Saka is rubbish these days.

These lost to Sudan in qualifying by the way

They can actually attack though, Wissa can easily score on the counter

It’s almost like he’s shit

World class Tuchel getting out coached by one of those ‘I’ve managed 381838492 Ligue 2’ clubs managers.

Look how fast they get it forward compared to us . they don’t give a shit about possesion, they just want to score.

If DR Congo can somehow get the next goal here then it’s done

Yes I’m exceptionally unwell and will log off

Luke Thomas?

Come on Congo

Almost like sobriety is a good thing

So funny that a country as large as DR Congo get battered by tiny Rwanda every day of the week. Grow a backbone you weaklings.

Their team is way better than i realised

Would losing to the democratic republic of Congo be worse than Iceland in 2016?

I think we’ll squeeze through but they drew v Portugal, should’ve gotten something v Colombia and battered Uzbekistan. They can definitely trouble us and have some very good players, they’re definitely better than Ghana. A convincing win will help.

Emma Hayes is evidently a great coach and I’m sure would be a success in the right environment (not ours). As for Whelan, she was part of the success and infrastructure Pearson built, maybe she’ll regret no quitting earlier but ultimately she was never the issue. I guess captain driving the titanic comes to mind.

This will age like milk but the refereeing at this tournament has been mainly excellent so far. It’s consistent, VAR use has mainly been good, I can only recall one bad decision (Ecuador not getting a penalty for being kicked in the head).

People (including myself) are going very all or nothing with the Mexico thing. It’s either: they’re unbeatable at the Azteca we might as well give up now, or they’ve got no world class players and their record is only good because they play St. Lucia there. Truth is probably in the middle though gotta say they look like a motivated country. Wish the whole tournament was there.

All it needs is one team to successfully park the bus. Obviously Paraguay won’t be good enough to do that, but Morocco easily could. Then a Spain/Portugal in the semi definitely could take them all the way, then it’s a true lottery. They look by far the most convincing team but it’s such a long tournament that you really can’t call it yet.

Such is this tournament, I didn’t realise DR Congo held Portugal, should’ve beaten Colombia then obviously hammered Uzbekistan. Got some tricky players on paper. Can’t wait to get knocked out by Wan-Bissaka

8 goals scored. Zero conceded for Mexico now after 4 games. They obviously have some limitations but they’ve seen off 4 competent teams without much bother, big test if we get past DR Congo today.

When it comes to games like that, they’re trying to keep it level, steal a lucky goal or take it to penalties, but obviously France are too good for Sweden.

This has been superb, Mbappe is an animal at world cups, he’s gonna end his career as the leading World Cup goal scorer by quite some distance.

They could as they have a much easier route to the final so could be in better shape. If they played today France would win

Pissing it here, 3rd gear and steam rolling a semi decent European side.
