2022 World Cup Qatar

10 mins to half time

England 4 San Marino 0

I would say after this game how many in the press will either question or point out the score doesn't reflect how good thr performance was as it was against one of the weakest teams in the world.

When Southgate brought on Bellingham in the 2nd half, it was a 'Who the hell is Jude Bellingham' moment

Apparently he's a 17 year old playing for Borussia Dortmund. New to me.

And think Southgate will be more cautious with his next selection.

He’s a good young player. Joined Birmingham when he was 8 & has played for the England age group teams. Seen him quite a bit in the Bundesliga.

Easiest payday that Nick Pope has had. The first time that I saw him was in the last minute. And that's when he decided to walk up to halfway when England had a corner.

I see that Poland's star striker is ruled out of the England match.
Robert Lewandowski has a knee injury.

Even without him, I stull think Polands has enough players to score goals.

The tite reported that it has seen papers submitted to High Court in London that Qatar has been operating a money laundering scheme to fund jihadists in Syria and many Qateri government officials are involved.

Now actually wonder if FIFA money may have been misused and if FiIFA itself has been conned into awarding 2022 to Qatar

What a goal by Harry Kane against the Polish rugby team.

Southgate blew it at the end of the Poland match.

England had a tiring team and failed to bring on just a substitute.
