FIFA World Cup 2022

The biggest problem with our now eliminated team was highlighted by the commentator, 7 of the starting 11 were over 30. How Lukaku managed to miss so many sitters is mind boggling.

Rejuvinate with a younger squad and we will be back. Au revoir les Diables Rouge

I must have misheard but I thought Belgium were the second rated team in the tournament

I thought Croatia were also poor

[Mike]

Belgium were rated 2nd in FIFA's latest world rankings list on 06/10/22 :- https://www.fifa.com/fifa-world-ranking ... Id=id13792

Strange; they must have been doing well in important matches

[slogen51]

Germany on track by leading Costa Rica 1-0

[Gary]

Japan just gone 2-1. Was watching the German game and it cut to the German fans

[slogen51]

The cat is really among the pigeons now

Amazing

[slogen51]

Costa Rica equalize against Germany!

If Costa win and Spain don't score another goal then Spain and Germany are eliminated!

It's mad

England are looking quite good now

[plmc135]

Bigger cat CRC lead GER 2 -1

[slogen51]

Poland are through

Big day for Germany tomorrow but although they are bottom of the group they probably will go through.

Germany must beat Costa Rica which they should do and hope that Japan don't beat Spain which is unlikely otherwise Germany will need a really big win to overcome Spain's goal advantage.

Costa Rica can qualify with a win

It's crazy

Germany equalize but still not enough

[iainpeden]

Germany out.

[slogen51]

Germany beat Costa Rica 4-2 and are out

Japan and Spain through

Japan fully deserved that in a group with Germany and Spain

[Hurn]

Oh dear.

[James Cutting]

Strange; they must have been doing well in important matches

3rd in the 2018 WC as well, but are too old a squad now.

[Hurn]

Wow South Korea go through at the expense of Uruguay!

Typically Uruguay take it very well indeed at the end of the game.

[slogen51]

Nail biting end to both matches and I am a neutral

Whatever your opinion on the suitability of the host it has nonetheless been a great world cup so far.

The knockout out stage is more cagey as nobody wants to lose whereas in the group stages you get a must win situation especially in the latter stages of the group matches

[slogen51]

What is going on?

Cameroon 1-0 up against Brazil in injury time

Brazil lose 1-0 to Cameroon but still win the group with Switzerland runners up

[iainpeden]

And a referee with a sense of humour.

[Condor68]

iainpeden can you remember when I think Andrew Davidson was referee at Tannadice and he booked mjiodrag milosavice (or something like that it was a beaut)He obviously at the time when names were not on shirts ,he said name and the ref turned to the cameras shrugged the shouders and said why me? Sure Jazzie will put me right

[Condor68]

Anybody believe "the biter" crying at the end at least he hid his head or then he might have been laughing thinking he couldnt get the blame.Maybe watch what happened to the Columbian/
