Just pointing out RTE sports demented WORLD CUP obsession with Israel.

And your obsession with RTEs obsession.

Proper game of ball on here. You’d think Casemiro will hardly last much longer - on a yellow too.

High quality game, Brazil are starting to impose themselves but Morocco works hard and have the quality to catch them on the break.

This match is a bit shit.

It's a good match. They're both highly skilled, decent defences,that's why it's just 1 all

Zidane has aged like a fine wine. David Beckham who?

I really enjoyed that game. Morocco are a team worth watching, there could be a semi final in them. They reminded me a bit of prime Barcelona.

Brazil aren't winning the World Cup, that's for sure.

Looking forward to the Scotland game now. Haiti are probably the first cannon fodder team of the tournament, so it'll be interesting to see just how big the gulf is between them and a team with McTominay and McGinn. It could very easily end up in double digits, which doesn't bode well for the likes of Cape Verde etc.

Brazil lacking a bit of quality to go all the way in my opinion.

They had chances but outside of Vini jr no major goalscoring threat, hard to see what Neymar can add.

You’d assume Neymar is just there as a talisman and to be a voice in the dressing room etc.
He’s still recovering from a calf injury and hasn’t played for Brazil since 2023 but is unsurprisingly, revered in Brazil.

He's a posterboy, he used to ve a good forward despite the throwing himself down. It's still an opening match so see what happens. Morocco are pretty good to he fair
