Cape Verde the only unbeaten team in World Cup history

That was a strange game. Can't believe we got four goals out of it. Don't think either team played particularly well

Alternate universe in which England have a front four of Michael Olise, Jamal Musiala, Antoine Semenyo and Harry Kane at this World Cup

Tahith Chong with the Carlos Valderrama hairdo, pure World Cup heritage

Brazil on the ropes here. Morocco need to go for the kill

Hard to work out how Qatar have won the last two Asian Cups when you watch them at the World Cup

Not many positives to take for South Africa, but have liked Mbokazi at LCB. Comfortable on the ball and strong in the tackle

Fear I might never get over how good last night was

Mike Dean really earning his money today

Abandon the match imo, 3-0 Hearts win

How are Hearts fans coping with this? Absolutely agonising and I don't even follow Scottish football

Ismaila Sarr the first Crystal Palace player to reach 20 goals in a season since promotion in 2013. Fantastic achievement

Proper Goodison Park, Dogs of War performance from Everton, this

Got to love Bernardo Silva's transformation from cerebral playmaker to scrappy warrior

Unbelievable technique from Mitoma with his weaker foot

Superb first half between Atletico Madrid and Barcelona. Maybe the best I've seen all season

Italy (Italy!) haven't won a World Cup knockout game since the 2006 final

Lewis Hall has been excellent tonight. Defended well and some really useful surges down the left with and without the ball

Really enjoyable first 45 at Villa Park. Chelsea have played some lovely stuff, but it seems like they've got at least two major mistakes in them per half

Wolves score with their first shot in the 78th minute

Chelsea have been as good in the second half as they were bad in the first. Playing with such intensity, restarting the game quickly from dead balls. Testing last 15 minutes for West Ham

PSG are such a good watch when they're on it. Supreme technical quality + relentless tempo. For once it's the Premier League team that can't deal with the opposition's speed and dynamism

That might be the worst decision I've ever seen on a football pitch. Absolutely insane from Brahim Diaz

Extraordinary end to the AFCON final. Whoever resolves this impasse deserves the FIFA Peace Prize

Off to the Stadium of Light tomorrow for Sunderland vs Palace. Now to check Glasner's press conference for the team news!

Utterly dominant display from Nigeria, who look like the team to beat in Morocco. Restricted Algeria to 0.12 xG & no shots until the 80th minute, and created plenty at the other end

Senegal vs Sudan in Tangier. Four AFCON games in four cities in four days starts here

Apropos of nothing, Bournemouth's games have contained the most goals in the Premier League this season (3.37 per 90). But their home games have contained the fewest (1.89 per 90) #makesuthink

Burnley vs Palace. Not a classic

Tottenham's first shot of the game - and what a shot

What a dreadful first half from Tottenham. Approaching this like they're a League Two team going for a giantkilling

Jean-Philippe Mateta would be in the Golden Boot race if he could actually score one-on-ones

Wonder who will win this

A 30-year-old Tomas Soucek doesn't seem the best candidate for a one-man midfield

Think Peter Drury might be a golf fan

Just another 2-3 transfer windows until Man Utd get it right

Hadn't seen Ao Tanaka play much before tonight. Very impressed!

Jumped on Route One (which is a fine addition to the football podcast line-up) to talk about Crystal Palace's chances in the Conference League podfollow.com/route-one/ep...

The new ROUTE ONE is here: Could Palace's demotion be a blessing in disguise? We ask @gregleafootball.bsky.social. What went wrong for Liverpool? I have an idea... And Bournemouth just spent BIG on a defender. How are they looking this season? Commentator Paul Scott speaks. pod.fo/e/310053

FourFourTwo's unrivalled season preview edition is out today. Includes me on Crystal Palace, but don't let that put you off www.magazinesdirect.com/az-single-is...

Club World Cup averaging five goals per game so far, Infantino vindicated

Please 🙏🦅

Even by their standards, this has been a dismal performance from Tottenham. Every Palace player seems to have five yards of space

How much longer until my brain realises Savinho isn't Riyad Mahrez?

Leicester have been utterly miserable under Van Nistelrooy. Surely goes down as one of the worst managerial performances in PL history

Not a good first 45 from Chelsea. Haven't beaten a top-half team since December 1 - and you can see why

Ismaila Sarr's movement is exceptional. Picks up so many dangerous positions

Guess who watched both Brentford vs Chelsea and the Manchester derby

Bournemouth so sharp without the ball. Tottenham struggling to deal with their press already

If Southampton hold on (which they surely won't), would that be the biggest shock in Premier League history?
