No, really. Cor.

Four players sent off, sixteen yellow cards and stand up fist fights.

That's entertainment. It ain't football, but it is entertainment.

And yet, between bad tempered outbursts, there was some decent play from both sides.

Holland should have played Van Nistelrooy - couldn't win without him (apparently)!

Actually, can't believe just how poor they were tonight. Interesting watch though. Made the Australia/Croatia match look quite tame by comparison.

Old Van Nostriljob isn't at the top of his game right now - He's fallen foul of Sir Fergus Alexson, and the teams in Italy who are interested in him may well be relegated for match fixing.

Where does that leave his £90,000 a week pay packet?

Fist fights? Maybe that game would have been worth watching. But probably not!
