England are gonna be absolutely gassed for that Norway game tho ngl

what a phenomenal game Bellingham with two brilliant goals on the counter, and denying a certain goal at the other end two penalties, one red card England with an all-time defensive effort, truly the masters of the bus park Mexico being pushed along by the entire Azteca that's fucking football

...I'm gonna say it football won today

jeez taking Kane off is a ballsy move at this point if for some reason they don't close it out

boutta be 10 mins of added time not even kidding

Dan Burn is a Very Large Man

There will be a minimum of 3 Days Extra Time

England giving us their finest display of the classic English pastime of double-decker bus parking rn

it honestly doesn't matter what happens the rest of the world cup after we have been treated to This Game

the one time I think we ALL need a hydration break holy crap

legitimately anything could happen in the next 20 mins more red cards? sure more penalties? very possibly stoppage time winner? I'd almost put money on it at this point

This is an insane 3 party game between ENG MEX and the Ref

ok this is legitimately the most ridiculous game of football ever

it is impossible to post about this game because something else happens before your finish the last thought

commentator on a weird one here saying this will ice the game? has he been watching a different game lmao

something something where does English power lie

Ochoa iconic behaviour tbh

ok but the fact the final is at fucking MetLife and not the Azteca is criminal

the last 10 minutes have been genuinely some of the most absurd football i have ever seen

this game gone from 'mmm feeling a bit sleepytime' to 'holy shit holy shit what is happening' very quickly

QUIÑONESSSSS

oh... oh Mexico... that's rough

nm supporting the ref in this one

fitting of Melbourne to celebrate Norway's success with a morning of ungodly cold

The true reward of Norway advancing is that we get at least one more match to hear the Telemundo announcer say "Oscar Bobb" every few seconds.

You simply can’t be seen attempting to talk shit to a guy who is winning, laughing at you, and, crucially, taller than you

From the Telemundo broadcast just now by the commentary team during a slow-mo replay of the goal and a shot of Haaland with his hair down: "This is a perfect goal. The ball didn't touch anything." In exaggerated, gravely, dramatic voice: "TERMINATOR"

I think the red card was not really there but holy shit, doing this because of a Trump phone call is fkn blatantly corrupt. Belgium have every right to protest this to the nth degree.

ok lmao that is the softest penalty ever

I still dont think Brazil has ever truly recovered from the 7-1 tbh

the giant norwegian cyborg is a problem

SEVEN goals in your first ever world cup is insane man, let alone having played only 5 games so far

Haaland is so completely ridiculous, I love him

this is the most casual and relaxed goal you will ever see to beat BRAZIL at a WORLD CUP lol

my favourite thing about Norway is that they have a player named Oscar Bobb amidst all the Haalands, Ødegaards and Schjelderups

iconic, in his lane, thriving

"Oscar Bob"

Nyland playing the game of his life, I beg the rest of this Norwegian team to make it worthwhile

should be up in the Louvre ASAP

anyway i just bloody love World Cup football hey, nothing like it

I hope so many more of the smaller footballing nations take a leaf out of Cabo Verde's book (looking at a certain team who lost earlier this morning tbh) you can defend strongly and doggedly while not also undermining your own attacking football

For folks that don't watch football much. It's not that Capo Verde, a tiny nation, managed to make it this far. It's that they made every team work for it. They weren't the classic minnow who played negative football and scraped by. They were equals to Argentina today. Incredible. Bravo. A classic.

I'm going to be cringe: No matter what happens , Cape Verde are winners.

OH MY GOD SIDNEY LOPES CABRAL REMEMBER THE NAME

Vozinha is superhuman, how is this man 40

oh well we're a good enough team to have taken more initiative and won it in 120 mins, but we maintain a frustrating tendency to sit back despite actually possessing attacking quality nowadays (Toure, Irankunda, Bos, Metcalfe, Volpato) Egypt not undeserving tbh, and very happy for Salah
