Hope sprang!

England Hope sprang, and so long as there were no other players on the field, everything went wellDutch Soccer As soon as the opponents turned up, however, it sprung did this hope - and will rest eternal! Best thing to do in UK and Holland is to let the Soccer Girl have a go - they couldn't do worse!
