa.com/worldranking/rankingtable/index.html says 5th here.

roy keane says go a little easy on san marino because they're only part timers, do the english people do so now, gareth southgate makes a joke about them playing a pub team next, lee dixon says they weren't even fit enough to run the pitch and adrian childes says it's hard to feel sympathy for them when they don't try and play. at least the guys go out there game after game and represent their country ffs, they've what drawn 1 game in 20 years or something stupid, show some respect you absolute weapons
 
I've always liked san marino, btw, just because of Bonini who was the best DM in the world at one point and yet refused to play for the boss 80s italian team with Zoff, Rossi et all because he considered himself san marineese despite being a dual international even though san marino didn't have an international team until he was 31.

He's one of those players like Gonzalez, Pilot or Best who was world class but came from an awful country. The footballing equilivant of Andy Murray if you like. And I admire his loyalty.

I'm reading so much win in this post.
 
I'm staying up to look for a stream of Argentina v Uruguay. 2.00 am (1.00 am GMT).

Messi, Aguero, Higuain and Di Maria vs Forlan, Cavani and Suarez

Several of the best attacking players on the planet. And a diving, racist snide

Should be good
 
USA looking bleak v. Antigua, 1-1 with ~20mins to go. Almost glad I couldn't find a stream.

Legitimately worried we won't make the WC Finals
 

US was terrible. Klinsmann setting them back a few decades. I would say in the second half, A&B actually had more good chances.
