Just watched Columbia Vs Japan.
Near the end of the match, the Japanese players started to perform martial arts. Apparently, there are 4 minutes Ninjary time.

Krychowiak there, showing every ounce of the skill and talent that helped carry Albion to the lofty heights of 20th in the Premier League.

Can`t agree there. Referee made a mistake allowing a player back on the pitch in a very attacking position. Greg didn`t know he was there, neither did the centre back. Also took a very good goal. DD

Poland were really poor and I think the coach made the mistake of trying to play Lewandowski and Milik together when they’d have been better off putting Linetty alongside Krychowiak which would have allowed Zielinski to play further forward behind Lewandowski. Senegal on the other hand played with energy and a purpose but still lacked quality in the final third.
It should be a really good group with 4 good teams all battling to get though. I still think Colombia will finish top with the other three battling for second.

Is there ANYONE out there who isn't solidly behind Egypt on this one??

I’m 100% behind them and not just because of Hegazi. I like the way they play with a mix of possession and direct play and I particularly like Trezeguet on the left wing. I said the other day about us playing in a similar vane to Mexico and Trezeguet would be a good player for the left side. I really like his style with his direct pace and running. It’s a shame for us that Kasimpasa are signing him on a permanent deal next month.

what an OG that was
RE: World Cup 2018 - WBA-Josh - 19-06-2018
It all started from the goalkeeper’s decision to punch instead of catching. Punching was actually the harder thing to do.
I really despise how goalkeeping has become. When I was younger and playing I was taught to always catch and if it isn’t possible then parry or punch the ball away from danger. Nowadays (I now sound like an old man) it is seemingly the opposite and that is detrimental to the standard of goalkeeping.
