Pablo Matera is not captain material, he never was. He's just grumpy, which is misconstrued as being passionate about his team.

No fucking way, are Argentina wearing a kit that is VERY similar to the Hand of God kit?!?!?!?

We're our own worst enemies here, and yet it's fair to say that we're not getting the rub of the green (for all the good it would have done). #NZLvIRE

Grown Ups 2. Early cheap laughs followed by an hour and a half of infuriating frustration. I regretted not walking out.

File alongside "Oh, is daddy babysitting while mammy is away this evening?" No, daddy is parenting.

Oscar-winning Irish actress Brenda Fricker, best known for her roles in My Left Foot and Home Alone 2: Lost In New York, has died aged 81, her agent said

England have won 0 (zero) major tournaments when Ed Sheeran has performed for the squad. Something to think about moving forward.

This is a massive own goal from the Peppa Pig social media team. 😂😂😂 www.instagram.com/p/Da1BeK9pb7...

N – Nightly routine: Before heading to bed, unplug non-essential electronics, clear your exit paths, and close internal doors. ​A – Action plan: Practice a home escape drill with everyone in the house so there is no confusion in an emergency. ​The Golden Rule: Never let your defence down.

In the midst of all the excitement, Ireland have named their team to take on New Zealand this weekend.

That's 3 or 4 times in this tournament where a team prioritised the defence and sought to hold onto a lead, only for Argentina to press the attack and win the game. Spain will learn from this.

The riot police better be on standby.

OH!!!!!! Six defenders on the field and you still let one in. England have 2 subs left to help revert to an attacking game.

In all fairness, that was a decent goal by Clare Balding.

Joanne Cantwell: "What did we just watch?" Me: 45 minutes of shit-kicking!!!

It was a big decision for FIFA to make this match determined by number of fouls rather than goals, but it’s definitely had an impact #ENGARG

You'd think that absolutely nothing could unite the football fans of England and Argentina. But we've found it: the Hydration Break. They're all booing it! #ENGvARG

Just think about it, a country that's known for its horrible fans with its economy in the toilet, a series of domestic racism issues, a far-right presence and a theatrical soap opera for politics, vs Engl... Arg... ...sorry what was the question again?

Biffy Clyro.

Why does it look like Trossard has just seized power through a coup?

Spot the Oasis fan.

France can have no complaints about that result. Spain nullified them brilliantly, but collectively the French were way below par as well.

Hydration break #FraSpa

Did I want more? Obviously! But it was a brilliant gig nonetheless. Hopefully System of a Down come back to Ireland some day.

Hi all, I'm in a really bad place right now. Not mentally or physically. I'm in Tottenham.

Ah no!!! He's obviously best known for his role in the Jurassic Park franchise, but I thought his performance in the Omen III was incrediblt good (in an otherwise mediocre film).

And knowing our luck, we STILL won't qualify for it. 🇮🇪

Sure look, we never had a chance anyway. 🩵💙 Although Mayo how have the opportunity to do the funniest thing against all odds.

UP THE DUBS!!! 🩵💙

There's no love lost between these two teams ahead of the semi-final.

T-Rex is down injured after he's knocked to the ground by (checks notes)...his own teammate???

"don't you know who I play golf with?" #NorEng

All of a sudden, a dull and unspectacular game has come to life with a blast.

"So close no matter how far..." 🇮🇪 #M72Dublin

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Saliba vs Merino. I can't wait!

Thank you for the clarification. 🙏🏻

A sideways observation in the middle of all the football: those thicker stripes on the sleeves of most of the Adidas kits are ROTTEN. #ESPvBEL

Tackled the player off the ball. Disgraceful move, that player in the black shirt should be sent off. ...where's the ref gone? 😉 #ESPvBEL

...sorry what???

I genuinely don't know what the VAR was looking for as it was an stonewall penalty, but the delay clearly impacted Mbappé. I'm not questioning anyone's impartiality, but it's not a great look when the entire team of officials is Argentinian. #FRAMAR

RIP bonnie tyler. lotta folks tonight are gonna learn the extent to which 'total eclipse of the heart' is outside their karaoke range

Another year wiser (and wider!) for me and most of the world gets brightened up for it.

Colombia v Switzerland being referred to as Charlie v The Chocolate Factory.

If Egypt win this then they have Cape Verde to thank for rattling Argentina.

What the hell is this? They should have lost by 30.

Cheerio Ronnie!
