well, if it's at all possible, it'd be nice. i can't watch or tape this one, but if you can't do it i can always find a pbp somewhere else. go latvia!

i was hoping germany would start schweinsteiger for this one. that kid looks like an exciting young player. i'd just like to pat myself on the back by saying he was on my fifa play station scunthorpe united side.

Why are German defenders, especially Worns, getting allowed to be able to do this? That, along with Ruud's goal should have been a yellow card.
