Pick that out.

[Bent Neilsens Screamer]

Iraq are quite tidy in possession.

Just watching the lightning map, it is walking closer and closer to the stadium.

I think the last one was close enough to set off the delay.

With all his power Donald has done nothing against this sort of thing. Surely he has weapons to shoot lightening right out of the sky or at least push it towards poorer countries?

Game delayed for another hour due to the rain and lightning. FIFA officials have described the adverse weather as almost as bad as in Bath.

[Sexual Ealing]

This is why you shouldn't have these things in backward, shithole countries.

[pauliewalnuts]

Why can't they just have classy weather, like in Norway?

[Brazilian Villain]

We interrupt coverage of the France v Iraq game to bring you 30 mins of Sumi Somaskanda. Hurrah!

[Toronto Villa]

After all this rain, delay and rest the hydration break will be much needed headed into the 4th quarter.

French fans passing the time with "Andy Burnham est un connard..."

Sacked in the morning.....

[Chip Butty 111]

This is the first time I've needed to shave between the 1st and 2nd half 🤔

[Brazilian Villain]

What a howler by Iraq. Gift for Mbappe.
