We need more portly panting English football journalists jogging around Mexico City to highlight what our elite young hyper-fit footballers will experience on Sunday night.
Thomas Tuchel has a message for parents ahead of the 1am start for the game against Mexico on Sunday night.
“Write an excuse for school and let them watch the game…”
He’s spot on, everyone should be encouraged to get up and support the country! 🏴
@jamesfarrar Oh boohoo like they are forced to sit there and act like a taxi... wanna be a taxi do the knowledge of London.. I did it in all weather's..
Mi papá en el 82 empezó a coleccionar las pelotas del Mundial, son todas las originales, compradas en cada año del mundial, nunca se usaron para jugar… estan impecables.
Su regalo de hoy fue esto para que las ponga como se debe.
Pd: Nos falta la Jabulani (2010) que estamos en eso… por eso, como representación, hay una mas chiquita.
Y si, trionda ya esta ahi.
🚨 Wayne Rooney on Declan Rice's set-pieces that inspired England's 4-2 victory:
🗣️ “For the whole of last season, people mocked Arsenal's set-pieces. They called them boring, said they were ruining football and claimed they could never win the biggest trophies playing that way.
Now look at England.
Declan Rice is delivering those same quality dead balls and they've played a huge part in a 4-2 win.
I've watched this World Cup closely and one thing stands out: Arsenal players have consistently produced dangerous set-pieces, with several leading directly to goals.
Maybe the issue was never the set-pieces.
Maybe people were simply frustrated because their own teams didn't have players capable of executing them at that level.
Football fans love effective set-pieces when they're winning games. They only complain when someone else is better at them.”
