GROUP C - France, Australia, Peru, Denmark

[stipe]

Goal line technology absolutely but going back over every goal for a fraction of an offside? Not for me.

No need to go back for little things but for important game changing stuff like penalties or suspicious goals,i rather few minutes delay then penalty because some [Poor language removed] dived and ref missed it

I want Parliament to debate what value Mark Lawrenson brings to BBC football coverage.

 

[gonetomorrow]

No way France are winning the cup anyhow. Last night's teams would both be too quick for them.

Utter frogs diving all over the place. Harsh on Timmy c this

Wouldn’t be a long debate

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Wouldn’t be a long debate

As with everywhere else, parliament is probably crawling with Kopites, so no doubt he'd probably receive an MBE an given a lifetime contract with BBC.

France are worse than England. If Peru and Denmark turn up, they might struggle to get out the group.

 

[Sarnia Kevin]

On that performance there is very little to admire about that French team, diving prima donnas

 

[toffeejack]

So unlucky there the aussies , France will pick it up sooner or later.

 

[McBain]

Well, good showing against those cheats.

What the actual [Poor language removed] replays was the ref watching. WHY did it go to VAR? Didnt the ref play on?

Oh well be good to see France get stuffed.

 

[TheBlueGibbon]

I like that the BBC have decided to cutaway from Phil Neville.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Good to see the bbc not pandering to VAR here.

 

[arminisgod]

Thats it in a nutshell.

Any contact on the ball negates any contact on the player after that - within the same motion ofcourse.

no it doesn't! Still amazes me how many people don't know the rules of football!

I think if Cahill isn't brought on here then it's pretty obvious he is only going to be used in an absolute emergency. Shame, but you can sort of understand it... we all saw him in his last 2 years at Everton, and that was 6 years ago, haha! Love him though.

should have brought him on to take the penalty. chance to be only the 5th player ever to score in 4 world cups. I really hope he gets a chance to do it
