Reminded me so much of the prime VvD ping to TAA, then cross to Firmino/Mane to head the ball in.

Their wide player had so so much space and unfortunately for us produced a peach of a cross
Do like how they keep showing the obviously onside/offside ones but that one that was dubious was no.. trust me bro.

We still have not heard anything about that “offside”, have we?
Or rather, “not offside”.
They released this but no automated one for some reason. My theory is the did a Diaz but they reviewed the first which was marginal and the system said onside and they went yeah and only when they realised there were two did they cover it up.
That was never a foul
Just like PGMOL, make the rule up whenever and wherever they want.

Surman has been good for NZ on and off the ball
As much as I would talent spot the issue is you find out they play for Motherwell or someone and you think yeah there is probably a reason for that.
Surman is Portland Timbers and they seem to leak a lot in the MLS (I took a soft spot for them because that guy cuts a bit of wood every time they score).
He’s probably more used to the conditions
Prior to Motherwell he was on loan from a Danish second division club to an Austrian second division club. Maybe Motherwell is his level.

That Iranian keeper has balls of steel with 2 minutes added time to go to get around Wood.
What an unexpected exciting match. Well done to Iran and the Kiwis.

The orange turd is producing more orange turds in an unexpectedly expedited pfashion due to this. They’re afraid Iran will not take too kindly to the alternate version of rheir flag being flown prominently at matches. The arseholes lost any moral authority whatsoever that they may have had before by giving Trump the FIFA peace prize.

Not too sure I have heard of a manager being sacked mid-World Cup before. Spain sacked Lopetegui before their first game in 2018, but that was before they had even played so not sure if that counts.
