In for a penny, in for a whole pound of Brylcreem ... why not go for the Hairfecta ... Gerrimin both!

Shinjitsu time !!!!

That's them on the right.

HARRYS! Justice prevails

That was a more one-sided half than anything Russia produced against the Saudis or even Belgium v Panama. I think you'll be fine. But was that five, or SIX sitters fluffed? I literally lost count.

I’ve seen Panama live and on TV in the past year, and there were no surprises. I expect them to play a normal Concacrap game. A huge impaction in front of Panama’s goal, and some pause given to Belgian attackers who would like to keep their shins and ankles attached for the rest of the tournament. If the ref calls half of the fouls, this should be a romp.

Y'all better hope your Spurs contingent show up a lot more strongly than Son (the only Spurs player I do really like) has in this early match.

The standard is clear and obvious error. Which means the VAR feels the call should be overturned. However the process leaves the decision with the referee so we get a possibly game-changing interruption of play. Given the multiple angles and repeated viewings available to the VAR, and the fact that Sweden deserved the pen, I'd say it was the best outcome in this case. But wonder if the process will eventually change to move the decision to the VAR.

They are our football rivals and usually our betters. So not easy to get behind them ... until you see a game like that (and factor in Trump's wall). Changing my avatar for as long as they stay in. ¡ Vamos México ! https://www.theplayerstribune.com/en-us/articles/andres-guardado-vamos-mexico

Great job Mexico! It's a minor miracle Osorio is still in that job but look at how well he set them up for today. Maybe now he will get a little respect.

Mexicoooooooooolll !!

Watching this Peru side is putting a thirst on me.
