I don't know. We've played well so far. Great save by Pickford

I hope not. I’m only awake because I think this is our last 90mins of football this tournament.

Watching from Canada. Civilized timing for us :)
Come on 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Didn't medieval people sleep for a few hours, get up in the middle of the night, do something for an hour or so and then go back to sleep?

We look very determined

Yes. That was my plan. But I was or up after half an hour. Tomorrow is going to be hard 😂

I feel like years of sleepless and split nights with my youngest has trained me for this… unfortunately I think it will go to extra time. Too close to call which way it will go, I’ve been pessimistic in the build up but now I’m watching I have a good feeling. Mexico look good though.

They did yes.

Or as I like to call it - perimenopause.

Mexico have looked good in all the games I’ve seen them play over the past couple of weeks.

Don’t say that! Gordon is doing well.

Morning everyone

I’ve not been able to post for a while. I was put on ‘cool-down’ for posting too much 😱🤣 is this a new thing? Was only helping to fill up old thread

He's having a fantastic game. I like O'Reilly as well.

🤣🤣🤣 thank god I’m through that fresh hell now and in post menopause. Peri is a complete and utter bitch. And hardly anyone knows about it!

I have a feeling the referee is going to be unwilling to card the Mexicans.

I’ve never seen such sweat literally dropping off people’s faces before. Praise to the team(s) playing properly in those conditions.

Had a quick power nap after the Brazil and Norway match now back in the zone. It's all very nerve wracking 😨

He is isn’t he? Yes O’Reilly doing well too.

You have to do it verrrrrrrrrrry carefully!

He really is!

Come on Gordon

Never heard of that, how odd

I’ll leave it to you next time 🙈 It was very frustrating not being able to post

Hope he's nothing like the ref in France v Paraguay !!!!
