It takes a lot of personality, integrity and honour to admit when you're beaten and to applaud the victor without rancour. We at the Empress were happy to do that.
It takes even more honour to share the grief of those who are subsequently given a worse beating by that same victor. More honour than we had, to be frank. Come on, Argentina...at least we scored a couple...
Here's looking forward to Uruguay - Holland and Germany - Spain!
