    It's important to win every match KC. Winning is a habit and when teams rest players they can very easily lose the thread in competitions like this. I would have no fear of Germany - if they get through at all they are there for the taking this time.

    Fair point but they do have a few goals in hand. But thinking about it yup I'd try and avoid France <laugh>

    I'll leave the analysis to you Cologne and go back to biting my nails. I'm good at that <cheers>

    There is very little chance of Germany now winning their group and, at the moment, they would bite your hand off for second place.

    Couple of decent goals in this game - certainly competitive as you might expect.

    I feel quite lucky to have seen Behrami playing for Watford. As he became older and slower his brain often seemed to be ahead of the game, and I see he still plays quite a role for the Swiss. He seemed like a warrior in his time with us, and often was the leader of the team, never giving up.

    I do a few things, outsourced. Interpreting and translating mostly, tomorrow got a meeting to attend with Mexicans, Germans (speaking English) and me stuck in the middle! Hopefully, they'll be no mention of last Sunday! ahhaahhahaah

    Guys I know it is big for us English in Russia tomorrow but please don't forget the game at old Trafford :emoticon-0105-wink: England looking for a 5-0 whitewash in the ODI against the aussies.

    My family always believed 'Good things come in threes' so I'll take a Hamilton win in France as the third leg <bubbly> What a weekend

    Interesting this next game Belguim vs Tunisia. With all the combinations I'm not sure what we want. I think a draw would be best.

    I say that because if Tunisia win we could still be illiminated at the group stage even if we beat Panama (3 teams on 6 points)

    Funny old game. But for sure I'll watch hoping Belguim are limited to a one goal win at best. <cheers>

    Well now it looks like we will need to beat Belgium to go top of the group.

    Belgium 3 Tunisia 1

    C'mon Tunisia :emoticon-0148-yes:

    And worse now Hazard has scored the fourth. What a great finish. They are scoring for fun.

    Hopefully against them it will be a game we need nothing from to progress. :cool:
