    How funny if they get done 3 or 4 nil now. Belgium always struck me as a team of quality but lacking in motivation. This should have them right up for it.
    They haven't the personality to ever get right up for anything

    So after showing (if we didn't need to be shown again) how corrupt FIFA is and how Trump and the US in general love meddling in anything they don't agree with or understand it would be great if Poch doesn't even play him.

    Maybe, just maybe, we shouldn't take in the commentary angle and realise the French are going for an Olivier award for [bad] acting.
    Morocco will beat them with a good referee.
    Or maybe, just maybe, we can use our eyes and see the Paraguayans were dirty c***s 
    Indeed, and also the French were play acting c@~ts.

    Tap on shin pad? Roll over 3 times screaming. So many examples the 'pundits' ignore for the, 'I predicted the French to win the World Cup' kudos

    You seem to be totally out of kilter and have you not noticed how our English players do exactly the same when trying to win a foul, including Harry Kane !
    Your hatred of the French is affecting your views.
    It's a game of opinions and bias entrenched views which can affect all of us.
    Argentina 😤
    Different views I guess.
    Did you really not see the French play acting?
    Did you not see Kane dive against Congo?
    Complete whataboutery. 
    France game.
    Lol ok

    Have a feeling that this is going to be a very open game. 

    Elite attackers. Defensive frailties for both sides.

    Meanwhile ...



    Norway have a goal disallowed for offside in the 3rd minute.

    Norway look ok. The main commentator has said that I thought it was too easy to go through the Brazilian defence.. basically saying they had to be offside to get a goal against the mighty Brazil.

    VAR should be giving that as a penalty ... and the Brazil player should get carded for manhandling the ref.

    We were discussing France vs Paraguay.
    All the pundits said Paraguay were dirty and I agree - disgraceful.
    But I added that France really made a meal of it with continued play acting.
    You seem to have taken some offence at this and couldn't answer a simple question - did you see it?
    Instead of answering, you then reply by claiming Kane dived once, a completely different single incident in a completely different game, and so it must be fine for the continuous French over reactions. OK - strange whataboutery but if that's a point you think is relevant, that's fine.

    Best leave it there.

    That’s Norway’s best CB wiping out a player going away from goal. 

    Ominous for them

    Stutter pen. Miss. Quelle surprise.

    Stutter run ups for penalties should result in an automatic red card for sheer stupidity.

    Cracking move. Could be a blinding game.

    With Haarland and Wolff playing and Berg floating about in close proximity, Norway were aways going to face a Titanic struggle, although that missed penalty hasn't holed them below the waterline yet.

    The miss percentage with stutter penalties in this World Cup must be horrendous 
  • Laddick01

    For players that have mastered the art, the stutter penalty is effective. Toney/Jorginho etc.

    For every other player that isn’t regularly taking them it feels really risky. 

    If we end up with Pens tonight I hope England just blast them. I’d have no complaints.

    Goalies at this level at least have definitely learnt to wait before committing themselves when you know a stutter run up is coming. 
  • LargeAddick

    Personally don’t think stutter run ups should be allowed, should be a continuous run without any stopping.

    Bit disappointed these 2 have put on a good 20 minutes. I should be going to bed to get a few hours kip but feel like I don't want to miss this.

    Is there no co-commentator on ITV? Or have I got some weird alternate audio on

    Oh right, thanks. I think somehow I have the blind commentary on. He's describing absolutely everything. But actually I think it's better than listening to those two.
