Ecuador Vs Costa Rica
Ecuador 3 CR 0
Ecuador booked their passage into the second round of the World Cup finals with a 3-0 victory over Costa Rica in Hamburg. Carlos Tenorio and Agustin Delgado were on the scoresheet at the AOL Arena, along with substitute Ivan Kaviedes, to give the South Americans the win that sees them reach the second round for the first time in their history.
Ecuador is proving to be a surprise package man, they are playing so fluently. hope they do well against Germany.
England Vs TnT
England 2 TnT 0
Late goals from Peter Crouch and Steven Gerrard lifted England to a 2-0 win over Trinidad & Tobago. Sven Goran Eriksson was forced to call on Wayne Rooney well ahead of schedule. An exquisite Yorke corner exposed Robinson, but Carragher did superbly to put Stern John under just enough pressure at the far post as the Coventry man headed wide of goal. The scare sparked England into life and Lampard shot wastefully over following a scramble in the box, Beckham had a shot saved and Crouch, with the best chance of all, volleyed well wide after being found in acres of space by Beckham.
The final chance of the opening period went T&T's way, with Terry forced to hack off his own line after Robinson had failed to gather a deep ball from Edwards. Eriksson signalled his intent by throwing on Lennon at the same time as Rooney and the latter's first contribution, just 47 days after breaking his metatarsal, was to play in Ashley Cole with a neat pass, but the Arsenal man's cross was poor.
Lennon at least provided a bit of spark and he crossed for Crouch, but the giant striker's radar was once again awry as he headed over from six yards. Lampard was England's most threatening and profligate player and he squandered yet another decent chance 13 minutes from time when shooting straight at Hislop from inside the box. England appeared to have run out of ideas when Beckham tossed a deep cross into the box.
For the first time in two matches, Sancho was caught napping and Crouch climbed high to head past Hislop. Gerrard finally removed his leash and promptly slammed home a stunner from 25 yards, as England left it late to show their quality.
Man Of Match : David Beckham.
okay, i find it stupid of england to okay such a dumb formation. -_-" lampard just shoot n shoot with bloody blind accuracy. wth. why not ask him defend, n let gerrard play as attacking midfielder. he had one shot n its a goal . lampard had 3 or 4 n missed. go think eriksson, you're paid wad 4 million per years? go think hard. Even Killnessman coaches better den u. -_-"
