7-0?
Are you serious?
This doesn't happen on this side of the pond.
A team might qualify for the next round (not a picnic, it won't be) with two losses and a one goal win (Albania).
A draw for Slovakia would be fine against England ; and one for Wales too.
I've read a thing about Messi scoring three times, but that's Messi, man, he plays in Europe.
I'd like to see games from all over the world. Really.
French people went "what?" when André-Pierre Gignac left the old world to join Los Tigres in Mexico.
And guess what? He's back in the team. Not achieving much yesterday, as France was pretty happy not to play at all during the second half on a terrible terrible pitch.
Gignac played under Marcelo Bielsa, former Chile coach, when in Marseille. Bielsa divided the press a lot, but what he did really helped the team and some of the players improved their game (Payet for example).
I wish I could see the American games, to make comparisons, but I need sleep so much here (the noisiest place I've ever stayed at).
