Absolute pleasure to watch that game. CV can walk away with their heads held high and in the knowledge that there are few teams that could have come away with that result. CV’s no.13 LB and keeper (at 40) are great players.

Bugger - that’s it then. 🥲

Best match of the tournament so far. Love it!

Superb goal and it seems it’s saped all the spirit out of Argentina.

ET for Capo Verde - excellent!

Come on Capo Verde - get the winner!

Messi dives just outside the box surprise surprise and the Ref buys it - watch them score now.

The Ref is not exactly giving Capo Verde their fair share of fouls - a few times he’s ignored minor trips in favour of Argentina.

Because as a midfielder you need a pair of decent legs to get you up and down the field? 😉

Capo Verde doing rather OK just as I predicted. 😂😉

Fair enough - to be fair I’ll probably nod off, but as it’s once every four years it’s rude not to!

So you’re not sat watching the Capo Verde game hoping that they can pull off a miracle? As was said in build up commentary, whatever happens, Capo Verde win. If they somehow get through what is probably their ‘final’ they’ll be celebs for life.

Thing is it’s difficult to determine exactly how a player will work out in this scenario. Putting on the Pompey rose tinted glasses, you could speculate he might have been surrounded by lesser players and so wasn’t able to reach his peak level. And that he might relish a second chance opportunity at a higher level club and perform out of his skin to prove his worth. Or he might just be a dog. Yeah, that’s more like it! 😂

Any further disruption to the start of the season is really not welcome - the FA are sp slow because they’re knee deep in shite themselves, particularly when it comes to dealing with the likes of,Man City. I really hope Solak has the balls to take legal action if they’re too harsh on Eckhert given the punishment already dished out by the EFL.

I thought we’d rejected £25m? Given his age he’s got to be worth at least that. I would think £25m + a decent sell-on fee would seal the deal.
