I have been waiting for England to do well since 1966... This however isn't what I had in mind. I understand die-hard fans are ecstatic right now. But let's get real, who did they play on the way here, anyone more than just decent? Even if they get passed Croatia, still, even though Croatia is a kick-ass team, it won't be an epic road to the final by any stretch of imagination... What it might provide with is, however, a good confidence boost for future, which will be a very good thing of course. It may also provide with an opposite, an unjustified belief in their greatness, which will certainly bite back on the next big tournament.
