General Football 23/24

Rode their luck big time there, but signs the woman’s team have greater bottle than the mens when the going gets tough.

Oh definitely. I couldn't see any fear out there, even when the chips were down. There's a lot of belief in this tram. Shame about Lauren James mind, that rush of blood will cost her the rest of the tournament probably.

100% - some absolutely cracking pens from England after the first one went wide.

The James red was that moment of madness stuff. Imagine she's in bits at the moment; hopefully she learns from it moving forwards.

That winning the ugly games when you're not at your best and opposition probably deserved to win is a good trait to have.

They're certainly on track

I think the penalty that VAR overturned was a penalty. Nigeria were doing lots of pulling and grabbing at set pieces and there was enough of it there to give. But on the other hand, I approve of punishing players throwing themselves to the ground to win them.

Mad penos Australia v France. 3-3 so far and the Aussie keeper just hit the bar.

[Venton]

Saves and misses galore. Mental stuff, 6-6 now.

It's right down the penalty pecking order as well. France hit the post, prayers to heaven, tears rolling down faces, crazy scenes. Shorts being browned everywhere. And Australia find the net and are through. ****ing hell. That's burned off my hangover.

Quality there from England

Everything that’s wrong with football right here.

Brazil forward Neymar, 31, reportedly requested a 25-room mansion, a swimming pool and sauna, eight workers to keep his house tidy, nine cars and all expenses paid for travel, restaurants and hotels when he signed for Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal. (Cope, via Goal)

25 room mansion? I'd give him a studio with 1 bathroom and 23 utility rooms

Sounds like such a bellend doesn’t he

[RedReet]

Genuinely thought Neymar was about 26, not 31. Was I in a coma during his prime?

We all lost about 3 years there during covid
