2 of the 3 teams in our WC qualifying group that made it through had good wins.

Have noticed these little tables come up on the screen during games for things like ‘Total Receptions’ and ‘Defensive Line Breaks’. Someone in graphics must be taking the piss.....hopefully

Richarlson's goal was great last night but Tim Cahill's goal is my GOAT.

Love how the refs are letting things go but yeah he nearly cut him in half. Frantic game and what a finish. Loved it. Iran v yanks for a place in knockouts would be interesting

Re: World Cup 2022 Forum
I can understand this (not initially giving a straight red) as Referee was thinking stopping a promising attack (yellow card) or denying an obvious goal-scoring opportunity (red card). Initially the Referee would not have appreciated the high contact by the 'keeper on the attacker due to a poor angle. In the end up the officials got it right through VAR and the keeper was dismissed for serious foul play.
Have to agree that it was an entertaining game and got to say that Iran thoroughly deserved the win- they were more direct in attacking their opponent and it would have been an injustice had they failed to win. In my opinion Bale and Ramsey were poor and at this level you can't afford to carry too many passengers.

Re: World Cup 2022 Forum
Was hoping it stayed a draw. That could have meant we win a few hours and wednesday's game was completely irrelevant.
Now we may have to keep an eye on GD.

Re: World Cup 2022 Forum
Southgate showing his true colours, only picked Maddison because of public pressure but has zero intention of actually using him, didn't make the subs bench in the first two games.
