Looking like it’ll be extra time at this rate.

Have to keep reminding myself that these two teams always play like this together.

Good point

I thought Spain would up the tempo a bit in the second half, but instead they seem to have gone into snooze mode.

Maybe they just cba.
It looks like it at the moment.

Playing for pens?

I’m hoping for penalties! Love it when it’s someone else’s 😀 and a Spain win

Can't they find anything other than bloody Living on a Prayer for hydration breaks!!!

Still dull…

I’m rewatching mex-Eng it’s nice watching it without the panic

Living on a prayer. A banger!

For once, the 'hydration break' is more interesting than the game.

apt user name!

Making a few subs. Woke them up for it

Love the 80s tunes! Lol

@moto748e The referee we had last night was Australian/Iranian. Some referees don’t work in the most competitive leagues and it shows. His third World Cup but he’s not refereeing in football’s top leagues. Var were all from South America in our match.

Ageee - Portugal vs Spain is pretty dull.

There is someone with a trumpet trying to whip up some enthusiasm.

Don't know about Dallas, more like Dullsville, New Mexico.

Has anyone watched any of the games on World Cup Classics (ITV)? I watched the Argentina v England 1998 game last week, the goal by Owen was bloody legendary!

If I found this game dull, I wouldn't watch it. 🤷

We have a goal!

GOOOAAAL yes!

A goal finally !

So we're spared extra time!

Adios Ronaldo!

Ole!! 🇪🇸 ⚽️
