This is really good, looks like you'll be advancing just by going off of your record. England is a very tough team to beat so atleast you hung in there and almost won.

Card Summary
47' - - Zaboronkovs

Latvia played extremely well in their friendly match against Drogba and the Ivory Coast team. A draw is a promising result going into the final match in the first round of games in group play.

Drogba was a one man wrecking crew, scoring two goals and having 3 more shots where the Latvian keeper only managed to get a hand on the ball to prevent it from going in the net. Latvia had their fair share of chances as well, but couldn't manage to break the tie.

Latvian supporters are shaking their heads after the team's performance against Slovenia. Despite taking a lead into the half, they couldn't keep the ball away from the Slovenian players.

Like in previous games, Latvia had plenty of shooting opportunities, they just wouldn't get in the goal. Slovenia on the other hand had far less chances, but made the most of them and came away with a victory because of it.
