Despite being the massive underdog in "the greatest mismatch in the World Cup," Trinidad and Tobago (rapidly my most beloved side in the entire tournament) has kept the much-favored England scoreless at the half. It would have been 0-1 Trinidad, even, if not for an absolutely
inhuman goal-line save by John Terry in the 45th minute. Terry basically kicked it backwards over his head and out of the goal. I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
GAME-OVER UPDATE: Ah well. They fought like hell until the end, when they just ran out of gas. Let's hope for a Sweden-Paraguay tie.
