Infuriation at the Fan Mile: Half time, England 0 - 0 Trinidad and Tobago

This is the infuriating part of being a football fan. Despite having at least three clear chances to score, England have managed to ensure that T/T has a clean sheet. The audience here is made up of Englishmen and Swedes (apparently 35,000 of them have converged on Berlin for the Sweden-Paraguay game), with the Scandinavians supporting - guess who.

Despite the scoreline, the English fans seem quite upbeat. Perhaps it’s because the sun has finally hidden behind some clouds for the first time in a week, making the temperature bearable.

England neesd to keep at it. Professional, that’s the word. This isn’t the time for passion nor for ill-disciplined creativity. Just keep it simple.

Nevertheless, this game has the word ‘upset’ scrawled all over it and I would not be surprised if they don’t take three points from the game.

NB: England won with goals from Crouch (despite playing horribly for most of the game and fouling a Trinidian by pulling on his pony tail while jumping for the ball) and Gerrard (a stunner with the wrong foot from outside the box).
