    Was it close? I'm getting to where I don't trust how I see anything these days, but it looked pretty clear.

    Granted, not as clear as the last one.

    No, because England wasn't coordinated

    Argentina being very classy and understanding for stopping the match in the offensive third due to a head injury (sarcasm).

    Wow. Someone putting their finger like that in my face is definitely getting a yellow

    Note that the current hero punched someone in the back of the head on purpose during this match

    Was wondering. England doesn't seem to be going crazy over it.

    England getting killed the whole second half on crosses and never solved the problem. That Tuchel press conference is going to be interesting.

    Very marginal, but we’ve seen worse

    Maybe. Want to see another look. Imagine if that was an APP foul via VAR...

    It didn't even look like Spence was looking for it

    Wonder if he rolled his ankle vs being stepped on.

    Maybe that 6pm clinic tonight wasn't such a good idea

    No, because once he didn't get the call there he has to start defending immediately if he can. I really want to see a good replay. He was hobbled. I feel like if he goes down injured there he gets the call. But, again, only saw one angle live, really.

    He'll just blame Elfath.

    Right. This is my basic question. Was he fouled or did something quirky happen on an otherwise fair challenge.

    Will Elfath blow for full time over or under 100:30?

    Agreed, I meant afterwards though, he was in one of the replays questioning a teammate and not yelling at Elfath
