Dull game but right result

David Baddiel (Standard Sport columnist at the game) "It was a dull game, and at times I thought we were playing a friendly. It seemed like the players were affected by the heat. It was really, really hot and felt like we were playing in the tropics.
"I think the players were pacing themselves, but doing that at some point you have to break into a sprint.
"I'm pleased to be playing Denmark, because I'd have been frightened of Senegal, they are creative and can score goals.
"We should beat Denmark, they're basically Everton. Their team is full of mediocre Premiership players."

Gary Lineker (Former England captain and BBC presenter) "It was not the best game in the world, but England got the required result and that's all that matters.
"Maybe it was better to finish second, as England struggle in the heat, and now the game against Denmark kicks off later."

Alan Hansen (Former Scotland defender and BBC pundit) "As a game the spectacle was dire, but that doesn't matter. England qualified because of a magnificent result against Argentina.
"If England play well, I fancy them to beat Denmark. Before the tournament we said England had three world-class players in Beckham, Owen and Gerrard - but now we have a fourth in Rio Ferdinand. Strength, pace and leadership - show me a better centre-half in this competition."

Martin O'Neill (Celtic manager and BBC pundit) "It's always difficult knowing that a draw will be enough. England were a bit defensive early on, but they're through.
"Argentina talked a great game, but didn't do it on the pitch. Their arrogant attitude cost them."

Ian Wright (Former England striker and TV presenter) "This is a reality check, people will realise what hard work still has to be done. It's not unfortunate that Argentina have gone out, it's very fortunate. I'm delighted about it, actually."
