England wins 2-1. Sets up an exciting last 16
match against Mexico in the Azteca.

Great goal that second one by Kane
Kane’s movement off the ball is brilliant

Fuck me, what a finish.
Was asking my Geordie buddy wtf Gordon adds.
Two assists later.
That Belgium v Senegal game was quite a ride. Was only paying a bit of attention (working) and Senegal were dominant, built a 2-0 lead and appeared to be coasting to victory (and should have had a bigger lead). Decided to watch the last 10 minutes but not much was going on. The Lukaku pops up with a goal and then Tielemans with an unlikely header brings it level and we have extra time. Again not a whole lot going on with a couple of minutes left in extra time, a Belgian cross, a collision at the near post and the ball ends up with Lukebakio who hits the bar when it looked easier to score. Then VAR review, ref sent to the screen and a penalty awarded for a very marginal foul on Tielemans who buries the spot kick. All of this took place after Doku and de Bruyne were withdrawn.

I thought the foul was technically correct.
Just watched Belgium v Senegal
Great match
Senegal very unlucky not to have been 4 up
Fair play to Belgium though
Definite penalty for me

was following the score online, one minute its 2-0 to Senegal at the 84th minute.
i close the browser to do some work, go back to check a few mins later and its 2-2!
Fucken wild really, gutted for Senegal. The keeper made a meal of that 2nd goal from Belgium
Schlager has been good, the only thing stopping Austria from being 4-0 down instead of just 1-0. Spain players looking alot quicker than their opposition, but maybe won't be able to maintain the pace in the 2nd half.
I remember watching Spain play England at Wembley about 10 years ago. The gap in terms of technical ability was clearly evident. They are magicians with the ball
Portugal v Croatia
What a match
Absolute Pandora’s Box of a penalty mind
From here on in every corner should see a penalty
It’s like a Royal Rumble in the box
England game brought forward "because of heat". I guess we know who FIFA is backing this year...
