No music, just wanted to say that Trinidad and Tobago TIED Sweden today. Unfortunately I had to get on a bus about 20 minutes into the second half, but what I did see was glorious. T&T were clearly severely outgunned, but they played like maniacs, the goalie (the second string goalie, no less) made a couple great saves, and Sweden just kept looking more and more frustrated. It will still be pretty tough for T&T to make it to the next round, but wouldn´t it be awesome if they did?
In other news, I am settled in back in Oaxaca city for two days and then it´s back to the States. While I´m here, though, I´ll be able to watch Mexico (hopefully) beat the bejesus out of Iran tomorrow, and the US v. Czech Republic game on Monday (which I want the US to win, but I sure do like the Czechs, too).
So far, I´m 4 for 5 in picking the results (no, I didn´t have faith in Trinidad and Tobago, sadly).
Picks for tomorrow:
The Netherlands over Serbia-Montenegro
Mexico over Iran
Portugal over Angola
