Poor defending.

That was incredible

Decent attempt there by Lewa. He’s going to score if he gets many more of those.

At UEFA Euro 2016 in France, Lewandowski did not have a shot on target until the last-16 match against Switzerland in Saint-Étienne.[223] Guess that answers my question

Only player I'm rooting for is Woj. I'd be very surprised if Poland turn up here, they've been pretty poor. Has Lewandowski done much for the side ever outside of qualifying for tournaments?

@Pafnus can you just keep it all to one thread if you must. Thanks.

Need to have teams from other confederations qualifying or it's not really a World Cup. There's better ways they can slice the 48 to make the format better than is the current plan, and it sounds like it might still change. It's still not really clear how they can sustain a tournament that big going forward. Canada were great, could have been a different final game for them had they got their deserved point vs Belgium. They were also the best team from CONCACAF as well Can't really agree that Asia and Africa are terrible, both have sides in the R16 and at least one should reach QFs. I'd agree the main World Cup should stay at 32 teams, but I'd like to see a few less European and more elsewhere. Increase the playoffs.

They won't (escape military service).

Tipping them to get past Croatia but I think it would be close.

Not sure you'd like the answer to that question really.

Seems like a Valve related issue with the Steam client rather than ours. Did you get this for any other title? Might be worth pinging them a support ticket: https://help.steampowered.com/en/

We do as fans, sure. Think Fifa will be motivated by more TV money though, so who knows. Capitalism will win over sport at the end of the day.

Sure, if you play the same XI. But there's squads, and they can rotate. Just like clubs do.

The real travesty of this group is Canada are not going through and we don't get John Herdman belting out O Canada in the R16 anymore.

Hope Belgium finally sack Martinez now, they should have gotten rid ages ago. Belgium just didn't look sharp enough up front.

They've almost got it. Just go with my idea But if they just played 5 games in just over 2 weeks, having a 5 or 6 day break til the next game for them would be welcomed, tbh.

I don't know about speculating about his tolerance, but the point about him not either liking football or not watching it is probably not that uncommon generally among football players. Anyway, I hope too he is okay.

Feel for Australia as I would have put money on them beating Poland to nil.

Ashley Williams saying Lewa will feel like he deserves to be in the knockouts because he's a star Has barely done anything for Poland so far.

That was a brilliant 45 mins, both games

Both

Poland should be out.

Saudi Arabia doing their best to keep this to 2.

About an hour? Could chopper the team to the other stadium probably, get there in 10 minutes
