Yeah Jude Bellingham was asked if he had a message for the people at home in his post-match interview and said "have another shot and tell your boss you're not coming in" :lol:

After clicking on the link, HVC gave us I have been getting a bunch of Instagram clips, which are convincing me at HVC is right.  Argentina only wins because FIFA rigs it.  Everyone on Instagram is saying it so it must be true.  :D

Not only because FIFA, but they lend a helping hand. Think of it as FIFA continuing maradona's legacy :lol:

Wonder how the numbers would change in Europe based on broadcast hours.

Further to this instagram fervently wants me to know that Mac Allister covered his mouth while yelling at the Egyptian staff and should be suspended as per the new established rules.

Not related to that but I've seen a fair bit of comment that the Egyptian coach tried to initiate the anti-racism protocol because of something and the ref didn't stop the game which I think is what's supposed to happen.

FIFA thought they were making it too obvious so give the assistant VAR position to a Uruguay ref :P

I'm guessing Mbappe thought it was a soft penalty, and decided to just tap the ball back to the goalie.

Waiting there for a minute didn't help.

I wonder if they go back to the start of the attack when checking for penalties.  As we saw with Egypt, they'll disallow the goal if the attack started with a foul a minute ago.  Do they disallow a penalty if the attack starts with a foul?

HVC

Depends who's playing  :lol:
