Lots of interesting stuff going on....

England v Ivory Coast

- Zaha had a chance to show England "what they could have won" but doesn't feature. Never mind, Jack Grealish starts and is more than capable of filling the petulant, sulky diver role.
- Ben White is the only player who remains in England's line-up from Saturday. England have an abundance of riches at right-back, so Southgate is playing a centre-back there. Naturally.

Portugal v North Macedonia

- Can North Macedonia pull off one more shock and reach the World Cup finals? Is anyone #TeamPortugal tonight? Ronaldo has asked for the Portugese national anthem to be cut from the stadium PA to enable the fans to belt it out acapella Amex-style.

Poland v Sweden

We're all #TeamSwansman, right?

African WC play-off second legs

All to play for, including another Mane v Salah clash...

Nigeria v Ghana (0-0 agg)
Senegal v Egypt (0-1 agg)
Algeria v Cameroon (1-0 agg)
Morocco v DR Congo (1-1 agg)
Tunisia v Mali (1-0 agg)

The chance to see Zaha playing against England was the only reason I intended to watch the game. His absence from the starting line up has removed that last vestige of interest I had in this game.

So did Zaha take one look at Ben White and cry off?

To be fair the England v Ivory Coast game has been a terrific spectacle so far.

I don’t think he was even selected for the game.

From memory Ben has only played against palace for Brighton once, in the October 2020 1-1 draw, when Wilf scored.

So i doubt the answer to your question is yes. :)

Great to see Ollie Watkins on the scoresheet.

Honestly, I had no idea England were playing tonight until I opened this thread.

Says a lot for the current level of my England interest
