Wow, just wow!

OMG, OMG!!

We couldn't be happier if we'd won the match, honestly! It's a party down here! We weren't at the World Cup for much more than experience and a good time so this result is huge! Hanging on for a draw with ten men even if Sweden weren't at their best is amazing. We were so elated while the Swedes were gutted but we have no expectations on us.

It is! I fully expect England to beat us but if we could hold or beat Paraguay it would be perfect!

My family and I were planning out how the rest of the group should go (after I randomly drew them (http://boumsong.livejournal.com/56133.html) in a WC game and yay for CONCACAF), and we decided that you guys should draw with England and then beat Paraguay. No way are we demanding too much here. But in reality, it's still just all so cool.
