We have a better team than them, but that doesn't mean squat if that team isn't as up for the game as the other side which is why this World Cup has been so surprising.

"up for the game" = "playing like a bunch of dicks" in our opponents' case. I was watching it on the French telly last night and I didn't notice the commentators making a fuss out of the Colombian player kicking up the penalty spot while his team mates were haranguing the ref for 4 minutes. That's a Van Dijkshit thing to do.

Danish commentators were all over the Colombians. They have plenty of good footballers to actually play football rather than the shit show and unsportsmanlike behaviour they put up

I watched the England game in Aarhus on the massive screen they have set up by the docks - most of the locals seemed pretty disgusted with what the Colombians were up to, apart from the surprisingly large number of Colobians actually there.

I also got one of the locals to update his Facebook status with "It's coming home" :)

I just feel whenever the going gets tough Roberto runs out of ideas since Belgium just look terrible at times, like the last quarter of this game so far.

First time in World Cup history that none of Germany, Argentina or Brazil have been in the semis.

All European semi-finals then
If you really count Russia being European.

Hope they dont make it through. And belgium beat france. Ofc i would love a belgium england final. But if not Croatia would be great.

So @Yoni has her first test of her new Swedishness. What's it going to be @Yoni? (And no copping out by claiming the IoM isn't England anyway ;))
I’m from Oxford... only lived on IoM... My heart is in Sweden, however either way today I win :). We are avoiding it altogether by going to the cinema to see Antman and the Wasp :p

Gotta be honest, Sweden look disinterested all over the place, England are playing 100% and chasing every single ball. England deserve this.

Only the 2nd time in my life England have been in a semi-final. Not gonna lie I shed a tear at full time seeing the reactions of our squad and Coach.
