C'est créme de la strewth!  

1-0 Australia. Mon dieu 

Everyone on the Falkland Islands watching Argentina humiliate themselves on the world stage...

For me the Ref deserves one of these, Just needs to get a bowl big enough ?

Agree. Strong decision. On balance probably  a pen but not a clear and obvious error 

speechless 
they put their lives at risk not singing the anthem. Brave men 

it certainly seems all a bit excessive...8 minutes added time, but ends up playing another 5 minutes on top of that
Fair play to Saudi Arabia. I'm sure if you'd asked beforehand the players would have given their right hand for a result as good as that

Well, that aged well.

I'm not so sure. I've heard the Humboldt penguins of Chile are decent. ? 

I’m thinking the USA’s physicality and fitness (which Warne so admires) might upset a top 10 side who play that possession based game.

Well they’re playing only because their government has forced them to. If they don’t their kids or parents  might disappear. Their team mates who are overtly political are on the bench and won’t be used. And we’ve got Ian Wright et al (including on here) wondering why Iran are ‘disappointing’.

Iran are dreadful - how did they qualify?

Agreed..to be thinking of a promise he made to a young fan under the circumstances of scoring your first World Cup goal shows the class of the man.  That young lad will remember what Grealish did for the rest of his life 

Some good goals from England, and 1 from Iran tbf
But my were Iran dreadful. Their hearts didn't look in it. Not singing their anthem, booed and whistled by their own crowd...... 
.....lets see if we can bring in a couple of their players. They'll feel right at home.... ?

Gamed the system and hardly ever beat a top side. Snatched a 1-0 win at home to Uraguay in September. The previous result against a 'top' side was a 1-1 draw woth Korea in 2021 and then again in 2019.
Tbf, at the last World Cup in 2018, they drew 1-1 woth Portugal and narrowly lost to Spain 1-0 (and beat Morocco 1-0)

It so happens that the new England shirts are a mix of Nylon and Velcro, The Iranian player has very hairy arms and couldn't get away from the shirt

If it was about sheep love, it could have been either. 

What they can’t do from central London is spend hours before and after every match learning from all the world’s media pundits what is the scoop on this, that and the other. 
Which is what they do 

His girlfriend, or should I say ex girlfriend has posted a number of images making allegations of domestic violence.
There is also a disturbing voice recording as well demanding sex.
If proven to be true, his career is over before it's even begun.
Man Utd have released a statement.
