The conditions in Ukraine-France are unbelievable. Torrential rain is falling and they pulled the players off the pitch after four minutes following a lightning strike.

The lightning strike is a bit late. Torres scored yesterday.

My favourite comment thus far :

Alexei Lalas : "They need to get out there with a fork."

My mate : "They'll never eat all that."

Watching ESPN try to fill 40 minutes of rain delay is painful... Lalas is like a gas - he'll expand to fill any available space - but by the end the questions were practically "what's it like to be outside when it's raining?"
