Brutally soft call.



Good. Poland save.

Huge dive leads to a penalty for Saudi Arabia... and the Polish keeper makes two of the best saves you will ever see.

VAR giving that as a penalty just shows how ridiculous it was that Laryea’s wasn’t a penalty for Canada

It was weak. This ref has been terrible. He should not have overruled himself.

But again it's about positioning, Laryea had none. The Polish guy is fouling from behind.

Exceptional saves!

Trivia Time: How many current or former Arsenal goalkeepers are players in this world cup?

So if they all got a Rolls Royce for beating Argentina, what’s the punishment for losing to Poland? Players come home to find out a family member has been publicly executed?

I imagine that Qatar's rulers would be fine with the Saudi's bringing these sacrificial lambs to Qatar so it could be done in front of the players to really get the message to resonate with them.

Mexico can eliminate Argentina with a win.

Even a draw puts Argentina in a position where they likely must win by 2 goals over Poland in the final game.

They haven’t announced yet. But latest Rumor is 4 team groups still. I was reading an article about the lawsuit Budweiser has filed against FIFA and they were talking about it.

If they lose to Poland, then this becomes their Rolls Royce

Thought frosted tips went out with the 98 WC, apparently not in France.

That one looks like it really killed Denmark's spirit.

It's been a really clean tournament so far 1 reckless red card only and no own goals!

I expect fireworks between Argentina and Mrxico.

The 2:1 loss and a 1:1 draw weren’t really functionally different for Denmark.

Either way, they had to win against Australia in the last match.

A Mehico win really solidifies my belief that Messi only plays well when he’s paid well, i.e.: for his club.

Hard to blame a guy of course. But then just look at what Ronaldo does with a weaker Portugal side.
