    Not saying they're pushovers and they'd obviously give us a very good game but watching Argentina struggle in back to back games against Cape Verde and Egypt has definitely given that team negative aura, as the kids like to say.

    Arguably game of the tournament there with the comeback from 2 down and some quality along the way especially from Egypt. But that last 10 minutes of normal time I thought there's a side to match France. They were awesome in that spell, hate them or loathe them.

    Well at least Infantino's ugly mug has shown up already so the World can shout at the telly about him.

    Yeah, something stinks. After the Balogun red card debacle and then the disallowed 2nd goal for Egypt. That was enough for me. I turned it off. And not surprised Egypt lost it how they did.

    Here is the replay, odd they still have not released in Hd. Wonder why?

    If those get given as penalties Lloyd Jones is giving away upwards of 5 penalties a match

    Not buying into this conspiracy thing. Egypt only have themselves to blame. 
    Not at all worried about Argentina tho, have looked poor throughout, in fact would be surprised if they beat Columbia/Switzerland

    Not that big a leap to suspect that an organisation who publicly changed the rules to suit one team this week without giving a shit about the integrity of their own competition might also be doing the same on the sly, I would suggest.

    Don’t think Federation In Favour Argentina will be too worried …. Neither of these two should cause them any issues

    Apparently the combined xG for this game so far is a whopping 0.26.
