England as guilty as the Belgians at not playing to win, whoever finishes second deserves a trashing by Colombia on the evidence of the first half Belgium even created more.

This is pitiful at the moment

Ironic that if this was a Checkatrade Trophy or Carabao Cup game then both teams would be charged with bringing the game into disrepute

Having seen the end of the Japan Poland game I hope we beat Japan 10-0 in the next round, shocking stuff really, just a shame Senegal didn’t score at the end.

Win the group and you play Japan in the next round, you couldn’t ask for a better fixture

Senegal heading out on yellow cards as it stands You can imagine the Japanese now just seeing the game out without any more bookings

Tend to agree with others let’s just go an win and make the world scared of playing us

You always go out to win but it does look like the runners up in our group will get the rub, the right hand side of this looks a much easier path than the left Potentially the next 2 rounds could be Japan and then the winner of Sweden v Switzerland, you couldn’t ask for a kinder path to the semi final

We’re among the favourites to win it now, one of our strengths was coming into it with no real expectations so let’s hope we stay grounded.

Flag went up for offside then VAR showed the ball came off a defender so no it wouldn’t have been given otherwise. In fairness Germany never looked like scoring

Germany gone And people doubted VAR

Pictures of Maradona being seen to by Paramedics after the game either legless drunk or from drugs. During the game he looked comically out of it but it’s obviously a real issue, he needs help.

Maradona is ridiculously out of it. Can the Super Eagles respond?

I’m better than Meza

That second touch from Messi was pure art

I liked that one of their players went round dragging his teammates up and bollocking them for it

Just realised I’m on a train home from London at 7pm on the 10th, I’m going to miss our semi final aren’t I?

Seems like the once talented Tony Watt is now focused on reviewing films and streaming himself playing Fortnite - what a waste

I think that’s one of the only games I’ve missed

Spain disagree last night a perfectly good goal was disallowed before VAR allowed for the correct decision: I think if you looked at every incident in which it’s been used this World Cup the success rate would be somewhere between 80-90% depending on your view. The penalty last night was for me the first time a wrong decision has come from it although there’s a few instances where it could have been used but hasn’t. Maybe that’s not high enough and that’s certainly y up for debate but VAR absolutely irrefutably does work at least to an extent.

I won’t be sad to see it go, just think there’s potential if used right.

So I’ve said from the start that I think VAR has been good this tournament - that brings us to today, firstly Ronaldo penalty, good decision, red card - good decision, Iran penalty - shambolic. The problem that I see emerging is refs are using it as a safety net and constantly checking, the clear and obvious error line is being lost already. The tech could work but refs need to be stronger and better - but if they were then we would have never needed it. Used when appropriate this could work, as it is it’s far to prevelant and nearly every incident that half was referred. At the same time it just allowed a perfectly good goal for Spain that would have been ruled out otherwise.

Ok now that’s one that didn’t need reviewing he’s become a little too reliant this ref. Tricky game to ref as both teams have acted awfully around him Hes just given a penalty now to Iran that never was a penalty after reviewing VAR, user error that

What’s he got wrong? I’ve not seen anything obvious

Ronaldo booked after a VAR review, borderline one but I think the ref got it right, the fact a lot think it’s a red shows how much it’s still down to opinion no matter how many angles you see. VAR helps but it can’t make it all perfect
