The Soccer Crusader

France 1-1 England, A brotherly peace

Predictable game, predictable result.  Both teams, playing first to avoid defeat, rather than winning. Yes, France did have an edge over England, but that was not enough.

Ukraine 2-1 Sweden, “Soccer Gratia Soccer”

We finally got our first real soccer game, the most entertaining one so far. Ukraine was a nice surprise indeed. And seeing Shevchenko scoring two goals at 35 it’s a delight. His second goal really takes skill & experience. Sweden, somewhat unlucky, should have done better.

This group has the potential to become the craziest of them all.
