Oh dear! How sad is this?
From the BBC: Denmark could be without leading scorer Jon Dahl Tomasson for the clash against England on Saturday. Reports from the Far East suggest Tomasson has been carrying a thigh injury for a while. Tomasson, who has scored three goals in his side's three group games, missed Thursday's training session, as did Sunderland goalkeeper Thomas Sorensen. Former Denmark international Jan Molby said: "It's a massive blow for Denmark. "All indications are that he will probably miss the game, He is the only player we can't do without.

Seen from a danish perspektive, the loss of Sørensen in goal would be worse, as the replacements have no international expirience whatsoever. [ 06-13-2002, 10:18 AM: Message edited by: Ar-Cunin ]

Another day is over and four more teams are ready for the next stage
Brazil, Turkey, Mexico and Italy Final Standings groups C Brazil..........11-3....9 Turkey........5-3.....4 Costa Rica...5-6.....4 China..........0-9.....0 and G Mexico.......4-2.....7 Italy..........4-3.....4 Croatia.......2-3.....3 Ecuador......2-4.....3 Although Brazil won all three games I'm not all that impressed - they had the easiest group and had the victory against Turkey gifted to them. We'll see how the do in the knock-out stage. And I won't count out Italy - they were robbed against Croatia (by a danish linesman ). I'm sure they be ready for their next match(es). And now the discusion can begin - which was the World Cup's worst team - Saudi Arabia or China? [ 06-13-2002, 10:57 AM: Message edited by: Ar-Cunin ]

Booo to Mexico for such an uneventful finish! That has to be a first in World-stage football. I've never seen such a terrible embarrassment to the game before. Passing the ball around for 4 minutes...terrible attitude..
