Clever Iranian free kick, but correctly disallowed for offsides.

Advantaged played on a foul worthy of a yellow card should still result in a yellow card after play stops. Here, it does not.
The officiating has been exceptionally good this #worldcup but that is consistently not adjudicated correctly in my view.
At minimum, the KSA counter was deprived of one attacking player.

Fantastic ball in from Oyarzabal to a sliding Yamal. Spain have started sharply.

Until then, Indian fans will once again watch from afar, cheering the Messis, Ronaldos and Neymars of the world, while marvelling at the achievement of nations such as Curaçao, the smallest country ever to reach the World Cup.
The inevitable question will linger: if Curaçao can do it, why can't India?

Curious about the “Support VAR” official, standing behind the VAR and Assistant VAR officials.
Do they stand the whole time? What support do they offer?
The whole showing of the VAR booth is awkward. I appreciate the transparency of it, but having them wearing uniforms is goofy.
#worldcup #fedifc

Ronaldo has terrible posture. Disgusting. Who let that shrimp on the pitch? #WorldCup #CopaMundial

Stepped away to talk to my father in law for just a couple of minutes and came back to find Spain running rampant, taking out all their first game frustrations against the Saudis.
Blink and they might score more!

The World Cup is one wildfire away from an air quality disaster
FIFA says it's prepared for "climate-related risks" but doesn't appear to have a plan for wildfire smoke, which can be harmful to players and fans.

Ireland's not in the World Cup. So this Irish pub turned its flag upside down to cheer the Ivory Coast | CBC Radio
When Ireland failed to qualify for the World Cup, staff at an Irish pub in Scotland joked that they should just turn their flags upside down and become an Ivory Coast bar instead. Three weeks later, Biddy Mulligans manager Ruairi O'Neill has found himself running what he believes is Scotland's first Ivorian-Irish pub.

How polluting will the World Cup be? 2026 could break all records
A report warns that the tournament in the US, Canada and Mexico could produce twice the emissions of previous editions.

#USMNT #WorldCup
watching the game on delay...
slo mo replay really gives away the idiotic "oh I'm so hurt" reactions of the game.
That and physically planting and jumping off the foot you now claim is totally irretrievably damaged...and then jump up and argue with the ref about it.

Incredible goal by Muñoz, redirecting and lifting the Diaz lobbed ball in. I was sure he was offside, but he was not.

The introduction of Manzambi has changed the game. Scored a beauty of a volley (while being pushed from behind) and then fed the pass that created the DOGSO & subsequent red card.
In an otherwise bland game, he's been a spark of vitality.

Should be red 🟥 on the clothesline nature alone. Cowardice from the referee and VAR
#porcod #worldcup #fedifc

Both sides lacking that final pass quality, but it really is wide open and you could see either side winning it. Seems far more likely to have a winner than a draw, to me.
#PORCOD #Worldcup #fedifc

Portugal are, at times, playing 0 men in the center when in possession. I’m not exactly sure what their tactical setup is. It sometimes looks like a 4-1-5 and other times like a 4-0-6. Madness!
#PORCOD #worldcup #fedifc

“Hwang starred as Korea Republic beat Czechia from behind”
Ouch!
Sadistic headline writer
#worldcup

Wissa! Thumping header against, it must be said, a fairly lazy corner defense. Level at HT.
Portugal are clearly better, but they look disorganized and arrogant. Feels like the Spain v Cape Verde result would have been a warning, but they’ve not heeded it.
Game on!
#porcod #worldcup

Right lads, don't fuck it up.

Goals (Freeman and OG) notwithstanding, McKinnie or Richards are my MOTM candidates for total contributions. Both were stellar.
Qualified for the knockout round and look likely to win group D. 👏

What a rip by Mbaye! And, if there is an Achilles Heel for France, is it goalkeeping?
#FRASEN #WorldCup #fedifc

Christ ITV, give Emma some decent computer graphics will you.

Mendy with another peach of a save. Closes the angle again. If I'm Deschamps, I'm wanting my players to cut laterally before shooting.

The US announcer trying to emulate the GOOOOOAAAAAAALLLLLL calls is pathetic.

If you were to offer me the choice to permanently remove:
hydration breaks OR Alexi Lalas
It's probably hydration breaks. I loathe Lalas, but I can and do mute the broadcast every time he's on. Hydration breaks seem a slippery slope.
#WorldCup #fedifc

Maignan does make an awkward save at the death and, while I'm critical of him overall, I think that was a really good reaction to a deflected ball.
#FRASEN #WorldCup #fedifc

Mon dieu! Mbappe shows that Senegal also have an Achille's Heel in goal. Made some huge saves, but that's from 35 yards out and not exactly top bins?
#FRASEN #WorldCup #fedifc

Nice one! Now the team (and us) can relax a little. Just a little, though.
#WorldCup #ENGvCRO

Blazing run from Barcola and France catches an overly-aggressive setup from Senegal out flat and the counter makes them pay.
Barcola knew Mendy was rushing and cleverly chipped him.
#FRASEN #WorldCup #fedifc

Big save from Mendy and a bold decision to rush the shot and close down the angle. Really good goalkeeping, but also at the risk of being fully-committed. Good read and it pays off. 👏
#FRASEN #WorldCup #fedifc

France finally finds a way through. They were knocking at the door for the past 10 minutes, mostly via the brilliance of Olise. His weighted pass was sublime and Mendy couldn't rush this one.
#FRASEN #WorldCup #fedifc

#WorldCup #Soccer #Football #USMNT
Top notch officiating.
"We misidentified the Yellow Card recipient"
No, No you didn't. You called it on the WRONG DAMNED TEAM.
That said, a yellow card for *a dive* in soccer is something...
...if the next 5 minutes of play didn't contain more than 5 other fake dives.

