Come on let's be honest....

1. We where in the hardest group.
2. The weather did not suite us.
3. We lost to 2 teams above us in the FIFA rankings.
4. We did draw with the team that beat the other two and finish top.

Did anyone really expect us to qualify?

TBH I thought we might get 5 points and go out on GD.

Wasn't expecting a great deal.

1. So, you have to play well to win, we didn't
2. Did we have different weather to anyone else, in fact the weather was the least of our problems
3. So, rankings mean little, both Holland and France have demolished teams 10+ places ahead of them, and Cost Rica have beaten teams 18+ positions ahead
4. Draw against a team ranked 18 places below us, expected to be the whiping boys, and basically only needed a draw.

We were weak defensively against two sides who didn't cover themselves in glory in their other two games, let's just admit it went a bit crap.
