The Castrol Index uses the latest FIFA tracking technology to capture data on each player which is analysed. Every pass, tackle and move on the field is measured and assessed to see if it has a positive or negative impact on a team's ability to score or concede a goal. The team of analysts crunch all the data to award each player a Castrol Index score out of 10 - the stronger the player's performance, the higher their score.

Castrol are just the sponsors of the analysis and so they need some stupid advertising.

An England fan had part of his ear bitten off by one of his fellow supporters after the team's World Cup defeat by Uruguay last week www.teamtalk.com/worldcup/news/9365186/W...-off-supporter-s-ear

Holland living dangerously thus far.

Best call by far in the WC so far, giving the players a water break:)-D 1994 in the US was a joke. Just watching from the stands the sweat was running off and yet the players were not allowed to have a break

There should be a cooling break on the forum when things get heated

Conditions favour mexico and the dutch are playing a patient game because of the heat, i expect them to be more attack minded in the 2nd half.

Poor Dutch - too hot for the boys. Surely the second have will be better.

You were saying?

The Dutch should have been far more positive in the first half when fresh. Now to late.
