June 3Jun 3 Author Haiti 4-0 New Zealand First glance this gave be a bit of a fright. Further investigation showed New Zealand haven't won a game in about a year. Still, next up for Haiti is England on Saturday. Edited June 3Jun 3 by faraway saint

June 6Jun 6 Author Haiti played Peru, where Paddington comes from, last night...... Or early this morning.
June 6Jun 6 Read somewhere that Haiti lost both goals at corners. I am sure that Mr Clarke will have seen that too.

June 7Jun 7 Author Morocco v Norway tonight, ko 8:00pm, think I'll tune in as I think Morocco are possibly going to win our group. 🙄

June 10Jun 10 England's friendly against Costa Rica is currently delayed. Who would have thought there might be lightning and torrential rain mid-afternoon in Orlando.....
June 11Jun 11 Author Only watched the first half, Costa Rica were fcuking brutal. I was surprised when I just checked they managed to still have 11 on the pitch by the final whistle although the ref looked as if she was fresh out of "ref school" and was going through the motions. England 3-0 Costa Rica, final score. England don't let many goals in so they'll go far.
June 11Jun 11 Author First up tonight is Mexico v South Africa. I expect a comfortable win for Mexico, 4-0. Then, in the early hours, it's South Korea v Czechia, I fancy the Koreans to edge this 2-1.
June 11Jun 11 Well it all starts today - 48 teams (sheesh) and I reckon we'll all have similar opinions on the 8 to make the QFs. Argentina Brazil England France Germany Holland Portugal Spain I'm going for 7/8 of these teams plus a random diddy team like Morocco - what a palaver. Edited June 11Jun 11 by Bud the Baker
June 11Jun 11 Author 48 years ago today wee Archie scored THAT goal against Holland. Gave us all hope that, somehow after the previous two disastrous games, we could qualify. Didnae last long. 🙄 https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1BM9H412o5/
June 11Jun 11 Author Mexico 1-0 South Africa, blunder between the goalie and defender, some finish. Pity, they played out from defence really well a few times before this. Oh, the boy who scored for Mexico out scored both Toney and Ronaldo in the Saudi league, worth watching.
June 11Jun 11 Drinks break. Mexico the better side. Poor goal to lose. Poor defending then through the goalie.
June 11Jun 11 1-0 half time. Game died a bit after drinks break though Mexico had a couple of chances including hitting the post.

Mexico 1-0 South Africa, half time. Mexico good in short spells, the SA goalies had a couple of good saves and they've hit the post. Apologies @guinness, almost the same post. 🤣 Edited June 11Jun 11 by faraway saint
June 11Jun 11 Author Nice new rule that players have 10 seconds to get off when being substituted. Oh, Mexico 2-0 South Africa
June 11Jun 11 2-0. Scored just before everyone nodded off. Then another water break . Fairly poor game. South Africa have no threat and Mexico had seemed happy with 1-0. Hopefully another couple of goals to ckme.
