Other Games - 2026 FIFA Men’s World Cup Edition (+ warm-up matches): Villa-watch

[Toronto Villa]

Barely noticed VAR at the WC. How does the PL fuck it up as badly as they do?

[Skipper_The_Eyechild]

Decisions do seem to be pretty swift.

[TelfordVilla]

That Swiss goal was offside though .No ?

[Hillbilly]

Australia though.

[Dave]

Good For The Tournament

(and McGinn, and Villa)

[Meanwood Villa]

Brazil Morocco looked good from the highlights.

Not one of SJM's sweeter strikes but doubt he'll care.

[Abbeyfealeavfc]

Could someone with the know-how post the goal(s) scored by Villa players at the WC please. TIA.

[Pete3206]

Good for Scotland bur, can't see them getting anything from their next 2 games.

[Dave]

Based on the Australia highlights we punted on the  wrong Aussie goalkeeper.

[LeeB]

Australia though.

Two cracking goals, and judging on one game only, we've found Emi's replacement in goal, should be cheap enough from Melbourne City. He even did one of those mad point blank saves like Emi on the line, and held onto it as well.

Bono is older than Emi.
I’ve been quite impressed with the Moroccan kid Bouaddi.

Vitinha vibes. Pretty much Controlled the game.

Could be this WC's Amrabat.

This was so un-Scottish performance. Normally they die as heroes last night they stole it like common chancers.

He was really impressive. Ridiculously confident at 18, I suppose in a way that only an 18 year old could be.

I know (Moroccan centre back) Chadi Riad's wife and have met him a couple of times.  Nice lad but never that impressed when I've seen him play, though he's spent most of his time at Palace injured.

The late great Peter McParland scored 5 goals for Northern Ireland in the 1958 WC.
