What’s worth looking into? It’s a quick way of getting even richer in an emerging football market. 

Both countries are in direct opposition for hosting the 2030 World Cup

Pressure on Argentina will be big tomorrow.

They probably hope the other game is draw too ?

If Saudi Arabia win they are the first team through 

[Balj]

Ref looks much better than the Australia/Tunisia game - much more of a get on with it style

They look really decent  tbh.

No.23 looks a great workhorse in midfield.

Hope Brendan's watching!!!

[KFS]

What do we need here so messi gets dumped out 

[Finnegan]

Credit where it's due, the Saudi 10 is really handy.

[Tielemans63]

Impressed by the Saudis. Al Dawsari and Kanno look like proper players.

He's inspired strong feelings in me on many an occasion:)

Mateusz Cashz struggling a bit here. Could have walked there.

[StanSP]

Cash is lucky to avoid another booking there.

I know I bang this drum a lot but rugby's a lot further ahead in it's concussion journey than football but even in rugby Cash wouldn't be penalised for that. He's the player going up for the ball, his arms are in a natural position for balance and to protect himself. 

 

Not even a vague issue there, it's just unfortunate. It's a contact sport, collisions sometimes happen.

Fair play to the ref for not putting up with those shitey little tactical fouls from Poland

I thought he jumped across him with his elbow right out. I get that you need your arms for leverage but that was a bit careless in my opinion, seemed to lean with his elbow. Each to their own though.

It was like a bad blind date

Game on

[Finnegan]

Really good goal. Great run and cross from Cash, thought Lewandowski recovered excellently after his first touch. Good finish.

[trabuch]

How much is this commentator being paid by the Saudis?

[Balj]

Not a pen surely

[RowlattsFox]

Never a penalty. Contact means nothing. 

[Super_horns]

A small clip - is that enough for a penalty ?

[whoareyaaa]

what a fix
