Spain was undefeated under Lopetegui (P20, W14, D6).
Yeah. Crazy that RM did this prior to the WC. They simply don't care about the welfare of the national team. Surely they could have waited until after the cup? If people at home feel Spain underachieve in the tourney it will not endear RM to anyone
They don't really give a shit anyway. That nation is far from united. They'll take national team success but will prefer their club team every day of the week.

Off Twitter - "Russia could have won that with one hand tied behind their back. Which coincidentally is the punishment for wanking in Saudi Arabia"

Every World Cup has to have its whipping boys. Apparently it's Saudi Arabia this time.

Uruguay 1
Egypt 0Uruguay stodgy as fuck. Egypt much snazzier going forward but repeatedly shat the bed when looking for goal. Salah rode the pine. Disappointed it took til 95th minute for Suarez to try to eat someone. Fuck Urugauy
Spain 3
Portugal 3Spain looked murderously good, if David Silva stays healthy I pick they win the whole thing. Portugal were shit. Bailed out by the plasticene-faced big screen checker. The claymation marionette had a penalty, then fluked one in off a fluffed De Gea save and then a deadly free kick for his hat trick. Fuck Spain. Pantomime villains at either end in flailing cross-eyed lunatic Costa and judo arm-barring fucktard Ramos
Great game. Got what I ordered off the menu too, Nacho with ease.

ps how shit was Suarez, fluffed everything we got his barge-arse in the vicinity of, looked 10 kgs heavier than Lpool days, must be eating well in Spain, [insert "lots of practice biting, fuckit, anything will do" gag]
No cutting edge in front of goal?

France averaging a shot on target every 2 mins. Matter of time
-
God, what a boring half that was.

yeah, fairly toothless, just doesnt have his old appetite for goal
He's a proven scorer though; once he gets a taste he'll want to dine out on goals

Straya 1
Frogs 2haha, Straya went alright, gave the cossetted frog superstars a fuck of a fright. That VAR PK scenario was damn sketchy. Going the way of rugby, the more you look the more youre gonna find shit to have a cry about. In real time it looked like the frog left his back foot in then sort of belatedly remembered to go down from sniper fire, as they all do. I wouldve booked the fluffybunny for simulation.
Dunno who the players were but good things were happening for Aus down the right. Should've gone to that well more often
haha, Giroud subs on with his head already bandaged and his hair PERFECTLY already manicured around the bandage. Must be going for the rugged Parisien look on the catwalk look this spring.
Was thinking wft is the big deal about Pogba, decorates the game with a couple of ineffectual fancy dan touches then fucken vanishes for 20 minutes. Then oops hello, scythes thru to win them the match
Mbappe too, big deal. Worlds most expensive player my arse. More like Mfappe.
Giroud was taking fashion cues from this guy

Arg 1
Vikings 1There are 350,000 Icelanders TOTAL.
GTFO.
Incredible. I googled their population after the equaliser, and given their Euro champs ride, I still can't get my head around it!
