In a "nothing to play for game" England can't beat a team they are supposed to be roughly equal to or a bit better than.

In a "nothing to play for game" South Korea can beat a team that is supposed to be about a million times better than they are.

Can anyone honestly say that they think england will will the ruddy 'cup'?

More chance of that than Brexit being a success IMO.

For some Patriotism 'Trumps' rationality.

Lets stop all this (re)moaning and negativity and get behind them and the country.

Seen more soccer in the last 2 weeks than in the last 2 decades. If you'd told me a month ago I'd watch so much, I'd have guessed you needed mental treatment

But I think you're harsh about England v Belgium. Both played their B Teams. Was the result so important?

Fwiw, I think the Belgians are a class better than the English. But the English are dangerous with set-piece attacks and always have a chance. And the good news is, someone else will deal with Belgium, before you meet them again. Good luck!

The results of football matches [ or of any sporting contest] are of zero importance but they serve to distract the hoi polloi from things that do matter.

It's been a good tournament and lots of very positive reports about Russia and Russian people from our footie fans who are loving it...and even the weather has been great.

Just shows you never know a place until you've been there and discovered it for yourself.

I noticed today that...

I made a fat pigeon run. Apparently it was too lazy to flap its wings to avoid being run over so it ran instead.
