This would be over if Morocco could finish worth a damn.

This may be the game I've been most invested in all tournament. I so, so want Morocco to win.

Yes Morocco! They've been so impressive, hopefully they can keep this level up.

I've only just found out that Dumfries snapped after they did that and went charging after them, earning him a second yellow card and subsequent red after the game.

Imagine, if you can, how good this team would be if they played for better clubs.

Someone booked for... I don't know, breathing? Argentina win!

Stupid run up results in bad penalty shocker.

The noise difference is insane, as is that image of just a tiny sliver of orange in a sea of white and blue.

These aren't bad penalties, other than perhaps the height, Martinez is just unstoppable.

Where is Tim Krul? Poor planning from the Dutch.

More bookings. All the previous yellow cards have done so much to calm the game down.

It's not helped by him laughing and joking in Spanish with the Argentine players. Oh my word. What a set piece.

What a stupid thing to do. But it got us the image of Edgar Davids trying to calm down a fight, which is priceless.

This ref loves a yellow card, players, coaches, backroom staff. He's going to start booking fans soon.

Stop it Messi, that's simply not fair.

Well to be fair, for the next four years that's what they'll be doing... Defensive football and winning on penalties is a strategy I can get behind.

Portugal deny Ronaldo threatened to quit the World Cup squad after being dropped. No smoke without fire etc, and his recent behaviour would certainly make this plausible, but I also think that makes it an easy thing for a media outlet to make up.

I may have mentioned once or twice that I despise them in their current form, both in terms of how they bump qualifying on to a Friday when nobody can watch it, and that they take a potentially mixed up grid and turn it into a grid of the fastest cars in order. Take away any grid ramifications from it and move qualifying to Saturday's first session and I'd have no complaints.

I don't celebrate Christmas at all, but I watch The Muppets' Christmas Carol every year without fail.

Rafael Leao has to play more, he's going to be a superstar.

But he'll get a winners medal for contributing so little, while his cronies like Morgan scream about how great he is. If they could stop giving him more airtime than the goalscorer after every goal that would be a start.

I'm resigning myself to a belief that Portugal are going to win the whole thing, because that's the last thing Ronaldo deserves. Oh, and that twat as well.

New training tip - L41-43 Pelippers in the North Paldean Sea have four moves, Mist (does no damage), Fling (no held item, so does no damage), Spit Up and Swallow (but not Stockpile, so neither work).

OK, taking off your goalkeeper may be nice for themselves, but it feels like it's disrespectful. That's fine, but they had a meaningless group game to do stuff like this, this is a knockout round fixture.

I'm glad South Korea got a goal, and hey, they're winning the second half.
