Coffee-fueled ramblings of a big music fan. Also sports.

Great result for Iceland there, picking up a point against Argentina.

6 mins in and France have had 3 good shots on goal already. Looks like a long afternoon for the Aussies.

@TheJerryEwing Yeah, I reckon the game would have gone quite differently if Spain scored first.

[Roe Dent @RoeDent89]

I didn't say it at the time, but Nacho's goal to me had echoes of Carlos Alberto's famous goal from the 1970 World Cup final. Just appeared from right of shot and fired a bullet.

[Roe Dent @RoeDent89]

Yes Ronaldo! You just KNEW that was going in! 3-3. I don't want this game to end.

[Roe Dent @RoeDent89]

Oh this game is living up to the hype and then some! The World Cup is here, people!

[Roe Dent @RoeDent89]

More of the same, please.

[Roe Dent @RoeDent89]

Oh yes! Great individual goal from Costa!

[Roe Dent @RoeDent89]

As I was saying, it's confusing that Spain wore red during the anthems and now it's Portugal in red for the game.

[Roe Dent @RoeDent89]

Portugal v Spain underway. Confusing that Spain...ooh, penalty Portugal...1-0.

[Roe Dent @RoeDent89]

Wow! Late own goal from Iran gives them their second ever win in World Cup history.

[Roe Dent @RoeDent89]

Morocco v Iran. File under: 2 hours of my life I'll never get back.

Afghanistan started their debut Test cricket match today, against India. Became the 12th Test nation.

Four tracks, with two epics clocking in at 19 and 29 minutes respectively. My inner prog nerd is jumping up and down with excitement.

#nowplaying Southern Empire's self-titled debut. I can't wait to hear Civilisation next month! If it's anything like the debut, it's going to be amazing!

[Roe Dent @RoeDent89]

#nowplaying Gershwin's Piano Concerto. I love this work, but it always gives me a real sense of "What if...?" as well. Imagine how much more he'd have enriched the concert hall repertoire if he lived longer than his 38 years...

[Roe Dent @RoeDent89]

@WillGav Fantastic for morale though, both the team's and the country's.

[Roe Dent @RoeDent89]

And there's number 5! Emphatic.

[Roe Dent @RoeDent89]

Brilliant goal!
