Good to see THPP and friends are ready for tonight's game.

I hope I'm not one of them mate. I value your comments and friendship here. We can agree to disagree on the secondary things (like this particular World Cup) whilst still having the primary things (NSC, Albion and a love of football as a whole) very much in common. That goes for anyone else...

Hwyl fawr Cymru. :wave:

Brazil's 22 shots with 8 on target and 2 goals. Hit the post and bar as well. A potential QF with Spain looks intriguing already. Serbia were hyped up before the game, but they never laid a glove on Brazil and didn't have a shot on target. Disappointing.

As far as the football's concerned, it's a shooting gallery at the moment. It's not been a complete performance like England and Spain put in, but Brazil have finished strongly. Plenty of quality on their bench.

Like him or not, you've got to admire the technique.

Never in doubt. Serbia were dropping deeper and deeper. A slow start for sure, but let's see if Brazil can turn it on now Serbia have got to come out more.

Brazil. Those iconic yellow shirts. Every football fan can remember the ones they grew up watching. Pele, Garrincha, Vava Carlos Alberto, Rivellino, Jairzinho Zico, Socrates, Falcao (even as an England fan, that 3-2 defeat to Italy was heart-wrenching) Romario, Bebeto, Dunga Ronaldo, Rivaldo...

Here comes Leo...

No-one expects the Spanish in position.

I hope you didn't!

Really happy for Japan. The subs turned the game. Heartbreak for them in the last World Cup, so a brilliant return.

Wow! Today's shock is on!

A landlone?

Ah, Luka Modric. The thinking man's footballer. Could happily watch him pass the ball all day.

Harry Kane is set to have a scan on his right ankle before Friday's World Cup game with the United States. Kane is set to have the scan on Wednesday to assess the extent of the problem. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/63724625

Zut alors!

He needs a rest. Probably still tired from carrying Man United last season.
