World Cup 2018 countdown!!!!

[Mark TKO]

Not liking the fact finishing second in our group looks better on paper for the draw.

You should always keep the winning momentum going but it's a tough one

We have to keep winning. An easier draw just postpones the inevitable surely? If we want to win it we will have to beat the likes of Brazil and meeting them earlier is probably better sooner than later. It's also better to go out on our shield than get stuffed by some relative minnow.

So Belgium's B team are better than our B team.

That may work out for us if we are able to beat Colombia, Switzerland/Denmark and get into the semi final of the world cup.

I don't know what to think after that. At least we played to win even if we did not play with a winning team. If that makes sense. Hard like you say to judge a team when the majority of those who played tonight will be on the bench for much of however long we have left at the tournament. Switzerland look like the trickiest of those three and they should not even be here with their handball against Ireland. Can be dirty bastards too but hopefully VAR will nullify that. Bring on Columbia if they play like they have so far.

You guys (England) made out pretty well, I think.

Yes, both Belgium and England played with a lot of subs, trying to save their stars from injury in a meaningless game.

Yes, both teams of subs played to win. It was still a competitive match.

Yes, England now goes to the arguably weaker side of the bracket, and faces Colombia, which played poorly today and may have lost James Rodriguez.



You guys should be happy.

Yes we should but too many years of things kicking us in the balls have made us cautious.

[TitoFan]

Don't blame you there. Still, it seems a pretty good path on paper this time around. Get past Colombia, and you very well could be seeing Spain in the semis.



Interesting Potential WC Finals Matchups:

Spain - Portugal (The Iberian Showdown)

England - Argentina (Falklands - The Rematch)
