Group A: Mexico, South Africa, South Korea, Czech Republic

[Haydn]

Super game, one of the benefits of being retired and not needing to clock on tomorrow.

 

[SuperTimCahill]

The four meter tall czechians are a lot whinier than the rather tiny koreans. Pathetic

 

[LinekersLegs]

Just lacking a bit of power

 

[LinekersLegs]

Enjoyed that

Sigh

All those empty seats upset me more than the Mexican wave

was there actually one? I was looking forward but then I think I fell asleep...

Yeah, very early on. First five minutes or so from memory.

Damn - totally missed it!

Just realised the TV feed here is nearly 40 seconds behind, phone told me it was 2-1 when the ball was on the halfway line.

...do you not silence updates when watching live?

I only get Everton and Czech updates, never noticed it before

...do you not silence updates when watching live?

I used to do this but now I’ve stopped. I feel like I need my phone to tell me the bad news before my eyes see it. Softens the blow.

Annoying that game was so late - looks like a cracker from the highlights

It was a cracker, it really was one of the best I've seen at this year's World Cup.

Tomas Chory, 1.99m utter carthorse with added red card liability.

Got banned for 6 matches after throwing an elbow in the Prague derby.

Slavia have cancelled his contract.
