What you may have missed from World Cup Day five

There are five days gone and just 26 left to go.

We are already worried about how we are going to fill our empty parts when all this football is done and dusted.

If you have any suggestions, or perhaps a teddy we can cuddle to keep away the loneliness, send them to Onefootball Towers ASAP.

So yesterday, I was really, really busy trying to understand Hubble’s Law of Cosmic Expansion, can you tell me what I missed?

First of all. What the Hell is Hubble’s Law of Cosmic Expansion?

To be honest, I am not really sure so let’s just talk football.

Deal. Well England shocked us all by playing some decent stuff and then reassured us all by going back to being unable to break down a stubborn defence. Still, they won, which was the cue for various commentators to go overboard.

Elsewhere. Croatia striker Nikola Kalinic decided that coming off the bench and playing for his country in the World Cup was not his thing so when his boss, Zlato Dalic, told him to get warmed up and come on against Nigeria, he told him to do one. Coincidentally, Dalic then told Kalinic to do one and the Milan star is now on his way home.

What an idiot.

Hey, don’t give idiots a bad name like that.

Sorry. Anything else?

Yeh. Saudi Arabia had a very scary flight, Sweden beat South Korea 1-0 and Belgium beat Panama 3-0.

OK. Sounds interesting. If you had to pick a best moment though, what would you go for?

Belgium’s first goal , by Dries Mertens, got us very hot under the collar.

He seemed pretty happy with it too.

And a worst moment?

Wilmar Roldán’s performance. He gives a penalty to Tunisia that was debatable but then ignores Harry Kane being suplexed to the ground. Hmmm.

Hmm, I need something to lighten the mood after that. What you got from yesterday that will make me laugh?

How about Sergio Ramos taking the piss out of Cristiano Ronaldo?

Did anyone say anything interesting yesterday?

“I’ve seen a couple of them and they make me look a bit chubby if I’m totally honest with you.”

Harry Kane is not impressed with the Russian dolls made in his image.

This may surprise you but I’m into visual art. Can you show a picture from yesterday that evokes all the emotion of  the World Cup?

You know what? I am sick of football. What else could I be watching today?

How does a dose of IPA Pool Freesports Champions Cup sound?

Perfect.

You’re welcome.
