England won.. Obviously! =P

And there we have it. Their first match of the World Cup, and they win. 1-0, and although they did have quite a few opportunities, I must say they played extremely brilliantly. Their defence was also, wicked, unlike Germany, in yesterday's opening match.

There were quite a few surprises by Crouch and Beckham, I must admit. Crouch played beautifully, and his skills, finally shone through, today.

Beckham's Free kick, lead us to our first goal of the match, in the first 3 minutes of the game. Brilliantly delivered by Becks, and headed in by a Paraguain player, Gamarra!

The game became very tense in the second half. England were now, in lead with 58% for possession of the ball, and with having 8 shots, they were predicted to score, at least once more.

All in all, England played terrifically. Paraguay have some very talented players, and they also played very very well, even though they did not manage to score. Which hey, just makes it better for us.
Yaay for England.

=D
