Quarter Final: ENGLAND vs. PORTUGAL!

The stadium in Gelsenkirchen was brimming with noise, nerves and mainly England fans in red and white.

Appropriately enough, today was also Canada Day and so what a coincidence to be consumed in a sea of red and white people, deliriously happy from sun and drink. It would have been the exact atmosphere happening across the pond.

Unfortunately, Englad couldn't handle the pressue and lost after going all the way to penalty shots. There was drama up until the last moment and the now-famous incident of Rooney doing the crotch-stomp on Carvalho happened to a disgusted crowd of over 50,000.

Well, we definitely got our value for money. Gotta start saving up for the next World Cup in 2010: SOUTH AFRICA!
