Just that really. England - Wales. Couldn't see a thread. Not super exciting yet...

No

Justtheonethanks9099 · 29/11/2022 19:32

Yes!
But gutted no Masterchef tonight as a result :-(

Bisk · 29/11/2022 19:33

No. It's great.

StaceySolomonSwash · 29/11/2022 19:33

It's boring. So much diving you'd think it was swimming!

RunningFromInsanity · 29/11/2022 19:33

I’m watching. I so wanted Wales to go through too, but England need a convincing win now so we need to up our game.

MajesticWhine · 29/11/2022 19:36

Shame for Nico Williams - looking a bit queasy.

Nope. Couldn't care less. And I'm English, living in Wales!

Yes, I'm sat in front of it but I'm on here. One eye on the telly.

FormerlySpeckledyHen · 29/11/2022 19:49

Yes. Dull game.

PurplePositivity · 29/11/2022 19:55

I am, I'm bored shitless and flicking between MN and Vinted!

FourChimneys · 29/11/2022 19:57

No, not interested even if it wasn't such a shameful world cup.

The two football fans in our family are boycotting the whole thing.

They said Chesney Hawkes was coming on for half time entertainment but they're not showing him - I want Chesney!!

BigSandyBalls2015 · 29/11/2022 19:57

Boring isn’t it.

No they don't, a draw will still see them top the group (unless US score 3 more)!

England have been very disappointing.

InternetRandom · 29/11/2022 19:59

Yeah. Like pulling teeth

Same. I only clicked to tell everyone we're missing Chesney.

It's on here, hence I'm looking at my phone...

UrsulaPandress · 29/11/2022 20:03

Yawn yawn yawn

AnyFucker · 29/11/2022 20:04

I have it on but why does it take five grown men to comment on it ?

Kazzyhoward · 29/11/2022 20:04

I've been watching but it's pretty dull. I've seen better football playing in lower leagues. Can't believe all the poor passes, shots way off target, etc. I thought last Friday, England were poor against USA, but they're worse today. It's very poor considering so many players are Premier league players!

OwwwMuuuum · 29/11/2022 20:05

No. Men’s football is a totally irrelevant and boring waste of time and money, this tournament specifically has a whole ton of human rights abuse red flags.

By the way, women’s football ditto, I just wanted to say men’s football. Because that’s what it is. I hate seeing “football” and “women’s football”. It’s all football, it’s all boring. I would rather watch someone pull their own toenails out with pliers that support this.

Fentylipgloss · 29/11/2022 20:09

... and they score!!!!

FormerlySpeckledyHen · 29/11/2022 20:10

Fabulous ⚽️

HeddaGarbled · 29/11/2022 20:10

England need a convincing win now

They don’t really. Tactically, the sensible thing to do would be to play it safe. Though, as I type Rashford’s just scored.
