Spain and Portugal had to play one another, which must've helped them to wake up.
Too many of the major countries are doing *checks notes* though I am enjoying all I've seen because its the world cup after all.

Someone said it's already the longest we've gone since '86 without a red card yet. Usually had at least one 0-0 by now too.

P sure this won't be 0-0 by the looks of it

i think VAR should give yellows for schwalbes too.

Strong possibility this group could be decided by goal difference so I can see Belgium being relentless.

“They scored 43 goals in qualifying - against better opposition than Panama”
They scored eight in one game against Estonia and fifteen across two legs vs Gibraltar ffs.

Mertens goal was a real beaut though.
England XI is all pace and width and not much centre. I suppose it's time to find out whether playing Walker in a three is inspired or idiocy, although the lack of Dier suggests Southgate doesn't think much of Tunisia. This feels like the fastest England squad in a very long time though.
