It's not?! Is that global or just where you're at?
Ha. Just here in Spain as far as I know.

They've been showing half the matches on the public tv channel. Argentina v Holand are on tomorrow and Portugal v Morocco on Saturday. I imagine they booked that time slot thinking Spain would be playing.

Fortunately showing both semis and obviously the final.

There’s not a lot successive British governments have got right, but ensuring the World Cup remains free to air is one of them.

It’s not FIFA’s competition, it’s the world’s competition and everyone on earth ought to have a right to watch it without hindrance.
 
I don't know what the others think, but I have the impression a little bit that the English media is already boasting as if England had beaten France already. Loads of puff pieces out about how wonderful everyone is and how England have made their plans for Mbappe etc. Never ends well that kind of thing
I can't go near any of that chest-puffing nonsense. I noticed the unspeakable tabloid had put a load of England guff on an Mbappe wax work and decided that was front page news the other day.

England might very well mark Mbappe out of the game.

Unfortunately for them, Giroud and Dembele are absolutely flying, and their midfield is more than a match for England's: Tchouameni, Rabiot, Camavinga are playing well and can run rings around Henderson if he's selected.

They love to do this, it gives them a strong position no matter what the result. If England wins they can continue and boast about how much they and the country have backed them, if they lose they will have the damning headlines at the ready, saying how much of a disappointment they have been.

“Bellingham the bell” - they can rarely resist tearing someone down once they have built them up to impossible highs.

Hoping it doesn’t happen of course but if it does at least the lad can look at others they have done it to and try not to take it too much to heart.
