england beat paraguay earlier today, 1-0, and trinidad and tobago just finished battling to a scoreless finish, but the match that matters most to me begins in less than an hour... while i am not nor have i ever been much of a sports fan, i know that an abnormal quiet is going to take over from the usual busy hum of a saturday afternoon in argentina... from the bolivian border to cape horn, there will be few people who won't be glued to a tv set... check it all out here...
