Don't know if this is common knowledge, but the BBC has produced a spoiler-free link to watch World Cup match highlights without knowing the score.
Simply go here:

I remember when, if there were 3 red cards in a game, the stadium would be like a cauldron. In this age of petty, over officious VAR it kills the atmosphere and makes supporters feel like they are disconnected to whats going on.
Second red card for South Africa because, once again, VAR is watching an entirely different game on TV to the rest of us. And they have the remote control.
That ITV backdrop is absolutely mesmerising. Can't concentrate on the punditry for thinking, "Now as soon as the coverage was over, if I were them, where would I head for to get something to eat and then nicely hammered?"

The ITV panel seem to be over-arguing to order here. Seems like the production team have given notes about how popular those performative fan YouTubes are.
The opening goal wasn't worth that heat guys was it?
Getting restless with the game here so we're playing: Former Mexican Squad Member or Mountain In Mexico?
No googling:
Vantolrá
Iztaccihuatl
Popocatépetl
Castrejón
Jocotitlán
Cuauhtémoc Blanco
On the way to winning the 1966 World Cup, England played Mexico and won 2-0 thanks to goals by Bobby Charlton and Bobby Hunt.
An omen of things to come?
I think our names on the trophy.

I am absolutely alight for this World Cup. I know people have been previously saying they are not feeling it but now we're here, all this babble and balls beforehand, to know there is A GAME coming tonight: Mexico v SA.
Oh yeah.
Let's go.
I'm getting on for 70 now. I have had some lush jobs in my career - going to five World Cups among them. I can recognise a sweet touch when I see it.
And I have to say that berth the ITV gang have got in New York is an absolute peach of a gig.
On good wages too!
Bravo everyone!
Cannot understand these endless posts from those objecting to Americans calling it "soccer" - the word originally used for it in the UK - when 70% of dopes here still say "footie".
