Referees love to blow it dead in the air. Cruelly keep hope alive for the trailing team, only to then kill it off at the ball's apogee.
#WorldCup #fedifc

Entertaining final minutes as Switzerland holds on to win the group. Canada was great for 25 minutes, but unfortunately for them, the game is 90
#SUICAN #WorldCup #fedifc

I don't see how in the world this call is against Ghana. Ridiculous decision.
#ENGGHA #WorldCup #fedifc

hello red yellow time for an orange...
#FediFC
#WorldCup

Clever Iranian free kick, but correctly disallowed for offsides.
#BELIRN #worldcup #fedifc

Fantastic ball in from Oyarzabal to a sliding Yamal. Spain have started sharply.
#ESPKSA #worldcup #fedifc

Wow, Uruguay had seized control, but they’ve made a mess out of things at the back and now we’re level. Quality finish before anyone can recover.
#urucpv #worldcup #fedifc

Since conceding the second, Canada have been greatly improved, largely because of the impact of their subs.
Fantastic ball across and a fine finish to pull one back.
The last 20 minutes should be very entertaining.
#SUICAN #WorldCup

The first 75' were a pretty sloppy affair, but the last 20' have been action packed. Still sloppy, mind you, but action packed.
#SUIBIH #WorldCup #fedifc

A bit unlucky not to finish, but also Ronaldo isn't what he once was.
#PORCOD #WorldCup #fedifc

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

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

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

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.
#FRASEN #WorldCup #fedifc

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

this may be englands best game in a world cup match.
#FediFC
#WorldCup2026 #eng #mexico

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

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

It's supposed to be "the beautiful game", but that half was anything but.
#ENGARG #WorldCup #fedifc

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

Spence's tackle is as good as a goal. Wow!
(Will Tuchel say anything nice to him? 😆)
#ENGARG #WorldCup #fedifc

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

Tuchel blew it. Parking the bus is fine, but so very early.
The momentum charts are bananas. Absolute folly.
#ENGARG #WorldCup #fedifc

Pickford has had a really strong #WorldCup
Great save down low and, better still, pushed the rebound away from danger.
#ENGARG #fedifc

Another huge save. Mac Allister is so good at getting his head on crosses, but Pickford is quick on the reaction save.
#ENGARG #WorldCup #fedifc

That's why you don't Southgate the final minutes. The sub to put Burn on made sense, but O'Reilly for Rice did not. Now what?
#ENGARG #WorldCup #fedifc

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

Lol, what is Deschamps even saying to the fourth official? They got absolutely bossed.
#FRAESP #WorldCup #fedifc

7 minutes feels like a lot. Not that France will capitalize, but that it seems too much for the half we've seen.
#FRAESP #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

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

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!
#ESPKSA #worldcup

I wanted to see the last free kick played out, but you can’t really argue that a draw isn’t the right result.
Cape Verde shows again a stoutness of heart and a collective willingness to do the difficult work. 👏
#URUCPV #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

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

Thought it was a foul in realtime, but no foul on the replay. Hell of a shot.
#NORENG #fedifc #worldcup

Hell of a finish by Bellingham. Not sure if Gordon really saw it or played to an area.
#NORENG #fedifc #worldcup

Penalty. 🗡️
#NORENG #worldcup #fedifc

Embolo should see a second yellow for simulation.
#argsui #worldcup #fedifc

Spilled rebound goals are en vogue. They all count the same.
#NORENG #worldcup #fedifc

Mac Allister gets on headers far more often than a player of his size should. Fantastic aerially.
#ARGSUI #worldcup #fedifc

Stupid decision to dive. No question at all that it was simulation. Embolo has so much talent but he’s messy.
#argsui #worldcup #fedifc

Disallowed on the Haaland push, but I think Anderson embellished the fall. Looking for it.
Stays level.
#NORENG #worldcup #fedifc

I’m not convinced England can go the distance. I’m also not convinced they can’t. It’s a team I just don’t have a good sense of how good they are. Maybe they don’t either?
#NORENG #worldcup #fedifc

All or nothing press up top got caught out and the driving run by Balogun causes the OG. Great start for the #USMNT
#USAAUS #worldcup

I’ve never seen a referee handing out yellow cards like a priest sprinkling holy water
💦 💦 💦 🟨 🟨 🟨
#USMNT #usaaus #worldcup #fedifc

Let today be the antidote to yesterday’s dull games. Off to a great start already and Switzerland vs Columbia looks appetizing.
#worldcup #fedifc

One goal pulled back makes it an anxious 10 minutes plus stoppage to hold on for Egpyt. I hope they do.
#argegy #worldcup #fedifc

He is simply the GOAT. Not a spectacular game from him, but over 90 minutes? The quality bubbles up eventually. 2-2 just like that.
#argegy #worldcup #fedifc

Did they just say VAR didn't have a look?!?
I don't know that it's a penalty as there was certainly some embellishment, but to not have a look at all?
#SUICOL #WorldCup #fedifc

Ugh. Quality cross and header back against the grain. I am gutted for Egypt, who really deserved better.
Credit to Argentina, who did not quit even when it looked dire.
#argegy #worldcup #fedifc

