Think we need a designated thread for general World Cup 2026 chat. There only seem to be the England and sweepstake ones so far.
Well that opening game got me nodding off nicely. VAR/the laws of the game the talking points as always. Well done FIFA. Not long before the highlights are just a reel of refereeing/VAR decisions.
When does the EFL start ?

Absolute filth from Argentina.
Scenes after the whistle sadly are typical of them.
Not just cheats but bad losers.
Congratulations Spain. |  | | |

Spain almost fell into the trap we did. Two very good chances for Argentina to equalise then it would have been pens and that would have been a travesty if they’d won it.
Martinez kept them in it and he should be pee’d off his team mates did nothing to actually try and win the game. |  | | |

What's happened to Spain's passing. They can't keep hold of the ball. |

But no, they kept their attacking threat so they didn't get swept away. They were always going to come under pressure but didn't panic.
Some of the Argentinians were a f*cking disgrace at the end | | | |

Argentinian footballers being Argentinian after the final whistle. They are an utter disgrace. |
They were neither magnanimous in victory against us nor gracious in defeat today. F#ck off the lot of them. |  | | |

Messi's fan club within FIFA.
Argentina got exactly what they deserved. The same as their attempts on target. |  |

Wrong to make the teams stand around so long while they get their f##ing ceremony sorted. [Post edited 19 Jul 23:27]

Fair play for Rodri fckin him off. Left him looking like a spair prck at an orgy. |  | | |

One of the most classless events I've seen. The Argentinians tactics, their fighting, Infantino's trainers, confused Trump, and that half time show was bollox! Summed up by Ronaldo (fat) as an Uber driver.
Utter shite!! |  |

Yeh it was not a good advert for the sport was it, to put it mildly. Just pleased Spain managed to find a goal before penalties otherwise Martinez would have won it for them. | | | |

Their tactics were a replica of the 1990 final when they also went down to ten men. |  |

I’ve got nothing new to say about Argentina, but it’s definitely worth saying again…what a bunch of cheating, classless, scumbags! So happy Enzo was sent off, racist Chelsea cun*t!
Well done Spain, fully deserved to win. |  | | |

My biggest fear as extra time started was penalties with Spain's shocking record it was going to Argentina for sure IMO.
Nico Williams was incredible ( missed a sitter off his hair of course) and he has to get all the credit for Spain winning it IMO. Also some Spanish player took a certain equalizer off someones toe fair play to him
Ref once again was shocking how Argentina did not finish with 8 or 9 players a mystery .
Even Messi was so far below his level I think beating England was their final
England could have beaten Spain today I believe they would have scores a couple |  | | |

Extraordinary game.
A pasting, just not on the scoreboard.
Delighted for Spain. A really great football Nation now, and a joy to watch.
Disappointed for Messi, but at least he got his World Cup in his career. |  |

Social media is full of everything Argentina have got away with during the tournament. The technology captures it all. Nobody wants their brand of "football". Don't let this happen at the next world cup, stamp it out.
Thank god Spain won it. | | | |

Messi has really gone downhill in my estimation of the last couple of weeks. Now trying to get Cucarella sent off because he put his hand to his mouth for a nano second. Real petulant desperation behaviour |
This. He's no better than the rest of them. Lost all respect for him. | | | |

I don’t think they get called out enough for it by the “pundits”. Shearer talking about @we know how much they want to win…”. Their behaviour on the pitch, when they win and when they lose….it’s embarrassing. | | | |
