Love to see it!

I get the concacaf thing but I really struggle to root for Mexico.

If that'd gone in I reckon I'd have heard the roar in Bristol.

Nah, drowned out by the mariachi

Sithouse of a defensive play by Sithole there.

South Africa joyously marching towards the cannons here.

Id like to see this Mexican wunderkind at some point. Not getting my hopes up tho

 

[ChesterBlue]

Booing Infantino I see - deserved

The prospect of playing Mexico at their gaff isn’t going to appeal to any of the sides in this

Modern football in a nutshell that goal.

Opening game against one of the hosts and rank outsiders, lets pass it around at the back even though they are obviously uncomfortable doing so. Absolute madness.

I’m not sure we’re getting the authentic Mexican experience here

When does the guy in a colourful mask jump off the posts onto somebody?

Brilliant for fans, though.

Surely everyone wants to see their team play in a ground like this.

Typical FIFA to use a massive version of their logo as the replay bumper.

No one - literally no one - cares about FIFA.

We’re here for the World Cup, you self-obsessed clowns.

Yeah round pegs in square holes

Play the football you find most comfortable

A booking already, and a few questionable tackles thrown in. It's about top become a long night for SA here...

Electronic Arts clearly agreed and I don’t think it’s hurt them much
