Group C: Argentina, Saudi Arabia, Mexico, Poland

[StanSP]

Think Poland have managed the game quite well since taking the lead. 

[Raj]

Saudis just missing that bit of quality at the top end, but brilliant to watch and passing around.

This'll be a good group to watch depending  on today's game later on.

Lewandowski first ever world cup goal 

 

Deserves it. Great to see what it means to him as well. The amount of goals he's scored and this is still the pinnacle. 

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

If they go out next game at least Hervé Renard can go back to his other job which is clearly penning erotic fiction

Yeah I'm happy for him. Tearful afterwards understandably.

Sort of bloke you’d see in Bruges sat in the corner of a bar slowly drinking a Trappist beer for a couple hours on a Sunday afternoon. Collecting his thoughts for his next erotic novel

Somehow Poland in a good position all things considered

And makes the group interesting regardless of the result later this evening. Will definitely go down to the final day whatever result happens. 

[StanSP]

This is a great game for a Saturday night. 

 

Hopefully. 

[PhillippaT]

Might get a bit spicy, this one...

[Iran]

Argentina looks very poor.

If I was a betting man I'd say first red card in this one, especially  if Argies are losing 

[The_77]

This is what it’s all about. 

[Tuna]

Argentina's playacting is embarrassing.

After watching Argentina keep getting the benefit of flopping, it appeared if they decided “why not”

[The_77]

Doesn’t get any better than Andres Cantor on the mic for a for the Telemundo broadcast of this game in the States (even if he confuses the players from time to time). 
 

It’s a beautiful thing.

Not sure. Players on that side of the world do generally like to milk any kind of contact.

Dixon is dangerously close to Murphy/Lawro levels of dreadful comms.

ITV coverage really is shocking. Make the exception for Ally McCoist alone 

[Guest nathan.]

Argentina look terrible.

 

I think they will go tonight.
