Can't say that I expected France, kings of the unforced collapse, fighting back from 2-0 down to win. Fighting each other on the pitch? Maybe.
 
To be (un)fair Ukraine were down to 10 men, and they're not very good in the first place.
 
As funny as it would be to see France fail to qualify, Ukraine would be so boring at the World Cup.
 
Wonder what sort of odds you could get for JWP's first PL goal coming from a direct free kick.

Did anyone watch the U21's? How did Prowsey get on?

As said, scored from a lovely free kick. Quite disgraceful though, they let Ince take corners from one side. BT had time for one interview, so of course they chose JPW and Shaw...I expect they wanted James, but Shaw had positioned himself next to him. Shaw is coming over better in interviews now. The commentators were full of praise for both of them...remarking on what polite level-headed lads they were. Saints know how to raise children. When asked who might make it through to the seniors, Owen Hargreaves named Shaw first, then JPW (and 1 other, but obviously not interested in him :)).

I don't think Hargreaves is up with the fashion. On form, if I was going to pick one to try in the seniors first I think I'd go for JWP. Followed closely by Shaw, of course.

I was really starting to feel sorry for the San Marino lads. There ought to be some interim competition between teams like Gibraltar, Andorra, San Marino, Luxembourg and Liechtenstein, etc... otherwise all they'll experience in football is a walloping. I presume they all have official U21 sides.
 
I've come to a decision. I'm supporting Italy at the World Cup.

Because: 1) My wife
2) Osvaldo.

If I can be bothered with international matches, due to the usual paucity of Saints players [the astonishing omission of MLT started it] in the squad, I have two countries anyway. England and Italy. I'm interested in both doing well and I continue watching until the last one drops out of the competition**. This time round there may be a surfeit of Saints..!

**That usually means I end up watching Italy.
