    JP having a good commentary game with his impeccable pronunciations and I'm partial to a 'discombobulated'.

    Yet again a different interpretation of what constitutes a hand ball by a forward in the built up to a 'goal'.

    South Korea getting punished for not making that early dominance pay.

    Eight goals already today - been waiting a while for this!

    They’ve just said that if the player who handled the ball had scored, it would have been disallowed.
    Is it just me, or does this make absolutely no sense? 
    Is it handball or not? Surely that’s the only consideration?

    I’ve no axe to grind here as I have no preference for whether that gets disallowed or not, but this seems like a strange rule to me.
  • Ghana's Inaki Williams hasn't missed a game for Bilbao for over 6 years, incredible record for an outfield player in the modern day game.

    Guaranteed if he rocked up at Charlton, he'd be injured within a month.

    There were 12 goals on day 2! (And only three games that day!)

    That's happened in the PL as well, it's a dubious rule, but then the handball rules are a shambles now!
  • The World Cup today is fucking nuts
  • Great header. Another completely unexpected comeback

    Serbia/Cameroon was a terrific game .. pity that it looks as though neither will qualify from their group .. now Korea/Ghana providing similar excitement

    2 goal leads aren't what they used to be.

    Magic Monday.
  • The 2 "dull on paper" Monday games have been crackers. You can guarantee that the Brazil and Portugal games will be snoozefests now!
  • An assist for Williams there  :D

    I think Ghana will go 2-0 goals up but then Korea will score 2 goals quickly via Cho. Kudus will put Ghana 3-2 up again around 68 mins... Just a prediction.......
    ☝️Good call that man

    Cleared off the line to stop the 12th goal in 2 matches.

    Monday is The best day for goals.

    23 of them scored on Mondays.
    😎

    (I know, more Monday games so far, but still…)

    Serbia defend a 3-2 lead near the half way whereas Ghana defend with 11 behind the ball.
  • I've never seen a side so dominate added time so much, 10 minutes of one sided pressure 
  • Ben Garner gets another red card  :D

    Taylor should've played another 30 seconds at the end, no wonder the coach was upset. Ghana player down getting treated for well over a minute.

    just seen the Ghana 3rd goal, surely it was offside .. the final pass was forwards to a Ghanaian who's well in front of the last Serb ??

    Reckon the pace will slow right down for this Brazil game, maybe a 1-0 or 2-0 like against Serbia.

    Portugal Uruguay feels like it could be a slog too with niggly fouls and theatrics abound.
