    Neymar's injury may be a blessing in disguise. Sometimes in his self absorption he slows down the pace of the game. But he is magical at times.

    Brazil won the Copa América in 2019 without Neymar, and they have the depth in the squad to replace him. His role is different now as the no.10, not the main striker.

    Hopefully that was a good watch for the neutrals

    Thoroughly deserved win for Iran

    You always have to applaud endeavour, and going for it

    They didn't stop attacking

    Two great goals, could have been 5

    If US get hammered by England, that last match could be a belter

    I only watched the highlights. But Brazil are very easy on the eye, the panache seemed to be back

    The brain fart by the Welsh keeper tipped the balance in the end, but Iran were already the more positive side

    US needs to pressure McGuirre. He's a liability.

    US making a good fist of it although England has the potential to be more clinical. Great contest so far.

    I think they were the better team on the day. We won the midfield battle. Just poor service into of the box, corners were not taken advantage of and tended to delay on attack. Just have to beat Iran now or go home.

    The USA certainly had the best opportunities, like Pulisic's shot.

    This clash will be bigger than the game itself.

    Was that 0-0 because neither country wants James Corden?

    That Ecuador v Netherlands match wasn’t too bad.

    Great win by Iran.

    Loving the work of SBS here in Oz.

    I can get up of a Saturday morning, pull up their Youtube channel, and watch a 2-minute summary of every game.

    England v Iran was goal-goal-goal-goal-goal-goal-goal-goal and then some of the 0-0 have been chance-chance-chance-chance-chance etc.

    @ACT-Crusader the Dutch were disappointing and lacked intensity. Unless they were happy with the draw they won't be going anywhere.

    @Rapido Really? What McGuire is good at is his aerial game but Englands best? I would say Cane was their best and they really weren't good at all. Hopefully for the English fan it was because they had 3 points already.

    That's is a spectacularly ghastly Aussie change kit, well done.

    Football Associations to discuss quitting FIFA after being silenced during World Cup

    Denmark will have conversations with other member nations from UEFA, including England, about leaving FIFA, after issues over protests during the World Cup

    cant see it happening, either fifa will fold, apologise, promise to do better or these countries would fold if fifa called their bluff...but...the tiny part of my that loves some anarchy would love to see it

    Did you see his 'i feel disabled, I feel like a migrant worker' speech? The most embarrassing, cringey shit I've ever heard
