Hate It If We Played It - Qatar World Cup 2022

yeah they had softish runs in both those tournaments, Southgate's unmitigated cowardice will not win a trophy

which is lol, obv

jackson irvine's hair/moustache combo has gotten him out of about 3 bookings in the one and a bit games so far lol

I've just noticed he played for Celtic for three years - made one appearance. Also another one who played for Scotland at under-19 level.

I know not all Eng support is like this but please lose to Senegal or Ecuador in the Round of 16.

FT: England 0-0 USA.

Watch the moment fans in London started throwing their drinks in frustration at the result.#WorldCup | #ENGUSA | #WorldCup2022 pic.twitter.com/4gbNmwx4ZS

Draws were kind to Eng as well in those tournaments.

And this one.

Went “Mark Viduka? I haven’t heard that name in years,” and ended up on his Wikipedia page, where I learned that he runs a coffee shop in Zagreb now, and that he and Luka Modrič are cousins.

always scored against Charlton, had one hell of a strike on him

good fighting win for the Socceroos

(despite the lack of Cumdog)

As much for my own benefit as anyone's...

Against the fart of play

Lol they're really checking this for a pen?

That was a complete dive

What a joke. Pen

Complete fucking dive

HAHAHAHAHAHAH

Ten minutes stoppage in first half

Polish keeper knows that was no penalty

I hate watching Poland, so stodgy and predictable.

This is unbelievable…

Again have to agree with this, though I quite like JK.

If Poland win what a pressure-cooker ARGMEX should be. So stoked for that.

This is also a better game now.

Entertaining game this

Lewandowski scores at last!

LOLdi Arabia

Oh dear..

The only way Robert could score with his mediocre teammates leaving him cold

Lol @ Lewandowski crying on the floor after scoring that

Wonder if the defender will still get his Rolls after that..

Lol muffed that one

0-0 huh..

Nice

Not so good: 1-1

Kylian killin' em

Credit to FRA. DEN looked dangerous at moments, it could have gone the other way. But unless DEN can beat AUS they are going home.

AUS-DEN will come down to which side can show the greater sense, or perhaps even sensibility

Argentina not really impressing so far, wouldn't be surprised if Mexico score.

Fingers crossed, it would be hilarious if the pre-tournament favourites went out.

If Arg draw and beat Poland they meet France.

France aren't as good as 2018 to me. It will probably be good enough to beat Argentina. Unless they improve.

If they improve now surely they beat Mex.

Argentina have scrapped their way into the game but look well short of form still

I was under the impression Brazil and France were the favourites

Argentina are shockingly poor though

Couple of really nasty tackles in the first half, wonder if Roy Keane has any funny comments to make about those.

A lot better and now a goal!

wowow

Mexico totally toothless tbh.

Yeah he's still got it (sometimes)

Just parked my car. What’d I miss?

👍

Fantastic goal

Awesome sauce, boss!

Guess I must have parked in my lucky spot.
