Can't really ask much more of England than what was produced last night against Iran.

Bale is all they got

 

[grecefar]

Let's see, argentina should do what england did.

 

[Irish Jet]

Higuain's fault.

 

[Rankles75]

Wow, did NOT see that coming! Big two games for Argentina now, against Poland and Mexico.

1HT / 2FT

👏👏👏 Saudi played a great match

 

[grecefar]

Man that was hilarious.

Props to the crown jewels, the offside strategy worked out.

 

[FriedTofu]

I blame you for the jinx. 36 match unbeaten run ended. Messi can't win these cats.

But honestly the Saudi played really well.

People travelled all that way and they can’t even get a beer. Pathetic on so many levels. Middle East tries so hard to buy acceptance but always strike out on anything that matters. Living in the past must be fun, looks fun from what I’ve seen.

Saudis with the upset of the tournament. The game's not dead even though the migrant workers are.

But the joy is real there, is not because of alchohol. You can drink beer, but not in public places. You don’t need alchohol to watch and enjoy a game and after you come from there you can drink again in public places.
The other issue I think you don’t like their laws, you miss the english fans ruining all the restaurants and break everything in their path, start fight with police and other supporters or something like that. We need fans at world cup, not animals. If you cannot enjoy world cup as a supporter in this conditions, then you are there for other reasons.

Argentina lmfaooooooooo fail.

 

[RealDealNow]

Jeez, wtf Agrentina? Will be suprised if they can still make it out of the group stage tbh.

 

[grecefar]

it would be pretty if they lose all three games.

the country will burn.

 

[beShali]

Apparently, Messi had a serious match the night before

 

[AthleticGirth]

I watched the highlights and it was no fluke win for the Saudis. They pressed high and hard, worked their offside trap, committed bodies to attacks, played a high intensity game and exploited Argentinian weaknesses.

I don't think it's as big a shock as the US beating England in '50 or Korea beating Italy in '66 because the Saudi League is a decent enough standard and many of the squad play for Al-Hilal which is Asia's top club side.

They're also coached by the excellent Herve Renard. Two times African Cup of Nations winner, former Cambridge United manager and damn handsome man.

He's a good promo.
