Spain V Portugal - the first match that has kept my attention Indeed, and I'm hoping to see more like it... Ronaldo's free kick that raised the score to 3 - 3 was a pure joy!
I don't watch every single game at the beginning of the tournament, just dip in and out at the moment...

Glad Iceland held Argentina to a 1-1 draw. Messi had a very poor game.

I was fully expecting Argentina to score in the last minute of extra time. It's what they usually do.
I've been dipping in and out to watch the smaller teams. Although, tbf, they aren't really holding my attention. It's more background noise and I look up when there's a roar.

I'm catching up on the Spain v Portugal game as loads of people said it was good.
Hmm.... 20 mins in and it's reminded me of why I went off the game. So much diving and cheating.

The Mexicans at the end showed how much that win meant to them.If only our players would come off the pitch with tears of joy in their eyes.

I'm just watching that game now. The Germans are getting booed by their own fans. And I'm not surprised.

Mini quake in Mexico caused by simultaneous celebrations after that win over Germany. Will it be another "Iceland" tonight for England? We shall see.

Susan could probably play better than Panama and Belgium are managing at the moment....

I know. I've turned it off and I'm watching my recordings of Old Corrie.

Oh gods... we are going to be humiliated. The Gods of Sport hate hubris. Remember what happened when that Swedish newspaper produced that fake headline where they had beaten England 2-0? They were rubbish!

I can't believe they have shown it right before the game on national TV. We're doomed.

Well, we got the points but we didn't deserve them. First goal a lucky tap in, second goal a moment of brilliance. The rest of it was rubbish. And gods help us if Kane gets injured cos none of the others know where the goal is.
