Think Peru will fancy themselves against France, they play great forward football3

Harsh on Peru.0

Big result for Denmark. They were crap and Peru could trouble France.2

Someone at work told me it's head-to-head first rather than goal difference in the groups if sides finish level on points. Anyone able to verify that?
Anyway, I've been on the sofa for 8 and a half hours. Think I might go for a walk round the block before the final instalment of this glorious day.3 -

I wouldn’t expect us to have loads more at our first two games. Neither sold out I don’t believe and they were paltry allocations to start with.Hastingsaddick said:Only 700 Danes there....that's shocking support as they used to travel in huge numbers....how does the ticket allocations work for there world cup games?....On the other hand 40,000 Peru there....the Leeds Utd of this world cup.
PS - 40k Peru?? Attendance was 40,500.
Eng got allocations of circa a few k for each game.0 -
Roy Keane is such a miserable bastard! constantly has a face like a slapped arse.1

Surprising number of Americans considering they didn't qualify!Chris_from_Sidcup said:
The Putin and Russian Hooligan factors have presumably affected European levels of support, I guess people from other parts of the world weren't so bothered0 -

It's ridiculous - how much must it cost to send him over there and put him up for the tournament and he provides about two words of "analysis" before the match.Manicmania said:Roy Keane is such a miserable bastard! constantly has a face like a slapped arse.
I genuinely don't think having solely former pro's providing analysis makes sense, just because you played the game doesn't mean you can explain it.0 -

Weird but always good to see the first match of a tournament played at a new stadium that England will play in later in the tournament. England v Belgium at this stadium in Kaliningrad...0

94th min iran goal has prevented me getting the outcome correct of every match so far.1

Peru to lose
Saudi to lose
Egypt to lose
Australia to lose
Spain Portugal draw
Argentina to draw against well organise side and they are pretty shit.
Felt Iran and morrocco to very average sides to draw.
Not exactly difficult.
Fancy Nigeria to nick a 1nil 2nd half.1 -
If I am going to make it as a scout I must make an effort to watch some Premiership football outside of matches between the top six next season!Ross said:
