Coulthard's Jaw

Exciting first half but feels like Serbia have this won.

Seems a bit mad to me they have a striker who Juventus paid 80m for just sitting on the bench.

Atmosphere sounds loads better on 5 Live than the TV coverage.

16 extra knockout games is a good thing imo.

Also, Spain will think that 7/8 times out of 10, they beat Germany. But a Germany floating around in the tournament could knock out another big beast who Spain do worry about.

Wouldn't be surprised if Costa Rica get a result against them.

Shearer says he has to go for the shot, but if he rolls it across its 100% a goal.

Monday is kind of my day off from the World Cup Will see the 7 game.

Dunno how the groups are going to look in 2026, but I'd fancy Canada to reach last 16, they'll have learnt so much from these two matches.

I'm out and about this afternoon so anyone who wants to do match threads, now's your chance!

Basically, yes.

Lifeline for Germany!

Comically overhit cross there but standard for this world cup.

West coast 9pm kick off times would definitely be v bad for us

So it's back to a 32 day world cup (28 for this one), so 4 games a day means you can fit the extra 16 games in on those 4 days I guess.

Spain are fine with their GD! Germany with a massive advantage because they will know what they need to do against Costa Rica. Sayōnara.

He shouldn't have played against Germany.

Yes! Someone is thinking clearly on a Sunday morning at least

It's Michael Oliver time!

Teams Table A win point for Japan means Germany would be facing World Cup ELIMINATION tonight in their game against Spain.

This is the Lusail Iconic Stadium, where Brazil beat Serbia 2-0 Table Argentina If they lose, they are OUT. A draw leaves them on the brink but with a chance. A win and they are back on course. Mexico A loss makes it difficult, a draw and its a final day showdown with Saudi Arabia, as does a win but that makes the Saudi game easier for them. Teams TV Coverage Keane! Nev! Cole :/ Alas, it's Matterface and Dixon commentating. Head to Head 3 previous meetings at the World Cup, Argentina have won them all. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5UhP7rqwvg Here's the one with Maradona.

I don't mind taking a defensive approach, but we weren't very good at it! Allowing your opponent to have several good chances isn't great.

Denmark's World Cup has finally got started!

Bit of a ****** tackle that.
