Crazy. Sat here just laughing at how mad that actually is. How can you not love football and the World Cup?
And all.with home-based players! Possible only England are the only other side with a home-based squad.
On the topic of players, I saw a list last week, which had 137 players at the World Cup who are playing for countries that they weren’t born in. I don’t know if that is abnormally high or if it has now become the norm but there are 37 players who were born in France playing for other teams, including our own ABK.
Glad a penalty wasn't awarded there. Would have been extremely harsh. Good to see the ref stick with his original decision.
