    Qatar manager looks disturbingly like the twat Danny murphy
    Only not quite as miserable
  • You watch... I bet Qatar are losing this game, so that when they beat the Netherlands 5-0, there cant be accusations of match fixing
  • What was the deal with the Qatar bloke and his head piece in the stands?

    That would have been a worldie
  • Jeeez... that could have been goal of the tournament right there - Great effort from the Qatari
  • Much better second half from Qatar 
  • Much better second half from Qatar 
    Primarily because Ecuador dont appear to be giving a shit

    Saving themselves for the next matches.

    Or they have the same fitness training as Charlton
  • Even Dion Dublin on commentary, sounds bored with having to come out with the mandatory positive crap

    1 match down.
    63 to go.

  • Great advertisement to prove how shite the World Cup will be in four years time, when we increase to 48-nations.

    That offside is still baffling me. When the graphic of the knee being offside is shown there is another Qatar player playing him onside? They just delete him from the graphic

    It's not even just that, the graphic is from when the guy is playing the ball, not from when the ball is being played to him

    Can't remember ever the host nation's fans leaving early in a WC. Ecuador completely shut the game down second half but still, why bother going?

    Gibraltar v Malta 2026 ?

    We will be stuck between a rock and a hard place.

    Proper snooze fest second half. Was only ever going to be that way once Ecuador got two goals in front.

    The offside law is actually that any part of the body of the attacking player can’t be ahead of the second to last defensive player. We just don’t think of it in those terms because the goalkeeper counts as one of those defensive players and will almost always be the last man back. In this situation the ‘keeper was having a nightmare and came charging off his line meaning he was the second to last player and the Qatar defender behind him - the one you’re seeing deleted from the graphic - was the last man back. 

  • The real deal starts tomorrow 
    England vs Iran will be interesting, with them our own nation - USA vs Wales | Dutch vs Senegal could be really decent match ups
  • The real deal starts tomorrow 
    It's coming home

    Fair enough, don't usually pay attention to where the goalie is on an offside!

    Is Lineker pissed?
