I know there are a lot of people very unhappy to see Argentina win, but there's nothing that makes me happier in international soccer than watching the English lose, and the Argentina haters will have their day in the sun on the 19th.
Same, and this was an absolutely perfect way to do it. There is nothing funnier than the world letting England get to the stage where it thinks it might be relevant again, only to snatch the hope away at the last minute.
They can bring it* home again!

Getting pantsed by the French would be the icing on the cake that I've already mostly devoured.
