Yeah, but Heskey screws up in almost every match he plays, for England or Liverpool (and soon for Birmingham as well.) There is a reason he is nicknamed 'The Donkey' - and it's not for his kick.
About Becks, people miss penalties all the time - I don't think u can blame him. I prefer to place the blame on Rooney (although he played magnificantly) for not passing to Vassel for the open goal. He instead took two extra touches and won the penalty, ok that was still good, but Vassel would have had an empty net. And what about the ref? Silvestre was the last man back, and fouled Rooney - that's a straight red! But really England are to blame. Around the 85min they thought they'd won it, and stopped playing - and of course Zidane is amazing, so he just stepped up and placed both the free-kick and penalty into the corner of the net - almost inch perfect. But English MKO fans don't worry, they'll beat Switzerland and Croatia and meet Spain or Greece in the quarter finals...
