USA play a very front footed style. Are they managed by Mauricio Pellegrino?

[John Boy Saint]

Is it just my TV or is the US Stadium for a home game resembling Highbury - so quiet

[RedArmy]

Poch has got those yanks playing some good stuff. 

[jamesfp1]

Scotland long ball to Stewart tonight. Makes sense.

Genuine question....do you ever sleep?

Curse of the shift worker. Body clock all over the place. On the positive side, it's working for me rather well this tournament.

You just made me think of the last time it was in the USA, my eldest was fresh out of the factory, and probably why she likes football, I was taking the late night shift mixing up the formula and feeding her sat on end of the bed watching the game whilst Mrs JBS snored away.

I meant to say last night I thought the pundit panel of Emma, Ange, and once our Bradley Wright- Phillips were pretty good on the Canada game. Saw that’s what Bradley does now on TV for MLS games in the states - unlike his Dad he wasn’t sat on his seat looking like he was waiting for the bell to go in class  to be the first out the door to home at the end of school. 

Yeah I thought BWP was pretty good.

Does Giroud do a sleep podcast?

[Miltonaggro]

Enjoying the ITV trio of Keane, Ferguson and Postcoglou. Old school punditry.

Whereas the trio of Walcott, Rooney and Giroud is coma-inducing...

[John Boy Saint]

Oops

[64saint]

71 seconds and the Jocks are behind. Oh s**t

Gunn like a flailing tube man there

Jim Leighton would have let it in two seconds earlier!

Morocco look very good

[The Kraken]

The sun/shadow is really quite off putting.

Almost as off putting as Scotland’s “defence”. Shambles.

[Winnersaint]

As Duckhunter might say ‘Sweaties looking embarrassingly poor’.

 

 

[Miltonaggro]

Like a decent Prem side v Championship strugglers at the mo, which is pretty much what it is. 

[macca155]

Bloody hell this Morocco side is good, I wonder how long they can play at this pace. No wonder Brazil struggled.

As for Scotland ...... desperate 

[whelk]

Bit of Irn Bru might kick them into life

[Saint NL]

The camera angle is really weird for this game. Too low or something

Yeah I thought that. Conversely the other day I forget which game it was but the camera seemed miles from the pitch! I kept wanting the camera man to zoom in a bit! 

[SNSUN]

Not a great watch this. Unless Scotland come out fighting it's not the best game.

My daughter was born June 2018 so I had that same privilege then. 3 weeks leave rolled in with 2 weeks paternity meant I got to watch a LOT of the World Cup. Admittedly through a lack of sleep caused by sleepless nights. 

[SNSUN]

This is painful. Get LND on bitch. 

[John Boy Saint]

Moroccans look like they have got loads more gears to go in to. 

[Patrick Bateman]

This match is so shit

If Scotland somehow score they'll need them. But right now they don't look like even getting close. Just bung a load of attackers on and see how they go.

[SNSUN]

...except Dykes. Oh wait they're bringing Dykes on. 🙄

Fitness levels are out of this world they should be 4 up, think they will get another goal to make it 2 -0 soon.

Especially when the opposition subs are McLean and Dykes. I think you might be right. 

[SNSUN]

Can't see Scotland scoring, or getting anything against Brazil, so it's a case of whether 3 points is going to be enough for them to scrape through as 3rd place best finishers. Can't see it. 85 minutes played and Clarke has only made 3 subs when more were needed. 

Hang on... Scotland corner...
