    I was determined not to watch but it's football ...

    ... just like when Moyes was at Sunderland you know you shouldn't watch but it's not that easy <laugh>

    Good start from Tunisia but I believe Denmark will gradually take control.

    Flights from Tunisia to Qatar must be cheap as chips. There's about 50,000 fans cheering them on.

    I heard he's such an expert that they'll pay up if he just tells them after the game what he would have bet.

    They’ve got Hannibal lecter selling the pies
    They’ve got Peter sutcliffe washing the kits
    They’ve got Joseph fritzel watching the kids
    They’ve got the vilest regime in the world

    Is that the first time a ref has gone to view the screen and not given the decision recommended by VAR?

    How wasn't it a corner for Denmark given that it was a corner when he stopped play?

    Utterly bizarre.

    I think he gives a foul on a Tunisian player just prior to the handball offence which he was looking at. Instead of penalty gives free kick to Tunisia.

    A good world cup day so far. A good result for the middle east and Africa in footballing terms. The Saudi Arabia result in particular might have a big impact on the growth of the game in the region. Their second goal was tremendous. I enjoyed what I saw of Tunisia too.

    As I have had many doubters on my last (correct) prediction. Just to confirm, Mexico will beat Poland 2-1. You’re welcome. Feel free to quote this later.

    Aye, it looks that way. He can't do that according to the rules though. VAR was for pen or no pen. You can't use VAR to reverse other decisions and give a free kick.
