Great goal from Alvarez

Dead heat for which game I'd prefer to be watching right now.

[Lt. Aldo Raine]

I obviously pay less attention to the PL than I thought.

Apparently Alvarez plays for City.

I wanted Poland to put the Argies out. However as they've been so shit, they can do one. Mexico to score a very late 3rd and go through 

[Burndens Bogs]

Can’t believe Polands attitude in this game, they’ll only have themselves to blame if they go out.

Hope they do tbh.

Messi's penalty miss too!

[radcliffe white]

France won’t be worrying 

[Tonge moor green jacket]

Ah well, head choppers and no shunters club have scored.

[Marc505]

Almost embarrassing to watch Poland celebrating like that 🤣

[stevieb]

Quite happy for shit quality teams to go through. 

Easier for England to bring it home

Don't think it matters from this group. Argies getting better but rest not up to much.

Unless they change mentality and playstyle, Poland have no chance v France, unless they play for 0-0 and penalties, because they offerd literally nothing in attack tonight.

The Jam Rolls will get pulverised by France, they are shocking.

I hope they somehow scab a win in next game v France so we play them in the quarters.

But there’s no chance of that if they perform like they did tonight - shocking.

To put it in perspective, it made Wales look good

Wales weren't good, but they put a bit of effort in.

Bit misleading that - as teams from E and G will also be in our side of the draw.

Despite some upsets, best sides so far have topped their groups. Belgians look most likely to spoil that stat.

[lobbypond]

After the group stages they should just have a draw 1st v 2nd, it'll make it less dull.

I've never been a huge fan either ... but ... he was an integral part of the Liverpool side that won the league and Klopp had every faith in him.  Sometimes one just has to accept a player is more important to a side than one can actually see.

Despite Southgate spending every waking hour thinking about gays and blacks rather than coaching his team, he's doing okay and I'm happy to put my trust in him, even though I don't necessarily agree with his selections at times.

I'll be waiting for you.

The African nations are definitely a lot shitter than they were a decade ago or so, it's a shame, but I'm not sure we'll see anything other than European or South American teams winning, or even coming close to winning the WC in our lifetimes

Yes, agreed. Their problems will always be temperament related. Some fantastically athletic and skilful players mind. I always expect one or more to have a meltdown over a poor refereeing decision or similar. European or South American winners for a very long time yet.
