Ends in a tie 2-2.
England has not beaten Sweden since 1968 ![]()
England should be happy with the draw, they will face Ecuador instead of Germany in next round.

Re: World Cup - Group B
2-2 Draw
England v Ecuador
Germany v Sweden
Re: World Cup - Group B
Big blunder by Englands defence let in the second goal by Sweden. England tops the group and avoids German in the next round. They will have to play much better to get any further.
Re: World Cup - Group B
What a disappointing second half by England. ![]()
I tell you with all the big names and low technique they don’t deserve to be in quarter finals, let alone winning a world cup in the presence of Brazil, Argentina and Portugal.
Re: World Cup - Group B
It was a game of two halves. First half it was all england and second half it was sweden.
Now we know why Campbell isnt in the starting eleven :p
Re: World Cup - Group B
Problem is not with their technial or non-technical players. Problem is negativity of their manager. They have enough technical quality in Cole, Gerrard and Rooney but they are not utilized with the flair when they play for their clubs.
Re: World Cup - Group B
:k: Bilkul Sahi… What a lousy defence… They were lucky not to lose 4-2.
This English team is not going beyong Quarters where their ass will be kicked by iether Netharland or Portugal. ![]()
Re: World Cup - Group B
haha... ooo well...what can i say ... wat a disappointing 2nd half by england... sweden reallllly get on their nerves... and finally made the game tie....
swedish team is better when it comes to defence...
Re: World Cup - Group B
Dont they have to get past Ecuador first? ![]()
Re: World Cup - Group B
It's a shame England didn't win. I wanted some chairs from Ikea for 1p.
Oh well at least my prediction was correct.
Re: World Cup - Group B
I have doubts but I think they will manage it.
Re: World Cup - Group B
You know England’s defence is supposed to be their best bet
and today it didnt look like so. Campbell is not a solid defender anymore and I am not sure why Rio Ferdinand was replaced.
Re: World Cup - Group B
Its easy to blame Campbell for that missed goal save, but you know Terry and Robinson were also within the close proximity of that cuckoo shot :D
Re: World Cup - Group B
Agreed. But even if it is 2nd defence it was very lousy any better team will punish them hard if they repeat this mistake. Swede were unlucky to not score more and 2 hit bounced back from pole.
Re: World Cup - Group B
Rio took a knock and was taken off as a precaution. He’ll be back to partner Terry for the last 16 with whom he has a very good parternship with and notably he’s a lot quicker than both him and Sol.
However England’s set piece defending was atrocious. They should have had someone big like Sol Campbell at the near post but instead they opted for, out of all the peope, David Beckham. Schoolboy stuff ![]()
Stevie G saved our backsides once again but repeat these mistakes again and it’ll be curtains.
Nonetheless we got the result needed and avoided Germany in the next phase. Bring on Ecuador.
Re: World Cup - Group B
Argghhhh!!!
The frustration of not beating Sweden once again is unbearable!!!
