So, after a third Argie goal, back to England, as I can't get excited about this match now... what happened against France makes me just angry and disappointed about the 2020 final v Italy. THAT was our chance, despite the England team, squad, manager, tactics, etc, being better in 2022, we had such an easy run to the final in the Euro's, against an aging Italy team, and even took the lead. THAT is why I think Southgate has to go. He messed up the best chance this squad will ever get. France will be stronger in 2024...

quite enjoy the ol' pen shootout when it's not my team involved!!!

Come on Holland (and the rest of the Netherlands) - do a goal!

BBC saying this is a huge shock!!!
A team who has now reached the last 3 semi finals beat a team who has reached one semi in 20 years (how did that go for them)
So how is that a real shock
you're expecting honest, reasoned commentary from BBC pundits???
why don't they call out Brazil for their diving and play acting

That makes no sense tho,unless you think the top players run the country’s teams and no point in managers,Argentina better hope they don’t go to penalties because I would have Messi 11th taker behind the keeper
it may make no sense to you or me, but it wouldn't surprise me if Neymar wanted the glory of scoring the winning penalty so going last. he certainly wouldn't be the first to do so... Salah done the same for Egypt

Why do teams leave their best penalty takers to last,there must be a reason.I would have my best 2 or 3 at the start to give the rest confidence(if they score of course)then you will put pressure on the other side rather than your own takers

I hope the commentators and pundits have got their supplies of Kleenex on sale or return.

really enjoyed that, have such love for Croatia as a country. no more Wales and Brazil love-ins from the pundits!!! first decent team they faced and they were found out. Just shows Portugal, England, etc, won't really know how good they are until they play top opposition. interesting 3 games ahead now...
Neymar - FFS, take the first or second pen!!
-
obvious caveats but good lord... LOVING this world cup

I had watched this game intently for almost 110 minutes. then opened a huge bag of crisps to accompany my wine. proceeded to spill crisps over me, the sofa, the floor, disaster. whilst trying to clear it up and salvage my snacks, Brazil scored. missed it completely. FFS. **** my life, this is 2022 in 2 minutes haha

Agreed. As long as he keeps the cards in his pocket they will continue with their antics. Such a shame when they have so much talent. Tarnishes it for me TBH
I've seen it at several games, they spot it and ignore it. Must be a directive or FIFA decision as not seen a single instance when somebody is booked for it, and seen LOTS of games where ref's have spotted it and waved play on...
-
getting fed up of the S American diving and play acting now. am 100% Croatia now!! still not a single shot on target though, pens or nothing if they're getting through!!!
-
also, did I miss the FIFA directive that encourages play acting and diving, and if the ref spots it, you are no longer at risk of a booking? terrible dive then, ref did well to spot it and wave play on, but why no booking? making me shout at the telly!!!
-
i underestimated Croatia, more fool me, but their keeper is playing a blinder too!
-
I fancy Netherlands to edge past Argentina in a high scoring classic, but think Brazil will have too much for Croatia. Not fussed who gets through today, just looking forward to, hopefully, two good games. Hoping Croatia can at least give Brazil a game!!
Just need to try and get my work for the week done by 3!!

6 genuine contenders, one surprise package (Morocco) and one making up he numbers (Croatia)... shaping up to be a fantastic end to this WC
