The way FIFA have controlled the footage from this tournament has been ridiculous. There is never a pitch wide shot at the end of any match and they completely avoid showing any sort of confrontation. Hence why we didn’t see Argentina players swinging punches at celebrating Spain players and Parades finally getting his well overdue marching orders

Plenty of time for FIFA, sorry Argentina to turn this round. But I’m really hoping for a lot of Argentina close ups if nothing changes

Nothing wrong with anything there at all. Even by Argentine VAR standards this would be seriously embarassing

Standard from Enzo

Looking forward to hearing Tuchel explain why Saka didn’t play a minute on Wednesday

Saka and Rashford playing like they have a point to prove. I assumed they hadn’t played on Wednesday because they were injured. But clearly it was just that Tuchel doesn't rate them. France look like they couldn’t give less of a shit if they tried. But this is still a bad look for Tuchel

Tuchel doubling down. No regrets

It’s not just that we sat deep, but quite how deep we dropped. For the Fernandez goal I think we had 11 players in our own 6 yard box marking 4 Argentina players whilst 4 of their players waited unmarked outside the 18 yard box. Amateur hour

Even in the last minute of injury time when they were winning, Argentina still had 2 players forward to give them an outlet. Exactly what we needed to do. Kane was fucked and should have been replaced by Rashford who would have at least had a chance of giving them something to think about. What a wasted opportunity

I kind of get that Madueke is going to cut in onto his stronger foot when he’s playing on the right. But surely you move him to the left so he can go on the outside? Even on the left wing he cut inside every time. But now onto his weaker foot

Agree that Madueke had a poor match. But I still think he was better than Gordon

Burstow off. Simons on please.

Referee seems to have forgotten his cards

Shocking decision from McAtee. Simple pass for a tap in.

The problem with Republicans trying to use this argument is that they have spent years arguing "Don't tread on me". They’ve long supported the right to bear arms, protected states right and rejected federal overreach. They’ve previously praised people for turning up to protests not just with weapons on their person but very much on show. Suddenly they’ve abandoned all these principles. I’m guessing the same people saying Pretti should have stayed at home might not have supported the Capitol police if they had chosen to mow down all the protestors who arrived at congress with weapons on January 6th and actually were intent on violence. The hypocrisy would be laughable if it wasn’t so disgusting.
