Ladies lost 1-0, conceded in 88th minute. Bugger.

Can’t abide pundits deciding that offside doesn’t matter ……

 

they should be explaining to people why it’s offside- not dismissing it as being irrelevant ….

Agreed. Always think of the Chilwell offside. Thank goodness for that. Off is off that is that

[RowlattsFox]

That Qatar chance looked clearly offside anyway. 

 

VAR has created that offside because noone would've spotted it otherwise. However technically it's correct. 

[Fox92]

Surely Qatar will not win a single game.

[Jonezy]

Well. It was offside then. Would never have been spotted without VAR.

 

Qatar looks poor. Expected more since they are supposed to be one of the better asian teams.

[Mike Oxlong]

QVC is better than watching Qatar 

[Mike Oxlong]

Dani el Waud just stopped the ball from going in the net 

[Nalis]

How are Qatar 50th in the world? Is the whole playing the ranking system thing Poland and Wales did a few years ago?

Yes. Rather like Hawkeye showing a very close out call in Tennis.

[Livid]

There seems to be a few empty seats.

some of these Qatar blokes think they are the law, that's why I would never go there.

[Koke]

All the people saying they won't watch are probably watching. Qatar or not, its still a World Cup and I won't miss it.

That is funny but ironic that its the latin american middle classes who can only afford to go to world cups so he cant really spout the money card.

[Nalis]

Dion Dublin is a great guy but he's crap in terms of insightful co commentary.

[Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot]

Need 1 more goal to land the bet builder valencia to score, Ecuador to win and over 2 goals that was boosted on 365.looks to be fizzling out a bit, unfortunately. 

[weller54]

[RowlattsFox]

Probably predictable given how easy it was for Ecuador in the first. This second half has been shite.

I mean this would be funny if you didn't post this when Ecuador are 2-0 up

Anyone else noticed that Qatar have Akram Afif?

 

If you spell his surname backwards, it says FIFA.

 

What more proof do you need that the tournament is corrupt?

[Vacamion]

 

It's pretty rare that you hear a ref's whistle being blown quite as frequently.

 

Awful game.

Refs been very whistle happy today - unusual as most continental European refs let the game flow even more than in the Prem.

[RowlattsFox]

That was nearly Vardy-esque.

Here’s hoping, would be nice if every game was a humiliating defeat.
