16:45 CET (10:45 a.m. Eastern) Friends, I'll throw the starting line-ups on here when they're available, and any last-minute talking points. Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments. If nothing else, I'll pop in with my expressions of joy or despair at halftime.

Come on you Blues.

The first thing making the rounds is that Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will start for England.

Poland 0, France 1

Hoarau
Valbuena Martin Cabaye N'Zogbia
A.Diarra
Evra Abidal Kaboul Sagna
Carrasso

This was the second run-out, by my count, of France's new-look 4-1-4-1, which is quite similar to Barcelona's 4-3-3.

Valbuena on the left is not a typo.

Paul The Octopus Gets A Shrine

WorldCupBlog at related • 0 views

Paul the Octopus is, at this point, nothing short of immortal. The octopus that will not die could not die, even if he chose to do so, as there's simply too much money to be made on an endearing mollusk medium.

The latest in a long line of postmortem reminders that Paul is everything that Vegas fears, just perhaps slightly less slimy: he's getting a permanent memorial at the aquarium which has hit the jackpot several times over already, hoping to inspire throngs of adoring Spaniards and fried octopus lovers into pilgrimages.

Post Game Thoughts: Costa Rica

France World Cup Team Blog at related • 2 views

When the game against Costa Rica in Lens was called to a close I had a mixture of emotions and thoughts. I feel like France did better then the scoreboard showed. Costa Rica quickly showed me that they're an underrated force. Let me outline what I feel were the good and the bad aspects of the match

The Good:

Costa Rica Gonzalez's squad did very well against one of the best teams in the world tonight.

The headline is not a typo. It indeed occurred: Marco Borriello scored the only goal as Juventus defeated Cesena at the Stadio Dino Manuzzi on Wednesday to remain three points clear at the top of Serie A. Days after their demolition of Roma in which Arturo Vidal, Andrea Pirlo and Claudio Marchisio were superb and found all found the target, they as well as their teammates – looked flat in.

Santos Reject Porto’s €8 million Bid For Ganso

Soccer Tickets Online at related • 0 views

Brazilian club Santos on Friday turned down an €8 million bid from Portuguese club FC Porto for their midfield wizard Paulo Henrique Ganso. However, what seems to be rubbing people the wrong way is club president Luis Alvaro Ribeiro's comments where he labelled Porto's bid as comical and that it should have at least contained an extra zero for Santos to consider it.

International players to return - Nasri begins his Arsenal career

Good Monday to you,

it's the day when pre-season starts in earnest as those involved in European competition and internationals over the summer are due back.

Scheduled to return today are Robin van Persie, William Gallas and Emmanuel Adebayor. I don't know for sure but I suspect that due to Spain's run all the way to the final of Euro 2008, Cesc might be given a bit more time off.

Jermain Defoe: Good at Scoring Goals, But Good Enough to Start for England?

England World Cup Blog at related • 2 views

Spurs beat Wigan 9-1 (not a typo) this weekend with England's own Jermain Defoe backing five of the goals. A hat-trick and two thirds of way to another hat-trick.

My favourite thing about those five is the range it demonstrates in Defoe's finishing: From movement in the box to close range acrobatics to sniper like accuracy from a wide angle.

Moros Monday

That's not a typo - but I'm morose as well, after Rebecca Moros scored for the Freedom against the Breakers, and all the blue team could come up with was a tie in yesterday's match. I am sure that they wanted to pull off the win against the Abby-less Freedom ... and with Maren Meinert there, no less.

The game started with the field tilted towards the LA goal as Ihemelu, Cummings, and Casey hooked up for the second fastest goal in MLS history as Casey slotted the ball home only 17 seconds into the match.
