England has QUALIFIED for 2006 World Cup
[url]http://home.skysports.com/list.asp?hlid=314546&cpid=4&CLID=&lid=4161&title=England+qualify+for+World+Cup&channel=skysports_home_page[/url]England will play in next summer's World Cup, with results elsewhere ensuring their participation in Germany in 2006.
[color=Red]Holland's triumph over Czech Republic[/color], coupled with England's win over Austria ensured that Sven Goran Eriksson's side are guaranteed a place in Germany 2006, as either one of the [color=Red]best runners up or, should they beat Poland on Wednesday, as a group winners. [/color]
The news will be a welcome relief for under fire England boss Eriksson, who watched his side scrape to a 1-0 victory but at the expense of captain David Beckham who was sent off.
Although England will look to get through a period of dreadful form, including two lacklustre 1-0 wins against Wales and Austria and a dismal defeat to Northern Ireland, with victory over Poland - it is no longer crucial to their qualification.
Holland beat Czech Republic 2-0 away from home, with Rafael van der Vaart and Barry Opdam likely to have made themselves popular figures in the England dressing room.
[color=Red]Swedish tactician Eriksson was thrilled with the news.
"Of course, I'm delighted," he said. "I didn't expect it to come so early. I expected us to have to beat Poland. But we now know we have qualified, which is fantastic. [/color]
"I'd like to thank the players, who have been absolutely brilliant. We know that we didn't perform well against Northern Ireland but today was fantastic and now we are at the World Cup.
"The tension for Wednesday's game will obviously now be much less.
"I know we have struggled this season but today I was very pleased. I know that in Germany, if we don't get too many injuries, we could do very well."
Eriksson's skipper Beckham added: "It's great. The lads are jumping around. It's nice to get through and it would be good to win the game on Wednesday and win the group.
"This team has stuck together, the manager has stuck by the players and we've got our just desserts tonight.
"There has been some criticism but we've taken it on the chin, got on with it and now we have qualified.
"Hopefully we can go all the way in Germany. If I didn't believe that, it would be wrong for me to be captain, but I genuinely believe it."
[color=Green][size=4][font=Verdana]Oh mate....I'm so delighted they are one of the best runners-up.....and now the match VS Poland suddenly became meaningless....
2 teams can qualify through the world cup as the best runners-up[/font][/size][/color]

下場隨時大勝,有冇碧咸就好閒,但冇壓力就好緊要,英格蘭隊波次次都係死在'壓力'之下,d無關痛癢賽事佢地成日都打得好(仲要主場) [quote]Originally posted by [i]ciger[/i] at 2005-10-9 14:49:

係呀。佢地係有實力，不過有時踼落就搏手搏腳，成日攻極都開唔到紀錄。 [quote]Originally posted by [i]shaqkobe[/i] at 2005-10-9 14:52:

英格蘭世界排名高,但國際賽成績屎(66年之後未贏過國際賽錦標,最叻都係入4強)排名成績唔成比例,都係因為佢地唔懂得應付壓力,d外圍賽友誼賽就成日贏攞好多分,但一到決賽週就最後階段就次次死,射親12碼都例輸 [quote]Originally posted by [i]ciger[/i] at 2005-10-9 15:01:

始終英格蘭都係以年輕球員掛師，老極果個算係今場至有既蘇金寶。太後生，對陣上黎經驗唔夠就難以發揮。雖然有拼勁，球員各有才華。但係各球員都效力世界頂級聯賽既球會，要佢地齊人練波都唔係易事。成日都無黎默契。 下一場對波蘭變左例行公事, 英格蘭派副選既後備踢都得lu;);) [quote]Originally posted by [i]Lap Hui[/i] at 2005-10-9 15:10:

如果係我會大部份照出正選。俾佢地再練默契又好，加強信心都好。 [quote]Originally posted by [i]shaqkobe[/i] at 2005-10-9 15:08:

咁巴西阿根廷咪仲慘,又唔見人冇默契,英格蘭除左碧咸之外全部都係踢英超,風格完全一樣,應該更易合拍 [quote]Originally posted by [i]ciger[/i] at 2005-10-9 15:19:

但係點解釋佢地成日無默契？？？唔通真係教得唔好？？ 希望碧咸可以上訴成功 la
如果唔係決賽周又要停一場 la
呢兩球都係球證針對同對方插水, 累到英格蘭贏唔到兩球... [quote]Originally posted by [i]shaqkobe[/i] at 2005-10-9 15:30:

佢地點解成日無默契我唔敢肯定,但通常用腦踢波嘅球員例如大細哨,列基美等就比較易有默契,因為佢地會因應臨場變化而做決定,睇定先交波,而且佢地比波係比落個位到,可以牽引隊友走位,但一些靠速度快打慢dup低頭死去嘅球員就差d,佢地交波要靠慣性,即係謝拉特攞住個波,一般黎講碧咸都會企在右邊,佢會睇都唔睇就交去右邊,但如果夾得少對隊友嘅習慣都未係好熟就容易出現默契不足嘅情況 [quote]Originally posted by [i]ciger[/i] at 2005-10-9 15:53:

咁即係英格蘭比賽上太少變化，用死一招。而球員又無充份的合作導致失誤頻頻？ 蘇甘保係咪受左傷呢?
英格蘭都幾剋阿仙奴....艾殊利高爾(唔記得係咪國家隊操練)
蘇甘保唔係第一次踢完國家隊搞成咁 [quote]Originally posted by [i]pc20001103b[/i] at 2005-10-9 16:31:
