Thanks Marco for the Modena video. Stefano Okaka scoring two and Lanzafame missing the goal, that’s gonna happen in Roma vs Juve 4 years from now so mark my words…

First ever loss for England at home.

25 novembre 1953. Prima sconfitta casalinga nella storia della nazionale inglese di calcio. I maestri dell’Inghilterra vengono sconfitti a Wembley, davanti a 100 mila tifosi, dall’invincibile Ungheria che s’impone con un rotondo 6-3. Ecco la successione delle reti: Hidegkuti 1-0 dopo 45 secondi, Sweel 1-1 al 13′, Hidegkuti 2-1 al 20′, Puskas 3-1 al 24′, Puskas 4-1 al 27′, Mortensen 4-2 al 38′, Bozsik 5-2 al 50′ , Hidegkuti 6-2 al 53′ e Ramsey 6-3 al 57′.

And too bad Palermo couldn’t do something about those damn bianconeri… oh well, it’s getting crowded at the top!

Nicklas Bendtner will be the bomb… too bad his playing time at Arsenal is limited. However love the nickname he has adopted, he sounds like a porn star – Nick Bendt!

Chris, don’t really know any good sites on Superligaen in english but I’ll look around. Otherwise don’t hesitate if you need a hand with having anything translated or getting any other inffo you might need.

And I don’t really know how we’re gonna fair in this group. We might both be watching from the sidelines in two years time Gabriella, for all I know. It is however IMPORTANT to wash away the memories of our last home game against Sweden. I was at the stadium – what a mess. And what an idiot fan trying to punch the ref. The guy should have been ceremoniously KO’d by Mikkel “The Viking Warrior” Kessler at a town square in Copenhagen!

CMP… Denmark can qualify from that group but it will be difficult. Hungary is getting better but it would take some time for us to be counted again as a nation that has any chance to qualify (hence my cunning plan to host WC2018…lol). Anyhow I really hope that this happens in my lifetime. It seems that we sorted out our youth system and some serious talent is coming through already. The future is bright for Hungary.

I believe the matches the top teams play against us will be the deciding ones, just like Georgia against Scotland.

CMP, after watching a couple cameos by Bendtner recently, I love this kid. Truly going to be a star. Denmark is in good hands, just wonder whether or not it will be in time for 2010.

Btw, do you know of any good sites on the Superligaen in English? I’m not prepared to learn Danish just yet.

Gabriella, we DO have a tough group. I’ll be looking forward to seeing Denmark run you over hehe. However all I care about is getting revenge over our yellow neighbours from Sweden… however a very open group. We’ll be fired up as hell since we didn’t make it to the european cup (or the world cup last summer).

I may regret saying this, but I am glad we have to go through qualifications. I think if we had auto qualification we would spend the next two years playing matches that mean nothing. That cannot help you get ready for a world cup.
