World Cup 2018

Jerome Boateng playing for Germany against Mexico has made the first foul throw of the 2018 World Cup!

Earlier Aleksandar Kolarov scored for Serbia against Costa Rica with a direct free kick, the 3rd such goal in the tournament. This means goals from direct free kicks is already level with the whole of the World Cup finals in 2014.

Germany are pushing a lot of players forward and are being exposed by Mexico on the counter attack, and with better decision making could be 3 or 4-0 up

Had Mexico took those two chances in the 2nd half Germany would have had absolutely no way back
Mexico showed that with a bit of pace you can catch Germany out with a counter attack or two

If you mean Murray, then one of the teams that didn't qualify, as he's Scottish??

Today's The day lads

England officially start their World Cup campaign V Tunisia we last met in 1998 and won 2 - 0. Will we win again or will we labour to a draw that will leave us having to play catch up?


Let's have your thoughts..

Harry Kane had claimed he's up for matching Christiano Ronaldo's hat-trick.....!? But that's about as likely as Messi scoring from the penalty spot.... lol.

Is it just me, or are Gareth & Harry playing a game of 'best beard wearer' at the moment too..?

my thoughts having watched England Manager:Impossible Job is that if they don‘t win easily the team and Southgate will be critised heavily by the media. I will go for 3-0 England
