Does Matterface know what's going on? Says stricken player is back walking but whole stadium is still silent. Obviously cameras aren't zooming in like the euros so hard to tell.

Yep noted that too, plonker
Thank God he's okay.
Batiston in 82 ?
good of the ref to let argentina try and score before stopping play.
Sam Matterface's 'Owen Hart voice' needs some serious work.
Looked like he was out cold before he hit the ground
Definitely has to go down as the biggest shock in World Cup history IMO. This even tops Korea win against Germany in the last group game of the 2018 World Cup. At least Korea is a decent team with big players like Son. I don't think anyone can even name a player from this Saudi Arabia team. I hope this is a lesson not to underestimate any teams in the World Cup and we shouldn't downplay England's performance yesterday. My goodness.
Biggest upset ever?
Nah that's just bollocks you dont need to lift your knees head height at all
Masvidal Askren
That defender got fecked!
Ref was to busy trying to find some way to award Messi a freekick
No one. They have thoroughly deserved this.
Thank God he's OK.
Magic sponge, wedge of orange and jog it off
It's not just the knee to the face, it's also the reception on the ground. Poor guy
Player decapitated in the box? play on, no problem!
give him a break. they all look the same to him.
Two thumbs up which is good
That's one of the worst clashes I've ever seen on a football pitch. At least he seems to be conscious, thank god.
Anyone got a gift of the keeper wiping out his defender?
Yeah this looked scary. He looked in big trouble on the replay
How Sam Matterface became the main commentator for ITV is beyond me. Biggest downgrade ever going from Clive to him. He's probably the worst commentator in the game.
Hope he is okay. That was bad.
I hope he’s fine and ok.
cracking defending by Saudi
The Saudis took us to the cleaners last game, we barely scraped a 0-1 victory from Kramarić so this has come as no surprise to anyone who watched them play.
Play on until Argnetina score
Tremendous stuff from KSA. Deserved win.
That's the most TV save I've ever seen 
Even that feels soft compared
You do if you want to get extra height, especially when you are running forward.
South Korea beat all of Portugal, Italy and Spain in 2002 (albeit in unique circumstances) so they have a history of it, Saudi Arabia don't really and would've been one of the rank outsiders in betting and general expectations.
They've certainly embraced playing in a near enough home world cup so Poland certainly won't be finding them easy at all.
A great performance by the keeper.

Fair fecks to them. That was some performance. Argentina never showed up and looked like they thought they were going to get an easy win.
Arg don't even pass it with pace let alone run
