So far 4 of 16 games have ended goalless when in the previous tournament there was only 1 goalless game. Probably highlighting we need Kane to be fit and play as much as possible.
They said on talkshite earlier the record for nil nil draws, for the whole tournament, is 7, and has happened on 3 occasions.
They reckoned that to be on 4 already was due to squads only being together for a week, a consequence of a mid season tournament.
 
FIFA told officials to let fans take rainbow flags and clothes into stadiums from now on. Pressure mounting?

Its brings more attention to ban it which is what I think they've realised. It's not about them succumbing to pressure in my opinion, more about them finding the easiest way to take a negative story out of the news.

Crusader outfits are banned and people liable to arrest ...

Getting a bit fed up of turning the TV or raido during a world cup, getting preached at about politics then a bit football gets a mention. Starting to question if some of these players injuries on the eve of the world cup are real, or an excuse not to go to avoid all the stuff that comes with it.
