Yeah true I missed the 1st few matches but I’m onto it now.

An entertaining match finishes 2-2 between the Kiwis and Iran after the Kiwis led twice.

Yeah - WC is on great time of the day here for us in AU - esp when I work from home

Great goal against the run of play & NZ lead 1-0 after 8 mins.

some things never change.

ESPN pundits Craig Burley and Stevie Nicol both criticized his response after giving off a similar attitude toward Arne Slot in the Premier League last season.

"Some things never change. Mo Salah was substituted and it wasn't Arne Slot and he took the hump. He took the raving hump," Burley said during ESPN's post-match coverage.

"You wouldn't expect him to come off with a smile on his face because you don't want to be taken off, but he came off with the raving hump again and blanked the Egyptian manager. So it's not just Liverpool where Mo likes to be in charge."

NZ kicks off their campaign in 10 mins vs Iran. It’s all about if they can get service to Chris Wood. C’mon you Kiwis. Not sure if we’ve got any Kiwi’s on here.

Social media has been overflowing with people desperate to defend the ref saying he wasn't doing a white power sign but the sign for OK.

Well the ref himself has spoken and confirmed it was.........

"an involuntary, subconscious twitch"

OK buddy, and you tripped while vacuuming naked, right?

[Charly]

So "we" have 2 goals and 5 assists so far?

Wanted to cut in side but not very successful, much better going outside and down the line.

When he was down the right most of the time he went outside the fullback and put in a cross. He also looked very strong, Hincapie is a physical defender and he struggled to stop Diomande.

[baitman]

Whenever he took on Hincapié he had him beat easily, he made it look very easy when he switched it on. He’s clearly got bags of potential and plenty of pace. He looked better on the right than he did on the left.

So overnight we’ve had this from our lads

Gravenberch with 2 assists
Virg with a goal
Wirtz with an assist
Isaak with a goal & 2 assists

[SB]

Watching on catch-up as forgot it was on. About 20 mins in and decent game so far. Diomande’s passing is good, just created a lovely chance, but his touch looks erratic. He’s very dynamic but untidy.

I just saw the 2nd half & yeah he’s a work in progress but I’d have him at LFC in a heart beat . He switched to the left side after they made a substitution & that defender handled him better but I’d love to see Dio & Rio as our wide forwards with Hugo in the middle.

Anyone watching Yan Diomande at present? I’m trying to watch but I’m taking my Mum to the Doctors.
