Jude was right, it went in the middle of the goal, decent keeper saves that.

He just isn’t a very good goal keeper and is only there because there is a very poor choice, the 2nd goal is a perfect example, nowhere near the shot that wasn’t far from the middle of the goal, I would be scathing of Ali if he conceded that.

Then there is his temperament, he is like a frog in the box, just lacks calmness.

See, before Argentina got the go-ahead, I was trying to work out who would take the penalties. Bellingham, Kane, but after that I was scratching my head. I suppose Rashford and Toney could have come in for that instead of what they did do - but who would have taken the 5th? The 6th?

They didn’t dominate the 1hf.

The major difference was in how both sides managed the press. And especially the level of energy exerted.

Argentina with composed, technical control.

England with the ball over the top to Gordon and Rogers, and a lot of hard running.

A flurry of England setpieces might have given the facade of domination, but in reality the 1hf was a stalemate.

With Argentina retaining the edge in technical control and dominance in the half spaces.

This has to be a joke, right? :joy:

Kane’s position is bizarre.

Sort of demonstrates why he probably should go but probably won’t.

New York is under a Red level Air Quality advisory just three days away from the Final. It sort of looks like that bank of air will move NE on Saturday, but a shift to a westerly would be quite normal, and that would take some even smokier air right into the NY area

It really would be fitting if the final is played in apocalyptic conditions. Maybe then the winning team could produce a banner protesting about climate change instead of some irrelevant islands.

Messi holding a ā€˜trump is a cunt’ banner would do for me…

Definitely a joke as Pickford was further forward than that due to the times he ran out yelling at someone or something :blush:.

Spain is going to be a warzone after the final.

So many Argentinians here.

We’ve all been there…

You knock off work at 8am after a long shift, swallow that pill some random punter gave you 3 hours earlier, and let the chips fall where they may.
