    Terrible defending but still a good header. Simply wanted it more

    What have we done to deserve this commentator . Squeak galore and it ain't even started yet

    A perfect voice for silent film.

    May have been mentioned before, but I have not read all the thread. Confused about kit policy? England "away" v Tunisia = away kit. Morocco "away" v Portugal = home kit?

    The worrying thing for Morocco is they punched themselves out in the first game and were knackered by the second half - do that here against Ronaldo and they will get punished.

    Probably workwd out so all 32 teams wear both of their kits in the group stages, all about marketing

    Portugal are maybe the worst ‘big’ side when it comes to defending

    Take Ronaldo out of that team and they are no better than Sweden or Switzerland.

    Bloody BBC political correctness gone mad, I'm drafting my letter of complaint to the Daily Mail already.

    This woman + Keown = worse than I thought possible.

    It's the monotone stereotypical commentator voice she is putting on that is really grating on me. She is trying too hard to sound like a commentator rather than just calling the game.

    Actually it would be even worse with Phil Neville alongside her, monotone non stop.

    Apart from the goal Morocco have been the better side by along way.....they just need to start taking their chances.

    don't forget the non-stop captain obvious comments "Ronaldo is a really good player" …………… "morocco really need to score" ………… etc etc ad nauseum

    I don't watch Match of the Day. Has this commenter been used during last season? Or is this the first match she has ever commentated on?

    Don't think she has, though maybe wrong.

    Martin Keown is such a knob

    "Messi missed a penalty you wouldnt see Ronaldo miss one"

    Yes Martin Ronaldo has missed penalties before

    I'm fairly sure I've heard her before, not sure on featured games though just the ones in the last few minutes (you know the historical "Charlton section" of MOTD)
