After the first three matches, I was worried that this would be another World Cup full of cagey low-scoring affairs and the occasional thrashing.

I'm not as worried anymore.

More a case I guess of sides being limited in ability, and thus attacking intent and quality.

Can't wait until it expands to 48 teams, and we get even lower level teams qualifying.
 
Argentina keeps waiting for Iceland to make errors and let them in...they might need to kick it up a couple notches to force them to make those errors.

I've seen some of every game so far and I've enjoyed it tbh.
 
I didn’t read it that way. The ball was touched onto his foot which meant his touch was a heavy one, so the keeper would have got there first.
the way i saw it his touch was a bit heavy because he was running at full pace but as he was running at full pace he was still running faster than the ball when he went down and would have caught up with it just before the keeper, at least where the keeper ended up catching it.
