Very poor half from Uruguay. In a group they'd expect to be very strong in, they've looked poor. Suarez hasn't been his best, have to wonder if he's fully fit. Just not been at the races.

Egypt player just injured himself doing an overhead kick....apparently

BBC call a goal but Suarez had somehow put it wide, nobody noticed until the replay!

As blatant a dive you'll see by an Egypt player, but no booking. Should have been a nailed on yellow for it.

Turned out to be a mismatch in the end really didn't it? Always felt that last free kick was going in. I didn't think Saudi Arabia looked that bad early in the game, seemed to be able to get forward well. Once Russia settled in though that was only going one way, really. Defensively vulnerable...

That was a good finish, just to rub the salt in a bit deeper.

Saudi Arabia have been shocking in defence. They really have made Russia look good in all honesty.

Not a bad touch to set that up for himself. Saudi look very suspect at the back.

They do seem to give the ball away too much, do the Saudi's. Been a few mistakes by them.

Can't believe that wasn't flagged offside. I know they're not supposed to flag for marginals, but that was a clear mile!

Well, that is true.

Am I the only one who things Angels really doesn't really cut it for an opening ceremony? I mean, it's not meant to be a dirge, is it?

At least she waved the thing, unlike Pele back in the day....but what I found interesting (worrying!?) was that she had an official FIA flag marshall telling her when to wave it! Can only speculate he was also bored rigid, and wanted to put everyone out of their misery! Well impressed with...

I usually look forward to Canada. Plenty of scope to overtake, very little run off, mistakes tend to be met with a wall, a vibrant atmosphere..... But that, well. You could scarcely call that a race. A complete and utter bore. If it hadn't been for that early crash, absolutely nothing of...

Fadiga?

Tempting as it is to take you up on, I'd best not. I'm in the middle of a fitness drive, and chocolate is sadly a no no.

We used to go on holiday to Cornwall every summer holiday. Usually St Ives, because that was our favourite bit, giving easy access to the Lizard, Penzance, Land's end etc (my goodness, I miss the chocolates from Mullion!) One year we went to catch the fireworks over at Land's End. It was pretty...

Which ties in well with my curiosity when reading back this thread. I assume the bet made in this thread has not been paid then?

Has Dongonzalos been heard from lately, or has he completely vanished?

Better than Biamou, who dropped the ball!
