[Football] England V Iran

[BrightonCottager]

Why are they playing the Mitro song after the goals? It's not Serbia playing.

Tripper is giving the ball away a lot.

 

[vegster]

who didn't want Maguire in the team? one assist and hit the bar

Are we playing Iran every match then ?

 

[FamilyGuy]

Lovely goal by the Chelsea left wing back there!

This looks to be the low water mark for FIFA’s attempts to bring their tournament to new markets. There’s no football pedigree at all in the Gulf States. The supporters have had to be bused in, are utterly silent and the two teams we’ve seen are absolute dogturd, bringing nothing at all to the spectacle.

Short of hosting a World Cup in Antarctica, they’d have been better off playing it more or less anywhere else on Earth where the people actually care.

Ali J goes for the conversion whilst in acres of space

 

[London Irish]

Is he much better than that Jermaine though

 

[GT49er]

Jahanbakhsh doing just what we all know he can do ........................

 

[Randy McNob]

Wow, Southgate is such an awful manager, bound to get sacked after this

Before anyone says shit opposition - remember Algeria 2010

But where was Shaw?
Or does he know Ali J's shooting ability?

 

[Poojah]

Cracking first-half in general that. It’s worth noting that Iran are 20th in the world by the way; we’re making an alright team look very, very shít.

For context, the Iceland team that embarrassed us in 2016 were ranked 34th.

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

I never understand why we go in front and then, fart about with the ball, we should absolutely just go for it, bang in as many as possible, set a record or at least go for it.

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

Professional. Well done. Keep it going

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Great half, absolutely taken them to bits.

 

[Beach Hut]

Excellent first half

so 3-0 at half time isn't good enough?

Or ease off, kill the game and stay booking and injury-free?

 

[RandyWanger]

Are they playing in a library or has the state muted atmosphere microphones so chants can't be heard?

Brought back memories that.

They are playing next to the Emirates after all, what do you expect
