Day 5: Sweden vs South Korea, Belgium vs Panama and Tunisia vs England (19H00)

What’s with all the big teams being shite so far.only Belgium played a somewhat convincing half of football, but Panama are barely a pro level team.
 
You expect unbiased commentary during those games though. Which is why England games are so entertaining - the veil of professionalism disappears and you're left with Lineker's conspiracy theories.
The commentary is every bit as biased when Scotland, Wales, N.I. or Ireland play.
 
England has always been a painful watch since Scholes, Lampard and peak Rooney.

Good defence, tactically and physically solid across the field. Just lack of flair and intelligence when attacking. Not so good for the neutrals.

Nothing wrong with England in this game, theyve created loads... bad finishing and a dumb pointless penalty conceded the reason this isnt 4-0 basically.

Also spain-portugal were both very good. But generally... first game, teams often ease into things.
 
From playing like Barca earlier, England are playing like United now.
It’s fine. They’ll bring Fellaini on and play route 1 football*


*dont really know what ‘route 1’ means but I know it’s associated with Fellaini
 
But those nations doesn't have neutral viewers funding their channel.
There's millions out there who just want to watch a game of football, they can be biased but not overly so that it effects their punditry of the game
How did you feel about all the gushing over Brazil? Or the excitement over Mexico?

If rivalry in football disappeared, there'd be nothing left. I don't want to hear emotionless robots and neither do the viewing public on the whole. If they did, focus groups would have changed things ages ago.

It's the opposite with this team. Good attackers, bad defence and midfield.
 
Rashford's goal coming, remember he has scored every goal on his debut? UCL, EPL, EL, friendlies, etc
