World Cup 2022 Japan v Costa Rica, Spain v Germany, Belgium v Morocco, Croatia v Canada - Sunday 27th

[bluetonic]

So shit this game

Belgium such a boring team, hope Morocco steal this.

 

[Partickger]

Belgium look hopeless and were extremely lucky to beat Canada. I can’t believe a washed up Eden Hazard is getting a start at this World Cup.

 

[CaptainCourageous]

Some really dross game of football thus far.

 

[Ianis 4 the 55]

Lukaku in the last 20 min could save them
Ups. Now I saw he's not on the substitution list

 

[Jelle1880]

Lukaku in the last 20 min could save them

Not sure he'll play, he's supposedly fit again but Martinez is incredibly stubborn

edit: This twat brings on Mertens lmao

 

[jones65]

Martinez has been Belgium coach for over six years now.

Why?

 

[top_cat]

Dull as f.uck, Martinez like Southgate will be their downfall, far too cautious.

 

[Ianis 4 the 55]

Not sure he'll play, he's supposedly fit again but Martinez is incredibly stubborn

I read before this stated that all the country was appalled at his choice of players

 

[Shengus Malengus]

Looking back on my bet history and I've had a bet on 9 world cup games.

I've picked the winner of one match to date.


Hope you lot don't have Belgium.

Belgium look hopeless and were extremely lucky to beat Canada. I can’t believe a washed up Eden Hazard is getting a start at this World Cup.

And as captain.

Even at his peak I'd have never chosen him as a captain. Must be far better leaders in that team

 

[Peter_OHanrahahanrahan]

The standard of long range shooting in this WC has been absolutely dogshit. I've lost count of the amount of shots from outside the box that have blazed into row Z.

EDIT and just as I post this the Moroccan has an effort that Jonny Wilkinson would be proud of.

 

[WinkieWATP]

Batshayai has had some career for an incredibly bang average striker.

 

[Jelle1880]

I read before this stated that all the country was appalled at his choice of players

Yep. Belgium's 'golden generation' are all too old but he keeps calling them up, despite younger players being ready to come in.

 

[Jim Prideaux]

KDB has been dreadful this WC.

 

[Jelle1880]

Morrocans love going down easily, good to see this ref not falling for it

 

[Neilston Unionist]

The standard of long range shooting in this WC has been absolutely dogshit. I've lost count of the amount of shots from outside the box that have blazed into row Z.

I'm convinced the ball is similar to the 2010 one which was infamous for being too light

Belgian Danny Welbeck

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Jenas is doing my fucking head in

Another one, like Messi, Ronaldo and Bale, who seem way past their best but their countries don't have any better replacements.

Michy Batshauayi seems completely clueless. I honestly don't think he knows the offside rules the way he just runs up the field without any concern for where the last defender is.

Dreadful game. Aye, another one.

 

[Moreloslaces]

This Belgium game is easily the worst Ive watched. Absolutely dreadful.

I remember as a teen trying to recreate the Rats and Belanov strikes during 1986 WC

 

[WinkieWATP]

1-0

Just like that

 

[Jelle1880]

There it is

 

[Chainman]

Great strike

 

[jones65]

Ffs. Lesson not learned

 

[Hillheadbear]

Gooooaaaallll

Straight in from the free kick

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Edit.

 

[sofa_kineazy]

Ooofffff!

 

[Bristol_bnose3]

Thank f88k for that.

Hopefully Belgium and that useless fanny Martinez go out.

 

[HarryBosch]

KDB has been dreadful this WC.

Always seems to look uninterested and huffy when playing for Belgium. And every time I've watched Belgium, it always looks like some players don't want to pass to certain other players. Seems to be a lot of ego's in the team.

 

[Moreloslaces]

No more than Belgium deserve, they've been woeful. Underdogs again to beat favourites.

 

[jones65]

Pish defending again.

 

[Liviger1984]

Belgium have been shit the whole tournament

 

[Socrates]

Don't know why you would take Boufal off

 

[Partickger]

Courtois massive ego will be deflated with that shocker.

 

[TheHammerJorgAlbertz11]

Well deserved.

Belgium have been awful.

 

[club175]

All comes from a ridiculous freekick given away

 

[Sheik Ma Shammy]

Belgium whatever happened to them, that was a bad goal for anyone to lose.

 

[top_cat]

Thank f88k for that.

Hopefully Belgium and that useless fanny Martinez go out.

They deserve nothing less, bloody awful.

 

[Unclerico27]

KDB has been dreadful this WC.

He's not coping with being surrounded by second raters. A couple of times in the first half he didn't give the obvious pass to Batshuayi, probably realising Michy is hopeless.

 

[Jamiegatami]

“Here we are and here we are and here we go,
The Moroccans have scored a goal,
Here we go
Moroccan all over the world”

Status Quo - Morocco’s World Cup song 1986

 

[jones65]

And still no Lukaku

 

[HeverleeRFC]

Martinez should of been sacked years ago.

 

[Ardsman]

Belgium getting exactly what they deserve out of this game so far.

 

[Wazza]

These Nations who don't drink hammering the Europeans in the stands to be fair.

 

[Ianis 4 the 55]

And after Belgium comes Croatia. That game will be great too.

 

[Dynamo]

I'm convinced the ball is similar to the 2010 one which was infamous for being too light

Too light causing it to move a lot, not float away. From memory that ball resulted in plenty of screamers.

 

[WinkieWATP]

Boot in the baws

 

[Jamiegatami]

Boot in the baws

Sore one

 

[Bristol_bnose3]

Lukaku was always a big chap but he looks like he’s been at the Wagon Wheels to me.
