"three lions"

this morning's match was probably one of the more exciting matches that i've seen in a while...despite the fact that i don't really watch all that much of football. england v portugal, down to penalties. awesome stuff. best of all, owen scored. pity that rooney had to be subbed, and you'd probably shudder to think about what would've happened if he'd stayed on. but i guess that you can say that he's already made his mark on the euro tournament, so...yes, that's one thing for him fulfilled. all in all, it really was an awesome match. there's nothing like seeing a match played to its hilt over extra time; how the ball keeps on rolling from one team to the other. i was shattered when portugal scored the silver goal...but more than elated when lampard [again, of all people] equalized in the least expected possible time.

i really do feel sad that england couldn't progress. but it truly was awesome footie.
