FIFA World Cup 2018

[FLiam]

GOOOOOAAAAAAAAL.

Awful, awful header.

[Baddar]

Fantastic header.

Glad one of these won the game. Would be even less of an incentive for Portugal or Spain to go out and win tonight it this finished level.

p much.

I hope this doesn't turn into Euro 2016 where every game is 0-0 until someone pops in a winner in the 90th minute. Dull AF so far today.

[Adam]

Terrible game. So many fouls, so little quality.

The goal is a joke as well, I'd not speak to that bloke again if I was in the Morocco squad.

[Malenko]

This world cup is proof we need 48 teams. Not enough bad teams in it. We need a break from all this excitment.

[Arjen Robben]

Does my head in how you can always tell how much the hosts and presenters are dying to go "BUT LET'S TALK ABOUT ENGLAND..." 

Literally nothing to report on but let's talk about them anyway for some reason, here's an interview nobody was interested in with Gary Cahill.

[Baddar]

BBC start their Portugal v Spain coverage in 15mins. You can bet most of that build up will be dedicated to England.

I think they've done a fairly long interview with Fabregas to be fair.

He doesn't play for England. Or Spain, actually.

I loved World Cup 2014 so much as after England got eliminated (day 9 I think?) the pundits were forced to actually talk about the other teams playing. I'm sick to death of Gabriel Clarke noncing around the England training camp as though he's the fucking Royal Correspondent.

[Arjen Robben]

Good tie.

Why are people seemingly surprised about this at every tournament? 

[Baddar]

I'm not. Just a follow on from the post before where somebody said ITV were banging on about them.

[Arjen Robben]

Yeah, it's annoyance, not surprise. 

Glad we got an update on how not injured Marcus Rashford is though, and what games Pickford is playing.

And lucky us we have more to look forward to at half time! Presumably finding out what they had for breakfast.

#passion #togetherness #harmony 

[Adam]

Loads of waffle about England from Gabby Logan and there'll be more at half time apparently. They can't help themselves.

[9 to 5]

I assume most if not all other nations at the World Cup TV coverage is the same tbh.

[Gazz]

Gabriel Clarke standing in front of host nation landmarks, squinting into the camera and saying 'England... Expects'.

Gabriel Clarke sniffs Harry Kane's jockstrap when he's not looking, pass it on.

[Adam]

Danny Murphy!? Game ruined.

[Malenko]

Fun fact: Leicester and Besiktas are tied for second most represented side in the Portuguese National Team (2 each).

Number 1 is unattached (4 players who just left Sporting).
