Glad NOT to be one of the paying punters in the stadium.
The second half has been a shocker.

WTF France 0-0 Denmark ?!
You'd have to say on current form Belgium, Croatia and England are the only sides that have looked like tournament winners. The other, bigger sides have laboured for much of qualification.

I've just noticed the huge number of photographers lined up behind the advertising hoardings. Surely there aren't that many newspapers in Denmark and France - normally you get a handful of "pool" photographers to capture images that are sent to all tabloids and magazines etc.

Agreed, although France had little to play for here and yet they've just got the job done for a third time. Plus, Germany looked quality against Sweden in the second half.
Personally, I'm looking forward to seeing Argentina go out this evening. As a team, they are shit.

That whole group was dog pooh, both in standard and entertainment.
Agreed, but in all WC's the same old faces power/savvy their way to the trophy come the end. Germany, Spain and France, irritating as it may be, may well overcome the group of new interlopers.

That may come to pass but the likes of Belgium, Croatia, Colombia and even England have a terrific opportunity to go the full 7 matches in this tournament.

Feel sorry for that poor bugger who cycled all the way from India for that rancid pile of old ponce just served up by France and Denmark. That was the only ticket he had as well.
Imagine how angry they'd have been if they had actually needed France to attempt to win to go through. Better that they lost in a way.
As an aside, Maty Ryan notwithstanding, isn't it funny how low Australian sport has sunk recently. I'm enjoying it.
Didn't you hear? The only sport they care about in Australia is Aussie rules.
Oh yeah, forgot about that...... [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

I've tried watching that, but I simply do not have a scooby what the frick is going on. Bewildering sport.
There also seems to be about six referees on the pitch all at the same time.
And the six referees aren't bothered about the players beating the shit out of each other. It's a confusing sport for sure.
That was a week ago. I imagine no state in Australia is interested in cricket, rugby, or football at the moment. There's a lot going on at this time of year you know.
Their sporting arrogance has taken a knock. I wonder if they're as fickle in their support as the average european?

no .....but the previous game was crying out for him when Arzani went on .....a lot of ball across the box that he probably would have used reasonably well.

think the average fan is gutted and the pundits and media are gutted as they are out of a job ..........west coast eagles played a game last thursday that clashed with the WC game , shocking form from the AFL. it's taken me over 20 years to get to the stage where i can watch a whole game and understand the rules , five refs on the pitch and they still get a lot wrong .

It's good once you get to grips with it. Powerful, skilful and exciting.
