wings likes england
Stoichkov's playing on the wing, in this situation he likes to come in and scalp the centre-half.
funny football afl
I never comment on referees and I'm not going to break the habit of a lifetime for that prat.
football past men
You can see the ball go past them, or the man, but you'll never see both man and ball go past at the same time. So if the ball goes past, the man won't, or if the man goes past, they'll take the ball.
fire goal what-if
I tell you what, if the Cameroons get a goal back here they're literally gonna catch on fire.
soccer football taken
One of the reserves came up to me and said 'I'm finding it a bit hard, it's the first time I've ever been dropped'. So I told him to do what Nick Faldo does and work at his game. Next thing I know he's doing exactly what Faldo does, he's taken up golf.

fields england attacking
