Well done England, man down for almost half the match

Just woke up to see the result of the Mexico v England game.

Didn't think England would pull it off but happy they did

Agree the England win was an unexpected result.

Now to see if Quansah can get a delay to his one match ban until after the World Cup. If FIFA can do it for Balugan, why not Quansah? Asking for a friend…

I suppose the PM has other things to sort out at the minute, rather than call Infantino !

Because he's not an American…

There is a reason why I don't really watch this WC. Infantino should go. Unfortunately it looks like he will be re-elected. Which means I will not watch the next WC either.

We now need to lock this thread as FIFA and the entire World Cup has become political.

I'll leave it up unless the rest of the team decides to close it. But I won't be participating as I cannot promise to follow our own rules if I do.

Sorry for nudging the thread into the political arena. Let's leave the Balogan issue alone and stick to discussing the games themselves.

I've consigned myself to the naughty corner.

My post above was sarcastic, something not easily conveyed in writing. I'm sure we can continue the thread and ignore the behind the scenes garbage.

As a proud Englishman i greatly enjoyed this morning's result.

Now this evening I would like Spain to beat Portugal, just so I don't have to see that primadonna Ronaldo.

 

[Lucky13]

Just give France the win already!

I second that, along with Bruno Fernandez being hard to like !

Bye Bye Portugal.

0954 hrs, Amnat Charoen. I was just texting a friend in NY. Has the U.S. just been eliminated from the World Cup?

 

[fubar57]

Yes 4-1

Today's headline:

FIFA suspends the loss of US team advancing them to the Quarterfinals. Sources say a call was made from the White House saying it was revoking the Visas of the Belgian team.

 

[Lucky13]

Come on and !
Aye, I got those two teams at work!

 

[fubar57]

Egypt, 1-0 over Argentina at the moment. Argentina has more control so time will tell

 

[fubar57]

Full time, 2-2

 

[Checkertail20]

USA fell flat on their face.
