Joint top scorers should have a penalty shoot out to decide who gets it, although Kane would probably lose anyway as pens don’t count or somtheing....

Cheers gdm :thup:

Didn't know that about the penalty thing.

 

Tbh neither did I, I knew about the assists being added on but didn’t know about the penalties until I looked it up

98's always the one that sticks out for me. Reckon this has, against all expectations, comfortably been the best one since then at least. Just hope we don't get France grinding out a 1-0 win again to round it off.

This is miles better than '98 like, there's absolutely no contest whatsoever in terms of football quality. Nostalgia probably comes into it though.

It was horrible due to the vuvuzelas, but I enjoyed certain matches more in '10 than '14 where the 7-1 is basically the only thing I remember - and it's only four years ago, hence why I put that last. They were both horrible though.

'14 was absolutely fucking brilliant man ye mad cunt.

 

The groups were great in 2014 but the knockouts, other than 7-1, were dull as fuck. This has been the best World Cup in my lifetime, no question.

The groups played a huge part though, certainly better than '10, and '02 overall at the very least.

 

Agree that this has been the best I've seen. I've absolutely loved it.

Bump for this slightly premature review of the tournament as I thought it was funny even at the time. :lol:

 

i think it's been an average WC at absolute best with a few games that have elevated it in people's minds to being better than it is

 

por-esp

ger-mex

peru games have been enjoyable and a few others dotted about

arg - cro good for the croatian performance and unbelievable shitness of the argies
