Japan really struggling to break down that Dutchie defense.

If they go down the left side I’m pretty sure they could pass the Dutchie

Fucking hydration break in an air condition stadium. Yeah we all need the 3 minute pause

It's just a way of creating a 4 quarter game as per American football to squeeze in adverts. Watch this space for whether it carries on after the world cup.

Bollocks, Van Bike has just scored.

I wish they’d stop peddling the lines he’s the best centre back ever

Disappointed Suzuki is the goalkeeper as wanted to point out he had a good engine

Still just as important for him to be Swift

Sugawara on and has a shot

Played really well, made a difference since coming on. Should be able to get a decent fee for him if he continues to impress.

Werder Breman have a €6 million option on him reportedly.

And how many times is this stupid ref going to get in the way?? Dick.

Noticed this quite a bit this WC especially in the Germany game earlier. Much as I quite like the addition of "Ref Cam", I wonder if them getting in the way has something to do with the new cyborg-esque camera attached to their heads.

A sneaky win from Ivory Coast. They and Norway are my dark horses to do well in the tournament this year. 

 

Thriller coming up at 3am - Sweden vs Tunisia. Surely Isak and Gyokeres will be too much for Tunisia... stay tuned peeps. I'll be watching.

You'd think so. Got a decent bet reliant on those two doing well - Isak 2+ shots on target, Gyokeres 1+ shot on target and both players to score anytime, 31/4. Tenner returns 80 something quid.

I think Tunisia will be a tricky opponent but you can't argue with Sweden's firepower, even if Isak has been off it a bit since his injury.

I'm looking at Isak drifting out wide and being up against Valery and thinking he'll make an impact.

Aye. One more Isak shot on target and a goal for Victor. 

Valéry nowhere to be seen there with Isak running down his flank.

Sheffield Wednesday defender against nearly £200 million of attacking talent was always going to be tough going. Could get worse for Tunisia

No idea who the woman presenting is on ITV but she's absolutely grating on me, doing the pretentious thing that I really hate where she's putting over the top accents on words to make sure everyone knows that she knows how to say them, even Carney seemed pissed off with her then when she suggested not being critical of a player because it was his first world cup.

That'll do right?

Need another shot from Isak. He had one earlier but blocked shots are counted differently by betting companies 🙄

And another blocked one. Really annoying.

Well no idea when the second shot was but the bet has paid out, get in.

Well done!

 

Another great hit by Ayari...

Great showing from Sweden here despite not necessarily deserving to be here. 

They have some quality particularly in attack. I still think one of the big boys will win the tournament (France are my tip) but it wouldn't be a surprise to see a so-called lesser team like Sweden do well.

A quick look at some of the attacking talent of the big boys though shows you all you need to know about their chances.

France - Mbappe, Dembele, Olise, Doue... the list goes on.

England - Kane, Saka, Bellingham 

Germany - Musiala, Havertz, Wirtz

Argentina - Messi, Alvarez, Martinez

Spain - Yamal, Williams, Pedri

For me it'll be one of those 5 based on attacking talent - I think France's all round team is best though.

‘Incredible gesture’

Most of the world and definitely the UK could learn a lot from the Japanese. They are brought up in a culture that takes pride in their surroundings. School children clean their classrooms and school grounds. They believe it's a shared responsibility. I wonder what they make of Britain with it's out of control fly tipping and rubbish strewn streets.

I didn't watch but the match report I've just read commented how it broke up the flow of the game. I intensely dislike Infantino and his minions and hope that the next time he's up Trump's arse he gets stuck.

Agree, but that isn’t the point he was making. It is great but predictable.

They were also the most vicious sadists in WW2
