It wasn’t a lack of luck; it was poor decision making by the manager from 60 mins on.

In most, if not all instances, “The buck stops at the top”.

@GBS,

Indeed, diver has a good point though as the commentators were saying what he said about the replacements. If it had worked out he would have been a genious, but where it went bad for England he also gets the blame for it. "The buck always stops at the top".

Quite an astonishing game.

In other news; the cheapest tickets at tonight’s final are £7,530 with most expensive upwards of £500,000

And England won the rugby match with Argentina, though it could have been a draw had they not ruled for England when Argentina’s late try was disallowed.

Why are you getting rugby news in Canada? 🤔

That new competition is dumb... SA and NZ can win all their matches but can't play in the final.

England and France game, 10 goals.

Spain and Argentina game, 1 goal. (And lame half time entertainment).


I know which match I enjoyed more.

I didn't care for a half time show either, I'd rather of heard what the commentators had to say about the first half of the game. I don't think FIFA cared much for it either. Trump likes to control everything even the FIFA cup.

You would love love hockey, if you believe 10 goals is a better game than a 1-0 game with over time I might add. I didn't like the red card making Argentina play a man down, not sure it was deserved. I seen worst with no card.

Have a Great Day!

Same here.

The half time entertainment was shockingly bad; except for that Shakira lass who was very easy on the eyes, if I may say so 👀
