World Mug Knock-out round

Sweden v. England was a tense game. Twice it looked like England was going to win but then Sweden scored another goal to set it back to a tie. The most tense moment was the last five minutes. It had been 1-1 for a while, then England scored another goal and I thought it was over, but in the last couple of minutes Sweden nicked the ball into the goal one last time. The game ended with a 2-2 draw which meant that both teams went through to the knock-out stage as 1st place (England) and runner-up (Sweden).

Today at 3pm Sweden faces Germany. We have high hopes, but we're bracing ourselves for a less-than-favourable outcome because the German team is pretty good. I suppose we should have swedish meatballs for lunch today.

Then tomorrow it's England v. Ecuador.
