First BBC coverage of the first World Cup with VAR, and the Beeb have gone with… Jonathan Pearce.

That’s a ballsy move.

1 shot each on target in 1st 11 minutes.

At last proper football breaks out at WC2018

All together now.

“Martin Caceres. He’s one of our own”

I’ll get me poncho.

There’s a BITE on the wind says Pearce…

It is certainly like supporting/watching Saints, pedantic slow paced 4-4-2 building from the back and constantly hitting a wall of Egyptians on the halfway line.

I may need a snooze before HT at this rate

Noooo

Suarez misses a sitter

Pearce and Keown adding real value there. Figuring out the ‘disallowed’ goal was actually what we in the game call a ‘miss’, a good 60 seconds after the fact.

So another huge Uruguay/Saints coincidence.

Suarez is actually Carrillo

Did they actually put any effort into selling tickets for this. It’s empty

I think all the empty seast are the ones at pitchside. Seems to be full higher up. Not sure if the empty ones are corporates or something.

Cheapest tickets were $31 to locals who probably spend that on Vodka in a month…

Perceptive those Ruskies.

Martin Keown makes me so angry it’s almost sexually arousing.

Got just the thing for you @dinger

Nope, even for me, that is so wrong…

Do you think that the BBC could offer an alernative ‘commentators’ option, even listening to the Egyptian commentary has got to be better than Keown and Pearce…

Suarez you Donkey

Feck me, is Graham Souness coaching the Uruguay team?
