Our World Cup round-up pod is now live on YouTube! The tournament highlights. The best players. The England conversation. THAT Final 🙄 Watch Mike, Myles and Dave have their say 👇🏻 youtu.be/UWIR8qkLu8I?... #FIFAWorldCup #WorldCup

Who's that twat from Argentina? Oh yeah, it's all of them, every single one of their players. Well done Spain.

What a disgrace the Argentina team is. Fuck them. Pieces of shit. They were outplayed by a vastly superior team. Reacting like that tells you everything you need to know about them. Got away with so much this tournament and now losing like this? Embarrassing.

We eulogised Cristiano and Messi for so long. I just wish they'd retired a few years ago. I hate what they've both become.

FIVE MINUTES added to a fifteen minute half??!

If I'm cheering on current and ex-City players Rodri, Ferran Torres, Laporte, as well as bloody Cucurella, then you must understand how deeply I hate Argentina.

RULE THAT FUCKER OUT YA CUNTS!!

VAMOOOOSSSS!!! 🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸

The hell is going on here? Am I missing some assault on Otamendi that the camera didn't pick up?

You just love to see karma on the football pitch 😏

Shithousery World Champions for sure. Actual, deserved World Champions? Please, no. Not like this.

Half-time shows in football?

¡Vamos España! 🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸

Say what you like about the England squad, but how Malo Gusto and Mike Maignan are in the France squad is insane.

Kane and Bellingham must be fuming watching this goal-fest unfold. Could've been stat padding heaven for the golden boot.

Tuchel failing to even acknowledge he made a mistake here. Well, if England needed a lightning rod, he's made himself the prime conductor. I'm surprised Kane stopped short of saying what we're all thinking - the coach cost his players the chance of a World Cup Final.

How the fuck are there no cards at all for Argentina??

This certainly paints a picture

France got progressively worse tonight but let's not take anything away from how technically excellent Spain were. Deschamps had no answer to their control, passing, tempo and possession. Absolutely none. It really exposed Deschamps' limitations as a coach.

I'll be honest, I scoffed at a defence containing Cucurella, Laporte and Porro. But they have my humble apologies - they've been incredible.

I must admit, I've massively underrated Mikel Oyarzabal. Big game player and a fantastic finisher.

Norway are lucky Madueke has been poor. England are lucky Sørloth has been poor. I'd say this was pretty finely poised!

Absolutely buzzing for Lammens. But you can't help but feel gutted for Courtois.

No idea what to expect from Andrey Santos. The Chelsea circus always skews how good a player really is. But it's something. The fee isn't mental, I hope the wages aren't either. A hungry young player with a lot to prove. I'd still love Tchouameni though! #mufc www.nytimes.com/athletic/742...

Six teams out of the eight remaining at this World Cup are from UEFA. 🇫🇷 France 🇪🇸 Spain 🇧🇪 Belgium 🇳🇴 Norway 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 England 🇨🇭 Switzerland And they've all got a chance - except maybe Switzerland, who look bang average.

For a World Cup round of 16 match, that was so incredibly mediocre!

Saying that, playing Argentina is essentially playing FIFA. Not sure I'd back England against the world football governing body.

I rate Norway higher than Colombia, Switzerland and Argentina. Norway will be tough opponents for England. The whole game will feel like a high level Premier League game. Beat them, and I'd feel confident against the teams I've seen tonight.

I missed Argentina-Egypt cos of work. At first I thought "how did they throw away a 2-goal lead?". Just watched the highlights, and it's clear. If this isn't a massive fix, I don't know what is. Corruption in plain sight. An inexplicably disallowed goal, then a clear pen not given? Come on.

I didn't manage to stay up and hate watch the USA-Belgium game. But needless to say, I'm glad the Belgians absolutely smashed them. The Balogun nonsense has definitely united Europeans on this one!

Added time lottery - how many minutes you guessing? I'm going 10.

This ref has officially lost control. Game will be a free-for-all for Mexican shithousery now.

My nerves, man! This game! Aside from Quansah's naivety, the lads have been superb.

2 - Jude Bellingham is the first player to score two goals at the Estadio Azteca in a FIFA World Cup game since Diego Maradona in 1986 against Belgium in the semi-final. There were just 98 seconds between his two strikes. Lightning.

Incredibly naive foul from Saka, that.

Bellingham absolutely holding his own here so far - even before the goals. Incredible half!

It took a VAR check for a blatant penalty for this ref to finally act on something. A mental amount of leniency in this game so far! Mbappé scores from the penalty spot to make it 1-0.

It's past 1am in the UK, my eyes are bleary. And it *looks* like Argentina 2-2 Cape Verde. Am I hallucinating?!

Cape Verde equalise, let's see how FIFA responds. All eyes on the ref now 🔎

England's most likely World Cup path, should they somehow overcome Mexico in the Azteca: QF - Brazil 🇧🇷 SF - Argentina 🇦🇷 Final - France 🇫🇷

Beautiful control and finish from Messi 🔥 But how about that pass from Licha?!?

Another African side through. This time for Africa?

Some very questionable penalty shootout decisions from Popovic. Surely every one of them has messed up the psychology of that Australian dressing room somehow. He should really resign immediately. Awful.

Fair play to Lucas Herrington. 18 years old. It took a lot of bollocks to take a pen in the World Cup knockouts. I could never. Respect.

Watkins for Bellingham and so 2 up front. Saka for Madueke. Mainoo for Rice and get him pinging through balls forward.

Why's Spence positioned at CB when the pass is played? Where's the positional awareness from Konsa and Guehi? How is Pickford being beaten at his near post?

I'm pleased that it's other clubs paying over the odds in transfer fees and wages this summer, and not United. And why free up so much in wages (i.e. from letting Casemiro go) only to whack it all back on 1 or 2 players? Don't underestimate how much salary imbalance affects club harmony.

This fella 🔥 👇🏻 Michael Olise. What a player. And what an assist for France's 3rd goal against Sweden. Unstoppable 🇫🇷

Isak needs to bury his chances tonight.

£130m for Anderson. £85m for Fernandes. The market for midfielders has never been more inflated. But I genuinely think that's in large part down to United needing midfielders as well. I'm actually fine with us not paying these kinds of fees. We've been down that path all too often.
