https://www.mylondon.news/news/tv/itv-viewers-bewildered-world-cup-25671801 Apparently Sam Matterface has caused an upset during his commentary. Pretty sure he wasn't commenting like. Unless he's turned into Guy Mowbray.
'Bringing the African vibes' is what the Senegal fans did, and it was lovely to see . . . . what stupid ****ing people, looking for something to whinge about instead of enjoying it
Samuel Eto'o briefly out of retirement to knee a cameraman in the face. Still got that technique. Lovely.

If any offence was caused, at least aim it at the person that said it. The whole article is a mine field, but I felt the need to mention it wasn't actually Sam Matterface on come.
It wasn't Mowbray. It was on ITV and Mowbray is BBC. In pretty sure it was Matterface and Dixon. It doesn't matter really as it's a stupid thing to get annoyed about. When Infantino was have a go at "Europe" over colonialism, Poland and Switzerland weren't having a go for being included in a generic statement. That was a negative statement so they'd have far more right to get annoyed. The African comment on the other hand was just a compliment that perhaps wasn't worded perfectly.
I stand corrected mate. Wouldn't blame commentators if they stuck strictly to football and didn't mention the crowd, nice and robotic, sterile etc. I'm pretty sure "Samba" will have been mentioned during a Brazil game. Fine for England fans to be hoyed out of games for dressing like St George.
That Moroccan who orchestrates the whistling whenever the opposition have the ball, can someone have him flogged for gbh on our hearing senses..
Think we might get Amrabat on a free in January to boss our midfield. He certainly looks like a three Weetabix sort of bloke.
Perhaps those offended will forgive me then for refusing to recognise and acknowledge the vibe ( which I just interpret as a way of enthusiastically dancing and singing as a crowd) part of the culture when it's performed in UK and classed as the enrichment of British society.
