He's has a great World Cup.

Why are they still giving out yellow cards for taking your shirt off? :wenger:

5 on 1, typical from Serbia although I expected them to hit a kid or woman in the crowd as well

Did they? I like their teams but reality is that 2 of 5 teams got through (lets see will Cameroon do it). By percentage of teams that got through (compared to their number of spots), only CONCACAF is worse. But CAF got most of extra spots for next WC. That is not right. Success should be rewarded, not mediocrity.
3 AFC teams (Japan, Korea & Australia) went through, they've done very well this time, many thought none will go through.

Concacaf and CAF have both done very badly this WC compared to pre-tournament ratings.

Gaz. Is a Mewling Quim.
The current ratio already has teams from all over the world, having even more CAF, AFC, Concacaf teams ahead of better UEFA teams just makes the competition worse (in terms of quality).
Just watch the Euros then, that’s clearly all you’re interested in. The same boring teams with the same players over and over and over and over and over again :boring:

Well done Cameroon.

Why take his shirt of for the second yellow though?

Yeah but like... A Serb saying it about kosovar Albanians is probably under the realm of racism here ... Though I dunno, Balkan racism just feels different to me than other racism. You expect Balkan racism and it's not a huge shock when it happens basically :lol:
Well Balkan racism doesn't really exist apart from racism against gypsies, that's cuz we're all white and all closely related when it comes to genes. So correct word would probably be nationalism I guess?

Might be totally wrong here, but feels like a lot of teams, possibly more than usual, made wholesome changes for the third match when qualified already. Likely something to do with the world cup in the middle of the season
Feels like a lot of players are holding their fitness to get in when injuries occur etc. Nobody plays themselves in to the first 11 through a dead rubber when the first 11 have already played so well.
It’s why I think Rashford is benched on Sunday

Because goals and celebrations are broadcasted all over the world and you can't see the sponsor if the shirt is off.

If Serbia score, then Cameroon and Switzerland are level on points, goals and goals conceded.

Could it come down to that red card?

Like they're having a battle for who can be the most unpleasant team to rival Uruguay.
