  • Free kick should have gone to Japan

    Agree...commentator called that straight away.....decent game, good support there for Colombia.
    All the South american countries seem to have great support at this world cup

    Its the weakest Group I think yet all four are probably of similar standard... Poland have got away with being seeded and dont think they're that strong, same with Senegal

    Japan for me have always been the strongest Asian team, whilst Colombia should be doing better here

    Brazil not happy with the lack of use of VAR either. The FA need to get behind this with them.

    think poland will take a few, did price up the panama game the weekend can get hotel and return trip for £1100 if you really wanted to do a group game although would be visa issues im sure.

    Did Evra really just say he chose to play for France instead of Senegal because he thought it would be more encouraging for the Senegalese kids of the future? Yeah right mate.

    Yes expensive going to a game out there...must be costing all those South Americans a small fortune though....and how does the allocations work out, Colombia must have had well over 50% of the crowd.

    I heard that if you have a match ticket, you don't need a visa?

    need to have a fan id which i think had to have been obtained by start of wc, so if we did get further in tournament i don't know how many could jump on.

    from the england fans forum it doesnt look great fun over there, cant really drink anywhere on matchday, obvs had to look out for locals. the official allocations are about 17% i know englands for belgium is the only one sold out, but you can often buy the tickets cheaper on fifa portal.

    Why is Ally McCoist co-commentating on the Poland v Senegal game when Scotland have no interest in tournament football?

    Could question why Ryan Giggs is a pundit on that reason

    Although is probably to keep him away from the bored wives!!
