Amazing.

Emotional scenes from the Nigerians.

[KiwiPie]

Just watched highlights of Aus v Nigeria, looked a cracking game. Aus still with a chance, will need to win their last game - any chance of Kerr being fit?

USA should be too good for Portugal. Interesting how Vietnam could hardly muster an attack v Portugal who could hardly muster an attack v Netherlands who could hardly muster an attack v USA.

This is a belter of a kick

[antipodean]

And this one isn't half bad either, although I'm wondering why the goalkeeper didn't leave the ground.

Just watched the highlights of the SA v Arg match

Looked like the game of the tournament to date

Great weather for a daylight match
Great crowd and atmosphere
Cracking goals
Great drama

SA will be kicking themselves for not securing their first WC win

[MiketheSnow]

Great start from England

Cracking strike from James

Eng 1 -0 Den
6 mins

[MiketheSnow]

Denmark right back in to this

Could easily be 1-1

[antipodean]

I realise this comes across poorly in this day and age, but some of these players are fit as fuck.

[MiketheSnow]

That's the half

England go in 1 up

Could easily be 1-1 or 3-0

[MiketheSnow]

Denmark deserved that to go in

England hanging on

[MiketheSnow]

England ground that one out

Good tournament performance

Need to find some spark if they want to contest for the prize

England 1 - 0 Denmark

[MiketheSnow]

What a bullshit call against Haiti

Thought I was watching AFL

[MiketheSnow]

VAR
Very arbitrary reffing

Haiti shafted 3 times for penalties

The fix is in

[Stargazer]

No surprises there. It's Palmerston North.

My mate's manager's son plays for the Under 14 Oz team.
Brazilian women's team played them in a warm-up.
The 12/13 year-olds beat them three nil.
Thought it was funny.

I was watching the swimming world championships the other day and a guy who came dead last in one of heats had a time that smashed the women's world record. But that didn't stop me enjoying the female races or make their achievements any less impressive because there is a clear distinction between the sexes in these comps. The morons advocating for "equality" or whatever tf are undermining female sports by insinuating there is no distinction. There bloody is, but thats perfectly fine. Just like with weight divisions in combat sports.

Ultimately the buzz around this comp appears to be genuine and that's a good thing.

I’m sure the team are just itching to go for a night out in Palmy with some pudgy middle aged knob on a scooter with a pink helmet.
