The Official FIFA World Cup 2022 Megathread

[Dire Wolf]

That was some great football from Morocco there, just a shame the final cross wasn't good.

 

[Alan]

From a Wolves perspective, it is fucking painful to watch the difference in this Moroccan defense with/without Saïss.

 

[Alan]

WOW

 

[Dire Wolf]

Another peach of a goal.

 

[Alan]

I can't believe he got his body shape right to take it in the manner he did. Looks to me like he meant it as a shot, too.

Brilliant stuff. This has been a great watch.

 

[Alan]

1. That's a penalty
2. I'm not mad it wasn't given

It was 100%, but me neither.

 

[Banjo]

France giving the ball away a bit and looking nervy so far. Argentina's approach play is good.

 

[jd1981]

Upemacano the one at fault there certainly wasn’t a foul

 

[Dire Wolf]

Argentina well on top at the moment, playing some nice stuff.

 

[jd1981]

Not for me that contact comes after he’s falling

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Not sure about that.

 

[Dire Wolf]

Very soft.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

It's soft but it's never getting overturned. Was awful defending overall, mind you I don't think I've ever seen him in that position in club football, he never tracks back.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Shit defending by Dembele to begin with but doesn't really do anything to send Di Maria sprawling.

 

[Dire Wolf]

It's a pretty enjoyable game so far to be fair.

 

[jd1981]

Once you get touch tight running behind someone you’re asking for trouble

 

[Jack Regan]

Messi is the Andrew Johnson of this tournament.

 

[Alan]

God, Hernandez is just imminently unlikeable.

 

[Sniffer]

This ref is another useless one. Given everything to Argentina so far and denies advantage to France when Giroud was just clattered.
