Thank you, A19 ... Here's another ... Argentina is on fire .....

.......... The passing on their second of six goals today made for the finest goal of the tournament to date. A back heel from Crespo let Cambiasso of Inter Milan deliver to the back of the "ol' onion bag." It was a goal of stunning beauty that will be reshown throughout the tournament and the decade. There were at least seven one-touch passes involved in the lead up.

Argentina has so much talent up front that it is questionable whether anybody can stay with them. Lionel Messi came off the bench with an injury to set up a goal and score one. This is one of the finest "teams" ever assembled.

England needs to finish ahead of Sweden to avoid Argentina in the second round. Everything gets weird, though, when teams clinch spots in the second round. England has done so. You have to rest starters and avoid yellow cards.
