World Cup 2018

Well I didn't expect Germany to lose that game.

MEXICO showed there is no such thing as an easy game in world football.
BRAZIL showed they have learnt nothing since they were taken apart by GERMANY.
They look good going forward BRAZIL but defend badly.

Promising signs for England. We need to be more clinical but if we play like the first half hour we can compete.

The 2nd half was frustrating, Tunisia sat back and wanted a draw. There was little space so it became arduous but a great win in the end.

Not sure how VAR wasn't used on the 2 pulls on Kane. Confusing system.

Pretty happy with the performance but the finishing was shocking - even worse than us - apart from Kane of course.
As for VAR, I don’t have a problem in principle but this morning I’m thinking what’s the point if it misses the 2 most clearcut penalties imaginable?

Luongo misses out again for Australia in their match against Denmark today

It could actually go against us that he isn't playing because he may feel he needs to move on to get more recognition at international level.

I know we were all worried he could play well and get spotted but it could still work against us that he isn't playing.

I would personally have liked to have seen what he can do but he is well down the pecking order to not even come on a sub.

Australia were actually a little unlucky not to win this afternoon.

I fancy Loftus-Cheek to do very well today if he plays. We just need to win again, it doesn't need to be pretty, just secure a place in the next round!
