    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.

          Just have to beat Iran now or go home.

          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.

                                  I dont want to be the guy bitching about diving, I know I can turn off and not pollute this threat.

                                  But fuck me it's a blight on the game. Football can be such am attractive game, but when an entire match can turn on somebody cheating , it's hard to enjoy.

                                  This Aussie / Tunisia game is only halfway through, and there has been at least 10 incidents of faking injuries (with miraculous recoveries) and diving.

                                  I cant for the life of me understand why authorities don't try harder to stamp it out.

                                    I'm quite amazed at the lack of finishing in most games.

                                    Tunisia are creating plenty and look dangerous but can't turn it into shots on target so it means little.

                                        Anyone who jumps back up after faking should immediately get a yellow card.

                                        They were scared of wearing an armband being a yellow, after all.

                                          I'm quite amazed at the lack of finishing in most games.

                                          Tunisia are creating plenty and look dangerous but can't turn it into shots on target so it means little.

                                          They're well on top in this half

                                          On top but never looked like scoring.
