That's not a pen imo. Korean is about to clear it, unaware of Richarlison who runs into his foot and falls over.

Souness has come as Trigger.

Modric reckons Marie Kondo is an "OCD fraud with no actual substance" apparently, the whole dressing room is furious in solidarity.

Definitely an actual psychopath, this bloke.

Same, I said we'd get knocked out in the quarters by France. I'm still terrified of them but now not so sure. A toss-up is probably right. Poland gave them serious problems today and only came unstuck when Mbappe was given space. I actually think it all hinges on how England approach the game - if we give them too much respect and play within ourselves like we did most of the game against Italy in the Euros final then we'll lose. Have a go at them and have enough players on form on the day and we can win.

First 15 fine, last 10 great, the bit in the middle terrible and we were lucky to get away with it. Bellingham has been brilliant, Foden canny. A few poor performances elsewhere. Hopefully we can chill a bit 2nd half here.

2 fairly astute observations tbh.

Maguire's having a shocker here.

absolutely fucking not

Had a thought about the next World Cup with it being 48 teams. Have 12 groups of 4. Top 2 go through. Leaves you with 24 teams. Top performing 8 group winners get a bye to last 16. Remaining 16 play each other in a last 16 qualifier. Winners play the 8 who got a bye. Then it works like any last 16. I don't think teams getting a bye is ideal but it gives teams an incentive to go all out for wins and goals in the group stages. And it keeps the 4 team group format where 2 go through. Surely better than what has been suggested.

FFS. Not their day, is it.

Undeserved that like.

Great pressure US, howay

Sorry Mike.

Great start by the US.

Bloody hell Pulisic, you have to score that.

Very sad news. Absolute legend of the game.

Hopefully someone translates it to him and tells him Grealish has doubled down.

You want prontonise you optimistic imbecile?

1st half of Swiss-Serbs was the best 45 minutes of the tournament so far imo. Shame the 2nd half started with a Switzerland goal and they were so robust after that. Great goal though, and impressive from the Swiss seeing it out so comfortably. Serbia obviously a flawed side but were involved in 3 of the most entertaining games so far. Mad fuckers.

Netherlands 2-1 USA Argentina 2-0 Australia France 3-0 Poland (double) England 2-0 Senegal Japan 0-0 Croatia Brazil 2-0 South Korea Morocco 1-1 Spain Portugal 2-1 Switzerland

I had the South Korea game on, did Uruguay actually go for a 3rd goal in the 2nd half? Saw they took off Suarez, Darwin and the scorer of the brace. Absolute dafties if they settled for 2, knowing what could happen.

First World Cup game to be 2-2 at HT since England-Argentina in 1998.

so good so far

Bloody hell!
