Quite a good first 45mins in the Belgium - Japan. Japan showing Belgium no respect by pressing them very high and pushing them back frequently into their final third,and when called upon to defend have done so well. Belgium had the lions share of the last 15mins,but I think 0-0 H/T a fair result.

Enjoyed it so far and Japan giving it a right good go, fair play. As I type they score!! Think Belgium will still win but now have to score at least twice to do it!

What a second half 5 goals, with Japan 2 up so early it was obvious they were now going to have to defend for a good portion of the remainder, Roberto played his trump cards with his substitutions,and although Japan came close a couple of times the writing was on the wall,and never a better time to score a winner,and what a winner it was.

Japan lacked height and physical presence at the back, so the Belgian muscle men cashed in. I wanted Japan to win but well done Belgium for hitting back and the winner was a great team goal. Credit Roberto with some good substitutions as JF said. They salvaged the game for them. Enjoyed!!

Engerlund were garbage tonight , no pace , no imagination , no creativity , no chances against the weakest team left in the tournament.
I was fucking gutted when Dier scored their last penalty. Did note that the absolute shithouse Vardy didn't take a penalty !

So England are through then. And on penalties!! I'm really pleased they beat those cheating, wrestling turds, who should have been down to 10 men after Henderson was head butted on the chest and then under the chin. ZZ was sent off for a head butt on the chest against Italy a few years ago after his mother or sister was called a whore. But why only a yellow card when it should obviously have been a red? VAR officials again?

Here's the thing though. Columbia, my dark horse, are a good team. They have quality players, pace, athleticism and a lot of skill. Had they concentrated on playing football instead of indulging in the dark arts, they might well have won that game. But all they cared about was fouling and niggling and eventually got what they deserved imo. Good fcuking riddance!!

What about Sterling then ? Fisted someone in the gob in their area just before halftime , blanked out by the commentators and not replayed on the TV coverage !
The ref was a prat , and don't get me started on VAR !
