Yeh it’s not good is it. Thought the Dutch would have been more progressive.

Come on Senegal

Think I’d rather play Senegal or Ecuador in last 16 mind, so not too bothered about that goal 

[jmjhb]

Dutch have been crap, but that goal means we're likely not to face them 

[Tonge moor green jacket]

Well, we had an appointment for half four today.

We got a message this morning saying it had been brought forward to half one!

Missed the entire England game. 😡

 

[Tonge moor green jacket]

One observation is Senegal players being so willing to go to ground to make a tackle.

All well and good with their athleticism but it's risky and you can see a penalty or a red card on the cards.

It's a feature of African teams over the years. Risky.

[jmjhb]

Mendy has shown in the last season and a half, and in this game, that he actually isn't very good

[Whitesince63]

Come on the good ole USA next, stuff the England B team tonight please.

Quite

Nice boring 0-0 in this one please.

Maybe with Bale getting injured. Something about the fella makes my teeth itch.

[Rizlar]

Can’t stand Bale hope they get thrashed

American population 331 million 

Wales population 3 million.

 

America should win 76-0

It’s just pure logic

Couple of decent anthems here

I thought they were both wrong.

Go and take a yellow before kick off- oh aye, and risk getting a second in the game and seeing red. Miss the second game with all its potential consequences. 

Sick of pundits etc putting pressure on the players.

Yes from a group point of view MK but I just detest the Welsh. 🥴😎

Star spangled banner is proper shit.

Some very moist eyes in the Welsh crowd as they proudly belt out their anthem.

The pressure was put upon them by themselves.

'Yeah, I'll wear the armband. It will make it look like I really care about the issue, and make me an hero. My employer will pay the fine. Whats that ? I may be get a yellow ? oh, I don't care THAT much about the cause'.

What did he say?

He said they shouldn’t have bottled it, but worn the armband, see if FIFA sanction them (yellow) and then not do it for the 2nd match.

Then they’ll get the message across loud and clear and would have been authentic.

[Wullie]

been saying for years, the big european nations tell FIFA to do one and they'll shit themselves, they need our revenue stream to keep going.

 

Anyway, hopefully a draw between these two

[L/H White]

We should have brought the 3rd keeper on and made him captain
