          My biggest concern is about the beret, who knew the French don't know how to wear a proper military beret!

                Pogacar has pulled out of the Olympic Cycling. He is upset that the Slovene cycling team did not pick his girlfriend.

                            Not a big fan of this NZ football team

                            Committing professional fouls and flopping. Miss me with that.

                                All over in Nice. New Zealand beat Guinea 2-1. A draw or a win against either France or USA might see them go through to the knockouts.

                                    It's 0-0 at half time in Marseille in the France-USA football game between the two teams New Zealand still had to play in Group A.

                                          I think we will overachieve to keep the goal difference under 5 against France….
