   Belgium overhyped as usual anyway.

Has there been all that much hype about them this time?

Their golden generation is already either retired or largely immobile. Courtois the only one left who could truly be considered world class in terms of being in the discussion as the best at his position.

Haven't seen any hype. Those days are over.

Loving Cape Verde, the nutmeg of the competition so far

Lukaku always shows at the World Cup that he really lacks sharp movement in the box when the space is tight. "Fox in the box" he is not.

Iraq good enough value for this so far.

Lukaku never had good, quick feet even in his prime at Everton, he likes to bull past lads and thump it. He doesn't have the legs anymore for that.

Belgium won't go far.

Felt it was a pen, one player wiped out Martinez and the other got the ball after tackle.. Not sure what others make of it

Thought so too. The foul was before the other defender got the ball. Poor penalty by Messi. Ronaldo will be delighted.

Was a penalty after a few views

Messi walking around like those memes of Pablo Escobar... head down, depressed

Good goal.

The Argies love a row.

[Aaron Boone]

Congratulations to Lionel.

[gallsman]

He has scored that one so many times over the last 20 years 

[Blowitupref]

2nd goal for Messi and Argentina

[screenexile]

He just keeps delivering! Alvarez should have scored in the first place.

What a player
