DrewDon Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 In all seriousness, the inclusion of dross like this Saudi Arabia team undermines the reputation of the World Cup. It is surely in grave danger of being regarded as a diddy tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's Mexican wave territory. I remember Scotland fans doing the Mexican wave when 2-0 up against Sweden in 1990. I remember being there and thinking "WTF" after the shambles against Costa Rica the week before! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Just in from work. How's it been? The Saudis ball retention abilities are on a par with any Scottish club side playing away from home in Europe. Been not too bad to watch, Russia will probably struggle to go through, but fair play to them for not freezing under the pressure of being the home nation and having not won in their last 7 games.

Zetterlund Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 There's something quite pleasing about a cross coming in and being thunderc**ted into the net by some massive b*****d with his head. Sometimes feel crossing the ball is a dying art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 So, Russia maybe a bit better than expected, or Saudi just really, really shite? This goal difference might come in handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotThePars Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Russia are strolling this. Feel like all their goals are the sort of shit I score in FIFA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russia's attitude has been good and they've played a high press. Saudi Arabia are honking at the back of midfield and their centre halves could do with keeping some shape, so they've been badly exposed several times. The Saudis have shown some decent technique but without going anywhere, and their confidence seemed to dip after the first goal. It's cigars time now though.
