nice to see former Tiger, Seb Larrsson in the dugout, he is now assistant coach for Sweden.

 

[Ric Glasgow]

They have but the Swedes have changed from a 3 to a 4 at the back during the 'advert' break and are much more in the game now

Could be an interesting game if they can grab a goal.

 

[Blaknamberblood]

Verbruggen is such a good keeper, just doesn't seem to flap, and very solid in there. The Dutch and Brighton defences must have so much confidence in him.

 

[Febbos]

Keep at 'em and the goal should come

 

[pcworks]

The Swedes are really up against it now, time to break out the pickled herring.

 

[bradymk2]

Sweden are not very good are they

 

[pcworks]

And that is good night Sweden - null points from the Dutch jury.

 

[Ric Glasgow]

Sweden are not very good are they

Holland are pretty lethal.

 

[AlRawdah]

Sweden are not very good are they

I think they’ve been decent. Dutch have scored four from eight chances, they’ve been remarkable.

I can also see why sweden only got 2 points in their world cup qual group

 

[Blaknamberblood]

Dutch looked impressive tonight, got pace and quality all over the pitch, could be a dark horse for the cup tbh.

 

[Noggin The Nog]

Gordon Bennett, Shearer was nauseating tonight...? Gave me earache from start to finish. It must be the sun beating down on his cranium.

Interesting fact....First time in the World Cup history that one team has won their first game by 4, but lost the second by 4...Allegedly!

Re: the Dutch. Hasn't some geezer who has predicted the last four world cup winners, correctly, predicted that Holland will win the 2026 World Cup? Or is it just telephone tripe?

 

[Edelman]

Good to see Lineker back on the telly .
A lot better to listen to than most of the others .

I kinda feel like we flatter most teams with a decent attack, but yeah, they were lethal.
They could do the same thing over and over (first 3 goals are basically copy paste)

DId they fill all of Stadion? @Stockholm Tiger
Que was mental at the on in Gothenburg, only a section given (+the 3000 outside in the plaza), but good day out (kinda, ignore the result for a moment)

Well the Dutch looked very good, Sunderlands CF Brobbey looks a handful.

 

[originallambrettaman]

Japan have been very good, but this Tunisia team are absolutely terrible.

For those not watching, it’s 4-0.

 

[Help!]

Well the Dutch looked very good, Sunderlands CF Brobbey looks a handful.

Yeah, quite old school - he just seemed to get on the end of everything.

It also meant that me and my eldest spent a chunk of the game just saying “Brobbey brobbey brobbey” to each other in that stupid voice to the frustration of my wife. Which was probably a better Father’s Day present than anything I’ll get today to be fair!

 

[John Ex Aberdeen now E.R.]

Japan look very good, typical Japanese very well organised. Tunisia awful, only Hannibal looked decent.

 

[Ernie Shackleton]

To be fair, your always gonna look fairly decent when you're sat astride an elephant.
