World Cup

It ain’t over until the fat lady sings …. And I’m not in good voice tonight…
Harry Kane: England's hero.

England need to up their game in the cauldron of the Azteca Stadium, because several areas of the team misfired badly last night. They will be playing at altitude as well, which will give the Mexicans an even greater home advantage.
 
You missed the part where he drags his leg down and steps right on his ankle

And Messi should have been sent off too.
No he wouldn't and you know that.
One had the ball in the vicinty...one was behind the play
 
Hopefully the Austria Spain match will be good later
Watching Spain play this evening you saw an exciting brand of fast, flowing football, with individual skills on parade alongside dynamic movement and an ability to rip open defences.
In contrast, England are stuck in a boring, post-Pep Guardiola quagmire.
Go back to the Champions League matches between PSG and Bayern Munich to see a new style of high-paced, attacking football which is a million times more entertaining.
England's dull, slowball, possession football becomes meaningless when wingers like Rashford and Madueke have been designated by manager Tuchel as the main points of attack but fail to do anything effective as they dither and run into a wall of defenders.
At least Tuchel made some key substitutions to change the game, with Gordon the key to providing the chances for Harry Kane to win the match.
Defensively, England look all at sea: poor covering in midfield and defenders getting dragged out of position.
Declan Rice needs a kick up the backside: he always moves the ball sideways at a painfully slow pace and his corners have been pathetic.
Mexico will come at us in droves, attacking at pace with the crowd roaring them on.
To cope with the altitude, I fear England will try to slow things down even more!
 
I like Portugal a bit because of the Wolves connection: Ruben Neves, Diogo Jota (RIP), Joao Moutinuo, Jose Sa, Rui Patricio and Pedro Neto etc.

But god, Ronaldo is intolerable.

But my daughter is dating a guy from Croatia.

I am torn.
