Missed it
Posted in World Cup ‘06 on June 10th, 2006
From the NY Times World Cup blog:
3 GOOOOOAAAALLLLL ENGLAND! Beckham with a free kick from about 30 yards away, a dangerous bending ball into the box, and they all leaped for it, and the defender Gamarra tipped it on the header past Villar and into the net. England 1, Paraguay 0.
Looking at the re-play at the moment, that should have legitimately been Beckham’s goal.
And in breaking news, this:
the German media voted Roque Santa Cruz the most handsome player at the World Cup, with Spain’s Raul finishing second — both of them ahead of David Beckham.
While I missed the goal, I’ve watched most of the half. Englaind is playing awfully boring soccer. Fortunately for the Three Lions, Paraguay is playing equally boring soccer.
