Jul 01, 2006 10:49

Peter hadn't been able to sleep before the game though World Cup nerves weren't what were keeping him awake.  In any case, he'd put the time to good use by getting doughnuts, pasties, and orange juice and putting them out on the Common Room table.

England vs. Portugal.  And it was even more important that England win since Germany had beaten ( Read more... )

Two days in a row of this? Why, no, Conner's not crying.

Except he kind of is.

Peter's shaking his head in absolute disbelief. "That was...unbelievable. After all that time playing with 10 men and holding Portugal off."

Conner groaned. "I can't believe this. They just didn't have enough left in the tank for the end there . . ."

"And that shot by Carragher that the ref made him take back," Peter said. "That one was perfect."

"England's just jinxed when it comes down to penalty kicks," Conner said mournfully. "That's five of the last six major tournament shootouts they've lost."

Peter shook his head. "Just... I hate penalty kicks. They should keep playing until someone scores. Penalty kicks are too fake."

Conner scratched his ear. "Well, on one hand," he mused, "after playing that many minutes? I get why it comes down to that. Everybody's pretty much wiped. But when you're watching the game, it's just not that exciting. And yeah, pretty fake."

He shook a finger at the TV. "That's it. No more shootouts for the rest of the tournament. I demand this."

Peter cracked a grin. "If that works, I'm going to ask why you didn't do it sooner to get England and Argentina to win."

"Of for--" And there goes that Spanish cursing again. "Up Brazil, then."

"Up Brazil for real," Conner agreed. "Aw, man. This sucks."
