    Nah I much prefer tippy tappy, passing out from the back 70% possession backwards, sideways and one shot on target, it’s the way to go apparently 😏

    Honestly think the Belgium v Canada game was the worst yet.
    Not sure if it’s just because I expected so much better.
    It was League One at its worst.
    I can see Canada doing another 0 points & 0 goals again.
    And how on earth did Kevin get player of the match? 😳
    I thought it was a great game, can't believe Canada didn't score
  • Is Suarez's neck tattoo for how many times he's been banned for biting?

    Says the person making a discriminatory remark about people from Liverpool born out of wedlock.

    Because they couldn’t hit a barn door with a banjo!
    Absolutely clueless.
    The only way they score is an OG or it comes off an arse 😳😂😂

  • Quite good timing to have a German and an Argentine in the studio!

    Lots ot OLD players still playing.

    No way the two ex yid Belgian defenders are at the top of their game now and Luis Suarez looks proper shit now too.

    I was thinking the same. Looks like Uruguay are about to take Suarez off ... for Cavani.

    God... Uruguay vs South Korea feels the worst game so far

    Just the one 0-0 draw in 2018... Four of them in 14-games already this Tournament

    England are just gonna have to batter United States to keep up the goal to game ratio

    That group will be cagey in every game. 4 pretty well matched teams, so no surprise if there are plenty of low scoring draws there.

    Fourth nil nil in 14 games.

    The most at this stage of a tournament since 1982.

    Record shared between 1982, 2006, 2010, 2014 which each had seven.

    So only four more needed for the record and still 50 games to play.

    Brazil 2014 had five group games end 0-0. Plus two knockout matches that went to penalties without a goal being scored. There was however another three games that had no goal in 90 minutes and was decided in extra time.

    So seven officially but 10 in 90 minutes.

    South Africa 2010 had six goalless group games. One nil nil knockout game decided on penalties and one game finished in extra time after a goalless 90 minutes.

    Seven officially but 8 in 90 minutes.

    Germany 2006 had five nil nil games in the group stage plus two goalless knockouts decided on penalties. One other game ended in extra time after no goals in 90 minutes. Seven officially but 8 in 90 minutes.

    Spain 1982 had seven group stage games end goalless and none in the shorter knockout format.



    As percentages of games played per tournament:

    - South Africa 2010 & Germany 2006: 10.94% (or 12.50% in 90 minutes)

    - Brazil 2014: 10.94% (or 15.63% in 90 minutes)

    - Spain 1982: 13.46%
