Why are Egypt bringing the goalscorer back on?

The kid who's just come on for Salah is supposed to be special.

[Dogtanian]

That stand was inspired by Space Invaders

They wouldn’t get past immigration!

He looked about 30.

Ringer!

having had a bit of a play with the 3d experience thing, the broadcast view is a bit pointless but the tactical view is interesting (and would be great for highlighting tactical stuff in chats afterwards) and the player cam thing is great fun. Becuse there's a delay between the normal one and the 3d I switched over and, when he came on, set it to first person view of Lukaku for his goal, which is an interesting feature.

I will have to have a look on the app next game.

The full matches for every game so far are available so have a play when you've got nothing better to do rather than mid game like I just did.

My favourite Bruges player Vanaken is coming on.

Belgium with some of the players and squads they’ve had down the years must be bigger underachievers than even England
and that’s saying something

[Dogtanian]

Lovely tackle.

[Sexual Ealing]

They need Trezeguet at the back post.

Adel playing for Egypt has looked good rolling in the deep

[Mellin]

Over the last 12-14 years I've always felt like Belgium have 7 or 8 quality players with a sprinkling of Nacer Chadli.

Trossard is such a diving twat, perfectly suited for Arsenal.

Rumour has it he’s popular in the dressing room.

They've had either a good defence or a good attack for about 20 years but there was only a very brief period where they had both and they wasted it with Roberto fucking Martinez.
