2026 World Cup

Haaland, with 10 minutes to go. He is genuinely a monster of a striker. Gabriel sat on his arse Brazil are really going to have to step this up.

[peterbread]

Haaland scores another and even better leaves Gabriel on the floor.

[Tatterdemalion]

Glad to see Neymar on the pitch. not.

Anyone see anything other than a France win this WC? They look miles, miles better than everyone else (didn't see Paraguay mind)

Though Lucas Digne at LB is a bit of a surprise

I think it's got to the stage it would be an upset if any other team won it now. They'd be deserved winners imo. They handled Paraguay really well. Obviously didn't turn them over, but there was only one team who didn't want to get to pens. Paraguay played like thugs and France did really well to keep a lid on their reactions, especially MBappe who is beginning to look like a decent player

[ChesterDave]

They set the precedent doing it for Ronaldo. I'd bet a limb they wouldn't do it for a minnow nation.

That American guy who got an obvious red card in the last match has had his one game ban overturned, or rather suspended. wtf?

An absolute joke of a decision.

Let’s get America, Ronaldo and Messi as far as possible in the World Cup at any cost. Messi Ronaldo final incoming.

That FIFA overturned Balogan's red card is a ****ing disgrace. I'm glad I'm not too invested in international sport and the farce of the WC/FIFA. But even still, it's absolutely bollocks which is something for them.

[Lee]

Incredible. Making it up as they go along, just as they did with Ronaldo’s two-game suspension.

Bent as ****.

I thought France largely dealt with their ****housery fairly well, referee was awful and glad to see the back of them.

Yeah only one team turned up to play. Their coach said it’d been 16 years since their last time in the Finals & the majority of football fans hope it’s at least that long again.

Glad to see the back of Paraguay.

Yeah park the bus until you concede & then try to play. Anti football loses thankfully.

[peterbread]

Haha the Paraguay players complaining to the ref. I don’t know what they have to complain about. Shocking ref and ****house from Paraguay.

Not one yellow for Paraguay.
