Glad I switched off as soon as the Argies scored their first.

Predictable.

Egypt’s defending sphinx.

I can understand the frustration from Egypt. Especially given the precedent set earlier in the game.

If it was England we'd be indignant

Funny how we never got a proper look at it, oh wait because it was Messi's Argentina that will be it....🤦

Unfortunately the corruption shown so far makes that a very realistic possibility.

I'm more worried about facing Norway than the prospect of facing Argentina in a semi-final. They're not all that.

Wouldn’t surprise me if Colombia beat them in quarter finals

Has Messi got a tattoo of Nerys Hughes on his back?

Yeah, my suspicion is that Egypt goal wouldn't have been disallowed had it been an Argentina one. Argument would have been constructed to say "too far back in the move".

Tut Tut. I might be in de-nile, but I thought we'd left puns behind.

Their players have done well to work their way up the football pyramid though.
