Inspired choice of Abbey Road Medley @CCfunkandsoul to close today's show! In floods of tears, gets me every time, usually at start of Golden Slumbers, if not before. Four geniuses at work!

This is a horrible dilemma! Would much rather face Switzerland in semi, but the football purist in me wants to see 馃悙 Messi in 2 more World Cup games (losing to Eng in semi, then 3rd/4th playoff obviously!) #ARGSUI

Round of applause too for the @BBCMOTD team - heroic filling by Kelly, Wayne, Joe and Micah with the hour delay, even Sky don't do 2 hour build-ups!

Take a bow Cabo Verde - you've just taken the World Champions to the brink of elimination! Outstanding performance you Blue Sharks! Game of the tournament! #ARGCPV #ARGCBV

Memo to @ITV - tactics board better than chalkboard, but please give brilliant @emmahayes1 a proper touchscreen for her outstanding tactical insights during hydration breaks! Oh, and scrap the crap MFI kitchenette as well! Emma is world class! cc @markpougatch (also top class!)

Congratulations to @BBCMOTD team for building a great highlights show from a crazy 18-game night within an hour of final whistles! Good analysis, great sequencing. And Mark Chapman is the best football presenter around, up there with prime Des Lynam!

Die Hard 2 is that rare thing, sequel as good as the original! Godfather 1 and 2 obviously, two best of all time, but Bruce Willis in his prime made 2 of the best 80s/90s action movies!

A few thoughts on Eng cricket team @Athersmike @nassercricket @sgfmann Crawley - cockroach, survivor, done enough for another year. Duckett - fallen of cliff this year, more white ball than red, needs replacing. Pope - thank you and goodbye! Over!

Smith - not best keeper (see Foakes) but might have bought another year in Adelaide Jacks - white baller, decent bat, not a Test bowler Carse - OK 1st change, useful stopgap Archer - our only world class bowler atm! Tongue - see Carse, useful 4th, no more

And the squad Atkinson - great start, could be new Jimmy, but fear he'll be new Finny Bethell - huge potential, but fear he's a white ball. Worth a try for Pope 4th/5th test Bashir - project gone wrong! Not even County!

Joe Root = GOAT 馃悙 @root66 Plenty of Aussies will be on humble pie for dinner tonight! #Ashes

One of the all-time greatest Test series, up there alongside 2005 and 1981 Ashes. Gutted for England today, but 2-2 fair result overall. Impressed by India, especially Siraj, total warrior! Both sides a great advertisement for Test cricket #ENGvsIND

Sir Jimmy Anderson @jimmy9 = GOAT 馃悙 Still delivering match-winning performances at nearly 43, in a format he'd not played for well over a decade! #roses #Lancashire
