FIFA World Cup 2022

I believe Kane is only one goal behind Rooney's record now.

[Szumi]

Yeah, Bellingham made that one happen. Fantastic.

[TheGrandAvatar]

There we go Harry. Lovely.

These first 4 round of 16 games have been generally foregone conclusions by halftime. Hopefully Japan and South Korea can cause even more chaos tomorrow.

[TheGrandAvatar]

Knew Kane would get his goal tonight.

Bellingham is different gravy. 

Senegal just took their eye off it there, too many caught on their heels and that might be a long way back now.

It feels so much like a drug dealer giving out a free sample with the intent of getting someone addicted, I really wish the gambling industry was much more strictly moderated. Or moderated at all. 

The pure sportsbook companies I don't believe are making money with the massive ad push and promotions, and it's clear most will just consolidate. But in the end their hope is they can just get enough people hooked and that the tax revenues they pay are enough where they'll be free from regulations that inhibit their ability to make money.

Not that people haven't driven to sportsbooks, tracks, and casinos before, but that is somewhat self-regulated due to the need to go there.

If you banned gambling advertising here, we'd only have the meerkats and the Go Compare man on a constant loop.

Or that bird saying 'Granny I got the job'. 🤮

What day will England play France if they get through? I'm away at the weekend. 😒

I don't think Morocco will be an easy game for Spain either.

Thank you. An excuse to avoid the Christmas show that will be playing at the hotel. 

[Bobfoc]

Eight different players have scored for England so far at this World Cup. I don't think that's ever happened before.

Take Gio Compario’s name outta your mouth. Guy’s a national treasure. 

[Bobfoc]

Another nice goal

[TheGrandAvatar]

Saka. He's having a good tournament. 

Irish Father is pouting at all this. 😅

[Bobfoc]

Do you get cocky now and start taking key players off?

[TheGrandAvatar]

I would wait a little longer before doing that with key players. Once you get to the 70th. Do the change then. Depending though on fitness and tactics on what Southgate might have planned. Would give Wilson a run out though later on.

You might be right. Given that there's a six-day gap to the next match, burnout might be less of an issue than it could otherwise be.
