So we're up against the Seppos in the morning huh?
What are our chances?
Regardless, at least we'll win the anthem... (mixing a couple of translations together as follows...)
My hen laid a haddock on top of a tree,
Glad barks and centurions throw dogs in the sea,
My guru asked Elvis and brandished Dan’s flan,
Don’s muddy bog’s blocked up with sand.
Whales, whales,
Bloody great fishes are whales
They live in the sea; we eat them for tea
By sprink-a-ling salt on their tailsAnd we've got dragons ... they've got, red tinged fireworks?

Firm underdogs, just the way we like it

Yep
USA will be kicking themselves
Should have won this easily
But fair play we got better as the game went on
Moore was fantastic

Not a soccer aficionado, and I started watching from about 55 mins. But from my uneducated eye Wales had the better of the game.

more than just the armband banned, a whole kit that was announced two months ago, surely leaving it so late to take action is just making more press

@Kiwiwomble Yep, the more restrictions are impsoed and the more inadequate FIFA and the Quatari organisers are, the more attention all these issues will get from the media. Exactly the opposite of what they want. I wonder what the next thing is. Banning all the protesters (or their shirts and signage) against the Iranian regime? Organising the tournament in Quatar was always going to lead to political issues. FIFA are so stupid!

Definitely from that point onwards

I still wouldn't trust the English defence once it gets to the knockout stages.
As @MiketheSnow says, the USA were so dominant in the 1st half they were worth more than a 1-0 lead. That came back to bite them through a stupid challenge.

I do like the World Cup for its drama, but everything that is wrong with football and player antics is amplified 10 fold in a World Cup.
Just watching this Senegal v Netherlands replay and the carry on by both sides has been terrible.
Klassen who scored the second goal was slightly hit in a contest just a couple of minutes prior and you’d swear by his reaction he had been maimed, but then runs in for a good goal off the deflection.
