So many meaningless games though - like in the group stage you have to be really poor not to qualify now that fifa have magic ed up more games £££

So far I've watched most of the opening match and the first half of highlights of Morocco v Brazil and not been impressed. The BBC has been on about Vini's 'Wonder Goal' but it wouldn't win goal of the week most weeks in the Premier League. In fact it is becoming a trope, wrong foot winger cut back inside the full back from the byline and leather it in the hope it hits the top corner.

Well done Scotland, and Morocco and Qatar and Australia.

Based on the first two games that could be a fascinating group.

2 very average teams but 3 points and we are top of the league.

Blimey, Scotland could win this game

Good game, that. Fair result, I thought.

The number of times I’ve seen “FIFA” flashed on my screen during this game suggests that this FIFA bunch are good people.

Hash gets an assist!

Surely in these days of AI it should be possible to watch a game of football with Alan Shearer’s voice completely obscured.

Brazil are still Brazil

Lol good goal

Brazil looking pretty abysmal so far

Morocco score a Brazilian goal against Brazil

Dunstable town and Banstead both male. One at old plough lane against Everton? and one at selhurst femail

Who remembers the streaker at Hayes and Yeading in 2008?

Qatar’s first ever point at a World Cup finals. Switzerland found out again for being too neutral?

Oh dear Switzerland

Maybe the last couple of minutes pip last night but the Bath fly half must be really pissed off that he didn't get the chance of a drop goal

Till the feed cuts out

Nice part of the world, too. Great to have a town centre stadium

Another great rugby semi-final, not quite as good as last night but still 10 minutes to go

And that old girl had a pop at us for making to much noise 1 plod loved the game he stood next to us

Think there were some hot air balloons in the sky plus Micky Fernandes, a fan, playing for us in midfield
