Well the Argentinian's finally managed to qualify for the world cup..but it was not an easy road especially after Maradona took over as manager..substitute Mario Bolatti scored in the 84th minute vs Uruguay to give them a place in south Africa..in other qualifiers Switzerland managed to hold Israel and book a spot to the world cup as also did Slovakia after beating Poland 1-0..Greece bt Luxembourg to get a playoff spot as did Ukraine with a huge 6-0 victory against Andorra..Portugal which had a horrible start also got a playoff spot and were joined by Slovenia...
Beckham was declared the man of the match in the game against Belarus which England won 3-0..he did look wierd in a beard though.. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/magazine/8311235.stm
but the most exciting match was US vs Costa Rica...an emotional team after striker Charlie Davies was seriously injured in an accident US held Costa Rica 2-2 by scoring in the last 20 seconds thus screwing Costa Rica and enabling Honduras a spot in the world cup..Costa Rica will now play Uruguay in the play offs...
