June 16Jun 16 Author Several of the top referees in the world say penalty, @elvissays it wasn't, who to believe. 😂😂😂

June 16Jun 16 France win and for a large part of the second half they gave the perhaps rightful AFCON champions the run around.
June 16Jun 16 On the Pen decision - I think the ref got it wrong this time but often it looks to me like the forward deliberately hits the defenders leg to buy a penalty - I thought that was the case for Germany the other night. Lawrence Shankland does it well IMO. If it's not a Pen then Shirley it's a yellow card for Mbappe. Guy Mowbray is a shit commentator! Edited June 16Jun 16 by Bud the Baker

The world cup isn't for everyone. Three correct outcomes from four, no correct scores.

June 17Jun 17 Author It's a bit embarrassing that there's only a reported 10,000 - 15,000 England fans over in the USA. Scotland have around the 30,000 mark, superb taking into account the mental costs involved.

Sorry if my English was unclear but I was trying to say that the Mbappe incident (not given) last night was a penalty but that the one awarded against Curacao for Germany (given) the other night wasn't. The idea that there is "no chance at all" that a player of Mbappe's ability could've simulated the incident is the "nonsensical line".

The idea that there is "no chance at all" that a player of Mbappe's ability could've simulated the incident is the "nonsensical line". It was very clear, I was just not really bothered about all the other stuff. So, no worries on your point on the Mbappe penalty mate.
June 17Jun 17 Author Portugal 1-1 DR Congo. Got to say I'm a tad surprised but a deserved score at half time. Portugal, similar to France last night, haven't looked too interested, maybe taking them lightly. Congo are pretty direct and move the ball at pace. Good equaliser bang on half time, a great header, not something you see too often these days. Edited June 17Jun 17 by faraway saint
June 17Jun 17 A half of two quarters with Zaire looking a bit more of a football team than they did against us in 74.

June 17Jun 17 Author Got to give Tuchel credit as he's not scared to bring in fairly young players all over the pitch.
