Whew

Okay, we're still okay. England tied Algeria 0-0, so if we beat Algeria on Wednesday then we're on to the death-or-glory rounds.

But you know, I have to say, everyone keeps going on about how terrible England was--and they were pretty terrible--but there's also the fact that Algeria did quite well. They legitimately held their own. We shouldn't underestimate them in the upcoming match (nor should we play like we did for the first half this morning...crimenently, guys, the whole coming-from-behind thing is dramatic and exciting when it works out, but let's try scoring first once in a while).
