The VAR is a waste of f'ucking time if it's the refs call to use it or not Cool

I've not seen such blatant bias and cheating from officials since Wednesday last played Cool

even the wife was calling him a nasty person Whistle

It was a dominant performance in terms of possession and the fact the game was played in their half, wouldn't say it was exceptional in any way!! We have to do better at breaking teams down and we have to use the pace we have far better!!

Southgates a feckin tit as is lineker,but i digress.

England looked ok until they conceded then they offered very little. To get marginally ahead of a team as poor as Tunisia only in injury time is pish-poor,calling it exceptional is embarrassing.

Nobody won a

Shame I didn't say nearest for the subs Doh

I thought Trippier had a very good game, would definitely keep him in the team. Pickford is the best keeper we have, so I would leave him in. Got to play Rashford against Panama but maybe just go one up top against Belgium and add another midfielder in.

Always preferred Ollie to his brother Imre.

How are Morocco not at least level against Portugal!! Been the better side for most of the first half and Portugal proving yet again how much of a one man team they really are!!!

Because Portugal are 'durable' SCO - they are masters at 'soaking up pressure' and trying to defend a lead! That one-handed Patricio save was outstanding - another top man in their defensive line up who will not easily concede a goal. Morocco clearly don't have a natural pen box striker either. I reckon if Portugal lost a goal, they would suddenly 'up their game' - it's the way they play.

https://www.bbc.com/sport/live/football/43973866 cant beat the BBC Doh

Portugal have won the game 0-0 Whistle

The bbc coverage of this World Cup has been awful Imre - stale with no great characters covering the matches! What d'ya make of that female commentator covering this game?
Anyway, well done Morocco - thought they played very well but deficient in quality striking! Ronaldo delivers for Portugal again!!
