    As a Man United fan, kind of crazy that Ashley Young (who was left for dead except for cup games until about 6 months ago) and Jesse Lingard (who is the definition of just OK) are starters for a semi-final team. But the parts are working very well together.

    Might also have lost to Colombia instead of squeaking by Japan.

    England hangs on and I may just have to make my way down to stand in the 100-deep crowd outside of the Kings Head in SaMo at 8 am Sunday.

    I’m drunk with about 300 English at a pub in Orlando. There’s a brass band playing Rule Britannia. Another goal may destroy the place.

    What a waste of good beer. Pound that baby back then throw in the air.

    When Brazil won in '94, I was with a crowd of their fans in an Allston bar who threw pitchers of beer up in the air into the the ceiling fans. Very effective at drenching everyone.
    So far, FIFA's feed has yet to show any cute girls or cute kids among the English fans in the crowd. Maybe they didn't bring any.

    England missed some great chances in the first half. I think they'll pay for it in the second.

    Croatia comeback.