VAR review bails out Argentina. It was a foul, but a long distance from goal and if the referee doesn’t give it on the field? I don’t like it, even if technically correct.
#ARGEGY #WorldCup #fedifc

Spain reaching the quarterfinals without conceding at all? Very impressive.
#ESP #WorldCup #fedifc

Despite the abundance of talent on the field, it's been a fairly dull match.
#PORESP #WorldCup #fedifc

Great save by Costa on the second shot. Spain looking dangerous. 0.8 xG already.
#PORESP #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

PGMOL caliber penalty decision.
#mexeng #worldcup #fedifc

Nyland has been brilliant. What a save! (again)
#BRANOR #WorldCup #fedifc

Nyland having a very strong first half. Norway will need it!
#BRANOR #WorldCup #fedifc

Massive save from Alisson on a free rip from Odegaard inside the box.
#BRANOR #WorldCup #fedifc

That Halaand scores that header over Gabriel makes it all the sweeter.
#BRANOR #WorldCup #fedifc

Alisson Becker doing Alisson Becker things. Huge save against a strong moment for Norway.
#BRANOR #WorldCup #fedifc

Would have been a massive start for Norway, but the offside decision is correct and the goal struck off.
#BRANOR #WorldCup #fedifc

Game on again! The Azteca will go from shocked to boisterous again. Box scrap, but it counts all the same. 2-1
#mexeng #worldcup #fedifc

Quansah sees red. 🟥
In my view the ball causes his leg to stay high. Not certain I agree with the decision.
#mexeng #worldcup #fedifc

Ajer is late on a great pass and VAR finds it a penalty. I thought so live, although I thought Ajer got a tiny piece of the ball.
SAVED! Feels like justice to me.
#BRAPAR #WorldCup #fedifc

Mexico will want to get into halftime only down 2-0. They’ve been mostly good, but England may have finally woken up and Mexico’s midfield have not done well defensively at all.
#mexeng #worldcup #fedifc…

Textbook example of a referee losing control of a game. It will get worse.
#PARFRA #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

Still 9 minutes to dream, Cape Verde.
#argcpv #worldcup #fedifc

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

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

Cape Verde level it in ET!!!! 🤯
What a shot by Cabral, absolutely perfect bend into the far corner. 😍
#argcpv #worldcup #fedifc

Cape Verde are consistently frustrating their opposition. Spectacular team defense, but that back four works as such a comprehensive unit. Rotations and communication are impressive.
#ARGCPV #worldcup #fedifc

Hats off to Cape Verde. Phenomenal performance. Phenomenal team. Absolutely brilliant and we are both richer for having witnessed it and poorer for their departure.
🇨🇻 👏 🫡
#argcpv #worldcup #fedifc

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

Incredible tackle by Van de Ven.
#NEDMAR #worldcup #fedifc

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

What an incredible pass and juke, followed by an equally incredible save!
#nedmar #worldcup #fedifc

Gakpo! The emotions overwhelming in this time of extreme personal hardship.
#NEDMAR #worldcup #fedifc

Van Dijk closing you down has to be terrifying. Fantastic tackle, in a game full of really good tackles.
#nedmar #worldcup #fedifc

Pretty spectacular cross and header. 👀 😮
Feels appropriate to be level, as Morocco have been the more dangerous team.
#nedmar #worldcup #fedifc

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

Poch needs to instruct the squad to rotate their shin guards to the back of their calves. Referee not cracking down on late cynical challenges. A bit chippy.
If memory serves, the last head to head had a fight in stoppage time.
#USMNT #usapar

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

I was thinking Portugal had gathered some momentum after the hydration break and that's mostly true. I think I have the timing a bit off, but they've found their footing. More even now.
#PORESP #WorldCup #fedifc

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

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

Phwoah! Don't close down Halaand quickly enough and you're probably going home disappointed again, Brazil. Far too much talent to fail to do the little things.
Start up the rowers!
#BRANOR #WorldCup #fedifc

Halaand or Nyland as MOTM? For most it's Halaand. I think, for me, it's Nyland. Wouldn't argue about either.
Thin PK awarded and a silly moment from Neymar can't overshadow nearly 2 goals prevented.
#BRANOR #WorldCup

Endrick cannot get a good shot off against Nyland, despite being in on goal. Wanted it on his other foot, when any lateral cut against an onrushing goalkeeper would score.
Gorgeous feed from Vinicius Jr.
#BRANOR #WorldCup

Brazil have opted for a very aggressive directness rather than patient build up. And Norway have allowed some rushed counters and will need to avoid overextending (or consider tactically fouling when the rush is on)
#BRANOR #WorldCup

Morocco has been the better team, and I think Koeman has been thoroughly outcoached. The passivity in ET has been essentially waving the white flag and rolling the dice on PKs. The substitutions have been questionable too.
#nedmar #worldcup

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

Nightmare opener for #RSA, going down to 9 players and never really looking very competitive.
#MEXRSA #worldcup #fedifc

Tillman!!!!!!
