Keep up the good work! 2-2 would have changed the game, but in truth we were poor - maybe that "golden generation" that came through when Eriksson took over needs to step aside.

Shame about England. It's amazing how the linesmen can call an offside with millimeters in it and completely miss a goal that was 2 kilometers in. Spoilt the game and inevitable cost you guys a chance at the gold. As always Howard, thanks for your comments.

The "aerobic base" predominant role is in recovery from these, therefore we should train our soccer players intensely (anaerobically) with suitable rest periods that allow them to maintain a high rate of play.
