Can't stad this shit. For me, any player that goes down injured needing treatment in the last 10 minutes just shouldn't be allowed back on(unless injury is visible obviously). I'd be amazed if "injured" players in the last 10 minutes didn't drop by about 99%

I've often thought that the church is missing an opportunity to hand out saint hoods to at least 50 doctors/physios every year what with their ability to perform medical miracles in the last ten matches of association football matches.

If I ever suffer catastrophic heart failure I want it to be behind the benches of a premier league match. I'd be able to go back to my seat after a little massage and some magic spray.

That was the best match of the tournament so far.

It had everything but a red card, and the way the yellows were being handed out, I thought it was only a matter of time before we saw one. I'm pleased I was wrong on that score.

I hope Algeria get something against Russia and qualify.

Another quality game, from 2 very unfancied sides, I bet most looked at this and watched something else, their loss.

I honestly stopped watching at half time, thought the second half could just be a bit of a training match.

fantastic win for Algeria but South Korea were shamefully shite.

????Didn't see it that way at all

Some great football by both teams. Sustained quick two touch football.

Algeria have long produced good technical footballers.

Ronaldo in tears of joy or of despair? We'll see

Quite catchy the American national anthem.

Was it inspired by a British drinking song?

 

[Blue Punter]

Ronaldo looks charged up here.
