Ouch 2-0. Interviews afterwards will be tense?!

Deserved, but probably makes little difference to Wales. Wales would probably have had to beat England regardless.

Bale anonymous.

How the ref thought that was a yellow ?!

Fingers crossed. Hoping Andy Carroll and Lucas Joao injure each other in training just before the game.

I agree - just think Reading are being a bit weird trying to prevent people going (even potentially their own fans) in vase a few City bought tickets in their sections. It wouldn't be significant enough to cause issues.

Haven't gone back to look what others have said, but Ronaldo's should never have been a pen imo.

Bit weird though; it's not as if they're playing Celtic or the like, with thousands of invaders trying to worm their way in.

I like the idea, but do wonder if the opposing team start doing everything they can to feign 'fouls' from challenges, particularly if the team is near the limit. May well work with VAR (sigh) who could check the validity of each yellow card decision - leading to a yellow for the other team...

To be fair, it was for awarding us a penalty in the home game against Notts County in the first leg of the play off.

Hartson - plus for mentioning Haji and City Hartson - minus for criticising Perisic giving away a silly foul, when the Moroccan player dived to the ground after Perisic hadn't touched him.

Had to read that twice. My first read led to a lifetime ban :oops:

Matty Cashovski turning out for Poland !

The thing for me is that if they make those sort of things penalties, then I'd be encouraging attackers in crowded areas to dink the ball up to above waste height all the time in the hope of hitting an arm. It's almost impossible for the defender to avoid and would just become a lottery of where...

Not a pen for me. In real time he had no chance of avoiding it and his hand was not in an unnatural position. If that was given against us I'd be fuming.

One observation of the games in general, is that there have been a lot of very close calls for yellow/red challenges, and the refs seem to be giving players very little protection. That challenge down the back of Kane and numerous others have been really 'naughty' and if teams realise they can...

Souness is right on the TV. Saudi Arabia out-aggressed (no such phrase!) Argentina, which usually never happens.

Argentina been poor. Saudis - defended brilliantly but dirty. Keeper should be sent off for time wasting !! Hope the defender is ok.

Got mine - although forgot the site doesn't function properly on my laptop. Was getting mad, then remembered I got them via my phone last time. Bingo !!

Agreed - no way we don't come top in that group.
