We played / performed so much better v higher ranked Croatia.My worry is that Tuchel’s relentless focus on teamwork detracts from any opportunity for individual brilliance. It certainly seemed that way today.2

Much better from Ronaldo yesterday. Very nearly got his hat trick 3 or 4 times. At 41 his hunger to be involved is unreal. Just needs to look to make assists a bit more.0

I think every tournament if he keeps playing the Saudi leagues will take a while to get into form. He really should have gone to the U.S where football is improving at a much faster rate.ForeverAddickted said:Thank god the Ronaldo wankfest can end until the next game now!!0 -

Hoping England have learnt from this so well be better against the low block next time.
Of course, its the hope that kills...1 -
it's absolutely painful watching the BBC in this WC - Giroud has a better grasp of the English Language than Rooney!fenaddick said:Why have the beeb made the pundits wear suit jackets for this game?3 -
Games coming thick and fast now with 3 groups per night settled over the next 4 nights.3

Friday's in particular are a bit rubbish, with 8pm games, then a 3 hour gap after they finish until the 1am games, while the England group games on Saturday at 10pm are the first that evening.1 -

I wonder if the Beeb or ITV will start doing a "route to the final" table now that the group stage is coming to an end.Chris_from_Sidcup said:Games coming thick and fast now with 3 groups per night settled over the next 4 nights.
A nice graphic showing the different permutations would be much better than ex-players mumbling & bumbling post match.1 -

As it stands Scotland will face Mexico and we have Cape Verde and we would meet who wins out of that Mexico Scotland game.

I do quite like our side of the draw - especially until the semis.Callumcafc said:

Canada v Algeria (17.3%)
Portugal v Ghana (27.7%)Brazil - I think we are very capable of beating.Norway - Haaland worries me, but their back line is weak.
Mexico - Azteca etc. aside, they haven’t looked very convincing and have no superstars.DR Congo - Would cause us issues in a Ghana style block.Spain are the team with the best draw currently, but the USA matchup could be tasty.1 -
Having 8 3rd placed teams going through makes it really unfair on the teams playing their final games earlier on.
A team playing on Saturday will know exactly what result they need to through as one of the top 8 3rd placed teams, whereas Scotland tonight have no idea whether they need a draw, or whether a 1-0 defeat would be good enough.0 -

Switzerland Canada is like two faintly competent Div 1 teams.2

That's polite.1

The Swiss geezer should have gone after that free-kick.1

Totally. The Celine Dion derby otherwise4

Very early second half goal for Switzerland. Hopefully the game will liven up now.1
