World Cup

[Oblomov22]

So irrespective of views. Here we are. First March. Qatar v Ecuador. 1 goal.

That was a beauty of a goal

Starting to feel nervous about our match now!
I really love the French kit. So simple and stylish. Why do we always seem to have light blue in ours?

I always watch English knockout matches with the expectation that we'll lose after watching them for so long.

Poland haven't had any luck at all with the half chances. France don't look anything special today.

It could have been very different if that triple chance for the Poles had gone in earlier.

@TassLeHoff I'm the same.
And if we go out it's still been a fantastic World Cup

...he says, obviously.

@xalo indeed

I haven’t watched many games but it’s been fantastic. Love the World Cup

Hope we do well tonight, clashes with four year old bedtime which makes me get a move on

Wow that was fab!

A bit special there!

At elite level sporting teams need skill, confidence and luck.

France has been the better team this match, Poland played better than I expected based in their previous games.

If Mbappe keeps doing that my money is looking safe.

How will England cope with Mbappe?
( If we get through that is) Oh penalty?

What was that Lewandowski, lucky to get a re-take there

Consolation penalty for the Poles. Saved by Lloris! No. To be retaken. Scores.

Peep peep!

Time to start biting our collective nails for later.

Ah well, he gets his goal

How was that a pen?

can’t Give that, surely?

Dodgy penalty, but luckily it had no impact on the result.

Still no clean sheet for the Spurs keeper.

I'm very happy as getting plenty of free bets thanks to Paddy powers golden boot offer

I got quite fed up with all the fuss about Messi yesterday. Mbappe is so much better.

That's a bit unfair on Messi. He's a shadow of his former self (and won 7 ballon d'ors).
