Kane, Messi, Mbappe, Haaland, Vini, Dembele. The big stars seem to have been delivering so far.
That is the best part of the cup so far. We just need to see the young Spaniard step up.
I want a top 8 with the best attacking teams and the USA in it to keep the local buzz going.
Also I've got to say the standard has been set as far as venues go. So many world cups you see crap oval type venues.

I don't know what Senegal are complaining about that was a penalty any day of the week. It is unlucky because it wasn't a deliberate act but that is the sport.
I am sick of seeing players touch the ref or get in their faces. I would spray those players with yellow.

Sorry for ignorance. What WTF does being offside even mean? That’s 2 goals now taken.

Roughly speaking, the offensive player who touches the ball cannot be farther back (or I guess forward from his perspective) than the furthest back defender when the ball comes off the foot of the player who passed it.

Great stuff, the USA are safe and through now.
I was holding off on saying this but now they are safe...you fellas who don't think that tackle was a red card are mad - that was a sickening tackle. What was he thinking. Red all day unless I have no idea what you can get a red card for. Also I would have red carded the Bosnian coach remonstrating like a child - horrible look for the game.
