Great timing for me to switch on.

You jump into another player like that anywhere else on the pitch without heading the ball, it's a foul ... simples.

Except in this World Cup they’re allowing plenty go. African keepers are almost always ****.

Good news about the goal though.

Ivory Coast manager is definitely winning a manager royal rumble

 

[Solid Air]

been impressed with the reffing so far with people allowed to make physical tackles , keeping the game flowing and little of the grappling we have grown accustomed to .
even VAR has been really quick and nearly always not interfering

Germany taking all their dangerous players off...

The Iranian and the Turk combine to equalise for the Germans

1-1

Agreed - they deserved to get something out if the game - thought they were great - unfortunately looks like the right back has done his hammy...

Eloy Room has equalled the most saves in a match in a World Cup since records began but holds the record outright for saves with a clean sheet.

But today’s quiz is which ex-Prem goalkeeper did he match for the save record?

That ****ing goal though; touch, pivot, half volley, boom! Won’t see many better finishes than that this WC imo.
