Hate It If We Played It - Qatar World Cup 2022

“Trying to screen the match but my signal’s gone afoul!”

funnily enough, my statement from earlier seems truer of Morocco than Belgium

LOL Belgium fall for the same trick and Morocco are ahead!

Lol fantastic

The death-star of goalkeeping has a weakness!

“It’s all going pear-shaped for Belgium!”

Yessss! Even though Thierry is there, I’ve never liked this Belgium “golden generation”. Happy to see them potentially get beaten

(Idk if they are still seen as a golden generation but that’s mostly cos Hazard isn’t a star anymore)

Same trick? Did something like it happen earlier as well?

First fk goal of the tournament too

Woohoo! Brilliant!

Awesome!

always happy for Saiss

and for Europe getting beat

Sweet sweet strike

Useless Belgium fuck off

Lovely

I think Belgium were actually more successful in the Ceulemans/Gerets etc era despite the enormous quantities of smoke blown up the arses of their recent teams.

“It is a Moroccan masterpiece, at Belgium’s expense!”

I miss all the best matches. 8 am here is too early meh

If we get through the second week with only Qatar (and I suppose Wales) eliminated that's great.

BEL were 4th in the 1986 WC, 3rd in the 2018 WC.

Technically, therefore, I think the recent team is more successful.

But they have underachieved at times, eg being knocked out much too easily in 2014. And they sadly appear to have reached the end of the road now.

Fuck Hazard

chris sutton has predicted a 1-0 win for canada here. it will definitely not be that

wow

it may be that

Get in!

89 minutes for it to stop being that! Been a day of great calls by me

Loved seeing a foul throw earlier. Average Sunday league left backs of the world unite.

BEL were 4th in the 1986 WC, 3rd in the 2018 WC.

They were also beaten finalists in the 1980 European Championships, a competition the current team of golden boys have done fuck all in.

That’s been coming

Will always be bemused that Belgium gave this group of players to Roberto Martinez for the whole of their international careers xp

They are very good at winning friendlies and qualifying matches

Ooh, assist by a Celtic player.

A rare poppin' first half

Excellent half. Well done Canada for their goal.

I was wondering why the Canadian goalkeeper keeps getting booed and, inevitably, it's because he's Serbian.

Croatia too good tbh.

😍😍😍

Absolutely delightful

lol at rashford saying the quality of training pre southgate wasn't very high. that would be the euros when roy was in charge and gnev was a coach.

Well, now we know who's got Portsmouth Bubblejet killfiled

so bad it was posted twice

Junior Hoilett is still knocking about?

Guess he's...not so junior anymore 😎

Only 32! Could play in the next World Cup.

What's Portsmouth Bubblejet?

That post is extremely obscure.

Tom D: must admit 1980 before my time in soccer - a good call then, perhaps indeed making that team slightly more successful.

Have to agree with poster Crisp: I don't dislike Martinez and think it's nice to be nice to such people, but he hasn't exactly proven great quality at the highest level. You would think that all kinds of other people could have done as well or better with this BEL squad.

Klinsmann embarrassing himself again now

ooh Poch In I see
