Possible route if we lose against Belgium:
R16: Japan/Senegal
QF: Mexico
SF: Portugal/Croatia
Possible route of England WIN the group:
R16: Japan/Senegal/Poland/Colombia
QF: Brazil/Germany
SF: France/Spain
how do you play it? if Belgium might rotate a lot to think the same way, how does it play out?
England will play it straight I think, I don’t know about Belgium but surely they rest the superstars. It’s the best chance either nation will get for a very long time. IMO Belgium are more likely to do the savvy thing.

world cups are always great.
but yeah this is shaping up. boss kits with some nice retro touches [germany and nigeria, take a bow], stadiums thrown up in towns not even mapped a few years ago, whipping boys, star turns, utter star failures and mad runs in the groups by rando african / asian and south american sides.
just needs the bbc to step up again with their end of tournament montage. they are nearly always good [cast '96 anyone], but last year's will take some topping

Didn't they play Chasing Rainbows on Englands exit and then Walkaway for the tournament end credits montage?
What a time to have been alive.

- There have been 19 penalties taken at the 2018 World Cup 🏆, more than in any other edition in the history of the competition. VAR

If the referees enforced the rule preventing grappling/wrestling in the penalty area in previous World Cups I am guessing it would be the same.

I enjoyed him trying to clap and being unable to make one hand hit the other.
Well not really, I thought it was quite sad.

That was quite disturbing really.
The celebration before that though, was brilliant, he's obviously been getting shit off people all day, fair play for giving it back

Optimal strategy - play absolute all out attack, not much defence - risk losing - as losing has big consolations, but if we do win, try to get big confidence boosting one rather than scraped.?
If we’re drawing, also remember get a few bookings. Shirts off after goal etc.
or simply see where Colombia finish and look to avoid them?
or just win and don't try to game it?
