The group of death really is going to be the group of death.

Were Canada done out of a 2nd penalty shortly after the first?

Think it was offside

An Watcher

It wasn't offside as the defender played the ball back, not a Canadian player.  Thought it was a pen myself but slow mo showed a touch from the defender before he nicked the striker

Belgium's defence will hold them back.

Can't believe Aldeweireld and Vertonghen are still at the back  crazy.

If Canada had a striker they'd have won that.

So good until the final third and while the quality of their defending wasn't great you couldn't fault them for effort. Disappointing for them but if they can keep playing like that they have a chance to qualify.

Hard to qualify if you can't score.  On today's evidence, I'd be a bit surprised if they get a goal, despite playing some very nice ball elsewhere on the pitch.

You must have been watching it on a different pitch from me. What I saw was akin to an early under 14 match interspersed with lads who primarily played GAA. Ball being hoofed around and no real skill or panache. An absolutely dreadful game.
Careful now

At least our midfielders can score

Did the Germans get a premonition about the final score?

when you pull a stunt like that you have to make bloody sure you win the game or else you look foolish.

Merely reflecting the mood of the German population at home, massive boycotts and ill feeling about the World Cup in general.

The Iranian team pulled a similar stuff with the national anthem and don't look foolish  ::)
