I guess England saw the USA had scored and then decided it was no longer worth it to throw the game to Wales.

Iran is doing much better in this half so far

I like our dude accidentally kicking the ball out and then dramatically mouthing "FUCK" on international TV.

Don't worry, it will be censored in Iran, insh'Allah.

That was a close one 

I am never ceased to be amazed how slow time moves when you have a lead in this game and how fast it moves when you are behind. It defies the laws of physics.

Yep, now. I wish Fernando Santos would leave his position after the tournament but now he is probably at the helm till the Euro 2024.
Bento will probably get the boot if his squad gets thrashed by Portugal, or even just beaten.
Jury still out on Queiroz.

There are 3 Portuguese coaches (Queiroz in Iran, Paulo Bento in S. Korea and Santos in Portugal itself). Two other countries have 3 coaches at the WC, Argentina (coaching Ecuador, México and Argentina) and Spain (Qatar, Belgium and Spain).

Keeping alive the proud Welsh tradition of being beaten down and subjected by the English.

Well except that time they seized power in 1485.
