FIFA World Cup 2006 - Day 2

Prediction:

    England over Paraguay 1-0.
    Trinidad and Tobago to go down to Sweden 0-8.
    Argentina over Ivory Coast 2-0.
Result:
    England: 1 - Paraguay: 0
    Trinidad and Tobago: 0 - Sweden: 0
    Argentina: 2 - Ivory Coast: 1
Summary:
Despite England's victory it was a disappointing performance and came as a result of a disputed own goal by the Paraguyan captain. T&T's dogged resistance against the constant Swedish attacks showed true heart. A great demonstration of what a minnow can achieve. Still I don't expect them to achieve much more. Argentina steam rolled Ivory Coast as expected. I'm a little surprised that IC managed to score however.