Neither Maignan nor Mendy look particularly confident. Maignan is lucky Jackson didn't near-post him, while Mendy seems reluctant to come and claim reachable balls and his defenders seem caught out by his hesitations.
#FRASEN #WorldCup

Boom!
#England #WorldCup #FIFA2026

While Mbappe will probably be MOTM for having scored a brace, Olise was the difference maker. The tactical tweak to drop him back into a slightly reserved position allowed his vision and passing to take over. He was incredible.
#FRASEN #WorldCup

Huge decision by the referee and VAR. I honestly don't know what the right decision should have been, but I was leaning towards penalty. When the referee was called to the screen, I was sure that's how it would go.
No penalty. 🤷
#FRASEN #WorldCup

How. Many. Chances?
#ENGvCRO #WorldCup

Instant impact. Lukaku puts the pressure on, but it will be an OG ultimately.
#BELEGY #WorldCup #fedifc

Belgium look toothless. No shots on target and no corners. They should be better. Can they?
#BELEGY #WorldCup #fedifc

Yep that'll do for the opener. England weren't perfect, good enough maybe but it was a bit too close for comfort at times. Still, it puts them in a good position to get out of the group stages. Roll on the next games!
#WorldCup #England #FIFA2026

Fascinating to watch Belgium adjust. Doku now liberated to wander to the right side to try to find better opportunities. Egypt's right flank had done well to double him without real fear of exposing other options.
#BELEGY #WorldCup

Very reckless challenge. Easy yellow, at minimum. Could have been red because of the scissoring action. Referee doesn't even call a foul. It's on the side where the AR is in position at the half line, so he cannot assist in correcting a clear oversight. Egypt very fortunate there.
#BELEGY #worldcup

That was an extraordinary last five minutes. There was some deep magic keeping the ball out of the Croatian net, I tell you.
#ENGvCRO #WorldCup

Two crossbars for Ecuador and they really should be ahead. Unlucky.
#civecu #worldcup #fedifc

I shouted “oh my!” on Nakamura’s corker of a shot. Struck it so purely back to the near post and it’s back on.
#nedjpn #worldcup #fedifc

Oh come on England, you're going to need to do much better with the set pieces if you're going to get anywhere in this tournament. #England #WorldCup #ENGvCRO

The Dutch have so much talent on the roster, but they didn’t look very dynamic in the first half. Japan’s back five and compactness in the middle are stifling and they look dangerous on the counter.
#nedjpn #worldcup #fedifc

Not hard to see why Yan Diomande is being courted by so many clubs (including #LFC). Really looks dangerous on the dribble and his directness is creating opportunities.
#civecu #worldcup

I was just thinking about Japan’s futile efforts with aerial crosses and then they find a thumping header, slightly deflected, on a late corner. Deserved and now the criticism can focus on the Dutch decision to clamp down and defend for the last 25 minutes.
#nedjpn #worldcup

Wow, Qatar draws level deep into stoppage time. Quality cross and a thumping header.
Switzerland have been far better, but wasteful. Massive point for Qatar.
#QATSUI #worldcup #fedifc

Two gorgeous passes, the first even better than the assist.
This formation is the absolutely the right setup for #USMNT
#USAPAR #worldcup

Gio moved just laterally enough to drag the defenders into unsighting the keeper. 🧠 Then a tasty, tasty outside of the boot finish. 🧑‍🍳
#USMNT #usapar #worldcup

What a gorgeous step through by Balogun, followed by a decisive cut back and cool finish! 🤩
But fortunate in the tackle’s bounce, but he won’t care.
#USMNT #usapar #worldcup

A host country always has a bit more energy, but my god the #USMNT work rate is incredible. Out of possession, they are closing down Paraguay and turning them right back over. Dream start.
#USAPAR #worldcup…

Wow! Canada with beautiful combination passing that should have been a goal. Somehow, they were robbed by an incredible (and fortunate!) clearance.
#CANBIH #WorldCup #fedifc

Not sure this is offside. #USMNT
#USAAUS #worldcup #fedifc

Wasted chance by Balogun. Should have been the dagger.
#USMNT #usaaus #worldcup #fedifc

Great goal! What a driving shot by Ashour to the near post and even Courtois' insane wingspan cannot reach it.
Assisted by Salah, with great vision to find the opening across the grain of the box. #LFC
#BELEGY #WorldCup

Oh come on that's not fair #Mexico. If you've got Jesus in your team of course you're going to win! #WorldCup #FIFA2026

The #LFC connection of Gravenberch to Virgil. Beautiful ball in and nice reverse header against the grain. Recycled from a set piece, but fair to say that the Dutch also started the half with more energy.
#nedjpn #worldcup

I know it genuinely is going to be extremely hot in some of the US stadiums but I can't avoid the feeling that these "hydration breaks" are also incredibly convenient for US TV networks to feed their incessant advert habit.
#WorldCup #FIFA2026

Don't see how this is a red card for #MEX and how in any way it's DOGSO.
