Belgium looking like they are about to violently fuck Tunisia. 2-0 after 17
And then Tunisia score! The fuck?
Dylan Bronn? Not very Arab sounding.
The first time i heard his name i assumed he was a Belgian defender!!
I see he's actually French born and bred. Mother is Tunisian.
Now he's off.
That Hazard is good isn't he?
Yea. Really good
-
Germany looking good for a repeat of the Führer Bunker 1945 but Kroos pulled off a Manstein. Still alive but maybe just staving off the inevitable.
Sweden can go fark off though. Park the bus for the entire half and that's what you get. Sug ballene mine svenske jaevler.
-
Germans on the brink of likely elimination pull out a 95th minute lifesaver by way of a superb free-kick by Kroos. Only place he could put it and it was perfect. Tough for the Swedes who had got so close but Germans missed a fair few chances even down to 10 men.
Group still open, Sweden need a win against Mexico, Germans have to beat S Korea and it could end with 3 teams on 6 points.

Panama, Panama-ha
Are playing England, and are already down 0-2.
I guess they are unhappy with the blatant penalty they just gave away, because they accepted it with the good grace of my youngest son when i ask him to tidy his room

Most unusual behaviour for association football.
-
England's third is sexy
Panama are down by 2 and still have every one of their players in their own half. See if that changes now they are down by 3
-
And it's 4. England look good.
-
Hahaha Panama make 3 separate rugby tackles on the same corner and still look shocked to give up the penalty.
5-0 at half time

weirdly, Eng have hardly even had to work for it yet up by 5.
lol@ the unnecessarily violent Panamanians. They are disgracing their nation and disgracing their canal. Seemed to be under instruction from the start to just rugby tackle any fucker in the box at corners and dare the ref to call PK. So he did.
Not sure why the vicious drongos are all screaming their nuts off at the ref/Eng players when they get pinged for being agricultural thugs
Silly thing is, during the first quarter of the match they were holding their own, and made chances. Needless thuggery
-
England look, well, really good. Yes, Panama are shit, but because England are stretching them. Width in attack, runners behind, set piece on point. This is not tournament England we are used to.
-
Kane scores with his ass for his 3rd. 6-0
England to first in the group.
-
Panama score. Ripper finish to a set piece.

They seem very loose at the moment, innocence of youth? Sterling was shit as usual

Given current form, i would probably take the Germany/Brazil side of the draw.
-
@rocky-rockbottom thing is, a lot of people would rather their club won the Champions League than their nation won the World Cup. Messi will go down as a all-time great in Spain.
Plenty of players of their generation never won a WC -- Eusebio, Puskas, Cruyff. No-one bags them.
Messi has to deal with Argentina having won one. But Kiwis can love Lomu, and how many cups did he win?
