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

Another for the GOAT.

He deserved it for that killer touch from Emi's long ball.

I agree.

Inter Miami must be some team, though.  Maybe the various bugs and alligators keep them on their toes.

[Brazilian Villain]

My word, he's only gone and scored a hat-trick.

[Toronto Villa]

What a fantastic goal for his 3rd.

[adrenachrome]

Brilliant from Messi.

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

Had woken up to check in on Big Emi, but that number 10 (someone called Messi, I think) has stolen his thunder!

Cue Ronnie's hat trick tomorrow...

Edit: or later today. This football is all doing hell to my body-clock!

[Smirker]

I would genuinely suck a fart out of his bumhole. What an honour that would be.

[VancouverLion]

He really is the GOAT. What a player!

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

Argentina's moves are mesmerising.  Come on Em, keep that clean sheet!

[Hillbilly]

He really is the GOAT. What a player!

I know right! Another clean sheet.

[ADVILLAFAN]

Miraslaw Klose can't be enjoying this World Cup much.

[Meanwood Villa]

VAR finding the minutest reason to disallow a goal again

[Somniloquism]

Find where I said Sancho is better than Saka and I'll leave.

He should be where Saka is now as he is the better player.

Oh well. At least we haven't paid money for him.

The Sanch 

If I believed that, I would go back and find it. But as you are worse then a conspiracy theorist you will state you meant something else anyway as the exact words were....

Called it.

[Dogtanian]

It's the big one tonight!

The fish n chips of Blighty versus the savoury bureks of Croatia.

Will there be a winner? Or will we end up with some sort of delicious cod and potato burek you can dip in tartar sauce?

I've no idea, it's all still lost in chaos, but I am getting hungry!

[AV82EC]

I’m expecting a cussed and tight affair tonight between two nations who do cussed really well. The only way it could be more cussed is if Serbia were playing.

[Dave]

I reckon England will win pretty comfortably tonight. Then we'll draw 0-0 against Ghana. Smash Panama. Straightforward 2-0 win in R32. Quarter-final defeat.
