    It seems remarkable that Ndoye hasn't scored yet, but at the same time unsurprising. Has he had the most chances of any player at the tournament so far?

    Switzerland look much better since Ndoye went off and Freuler came on.

    Well his pens were shit in my opinion. Why any elite level penalty taker would ever risk hitting them a that saveable height is utterly beyond me. Compare them to Xhaka's just now.

    On first read, I thought you were referring to her (not inconsiderable) norks.

    Freuler was always on.

    Somehow I've been rather enjoying the pundit pairing of Benni McCarthy and Thomas Frank (and Ashley Williams managing to hold his own). Tactics and psychology, with no bullshit, and an affable demeanour.

    Bradley Wright-Phillips on the other hand...

    6-0 is a great result that probably guarantees Canada into R32 but Koné is a huge loss.

    Has Lopetegui always come across as a wanker?

    The Americans are going to win this World Cup aren't they?

    Trump will be lifting the trophy himself in a month's time.

    Probably not. Australia wont, but they might kick a few other teams out of it.

    You'll not be surprised to hear I'd had the same thought.

    I'm surprised Trump hasn't been at any of the games yet.

    This said, I refuse to believe a team with Ream at CB can make meaningful progress in this tournament.

    48 team tournament gives easy games for mediocre teams. How many of the us team would get into our team? Compared to the teams that might win.
