Becks fell to his knees
England captain David Beckham will be hoping to feel a bit perkier when his team take on Portugal in their quarter-final clash on Saturday.
The midfielder was sick on the pitch after scoring England's winner in their second round tie against Ecuador.
"I didn't feel well before the game, but I thought I would be fine," he said. "But the sickness continued in the second half and it just came out."
Becks was substituted in the final minutes of the game on Sunday.
In the countdown to the match, there had been calls for Sven to drop him from the starting line-up.
Becks was subbed
But his 60th-minute wonder goal silenced many critics.
"I can handle my criticism and I'll prove them wrong," said Becks.
"It was a great feeling to get a goal and put us in the quarter-final."
