The only way Honduras could be more physical in the next game is if they used baseball bats.

Valbuena has looked very assured. Hard to believe that he's 29.

It was all about Sgt. Bash!
I've forgotten some of the names but they fit in well for this team

The only thing missing from this Honduras team is Joey Barton
I think Robbie Savage would get a game

The WWF tactics of Honduras are pretty awful
WWF is the animal protection group. That doesn't really fit with Honduras' image though.

Italia '90 just called. They're jealous of this World Cup's goal-rate

I think he meant WWE, but I get your joke.

Just in case anyone needed convincing that goal-line technology is a positive move:

Richard Keys @richardajkeys · 32m
That wasn't in. At any time. Told you this technology wasn't fool proof.
And the cherry on top:

Richard Keys @richardajkeys · 1m
Got us another angle. It was in.

According to ITV commentary, if the current goal average is maintained for the rest of the tournament, this will be the highest-scoring World Cup since 1958.

Twitter reacts to Jonathan Pearce:

"And what a goal. This is the best Olympics ever!" - Jonathan Pearce.
Is Jonathan Pearce in a constant state of scepticism?

"Water falling from the sky?"
"It's rain, John. "
"Controversial opinion, Martin."
Jonathan Pearce minutes away from complete meltdown. "It's just men kicking a ball around! What's the point? WHAT IS THE POINT?"
Is Jonathan Pearce one of Rio Ferdinand's World Cup wind ups?
Shouldn't make fun of Jonathan Pearce. Feels like I'm crossing a line. Or am I? Yes! No! Wait... What's happening? Who put that line there?
I haven't heard Jonathan Pearce kick off this much since Hypnodisc got booted off robot wars for using performance-enhancing diesel.
Uh oh. They've shown multiple replays - Jonathan Pearce is going to think it's 27-0.

#ThingsThatConfuseJonathanPearce trending in the UK.
Goal-line technology not only shows whether a goal has been scored, but also shows how clueless BBC football commentators are about how the technology works.

The system working as it's supposed to is apparently "controversial" now.

Pearce just called one of the French players a 'boat person' as he was originally from Algeria. Isn't that a bit insulting?

If they go back to the studio and give that second goal more than a dismissive glance I'm cancelling my licence fee. YOU HEAR ME YENTOB?

I never thought I'd say this but thank goodness France won that match.

A 3-0 defeat and a red card was the only thing Honduras and their brand of anti-football deserved.

Extraordinary match in so many ways, due to the dreadful Honduras fouling, the goal-line technology usage and slightly confusion, and Jonathan Pearce making an absolute hash of calling it almost from start to finish.

Valbuena had a sparkling match for France tonight.

They'll make a faux controversy out of it just for something to talk about I reckon.

After the 3rd goal I think France kept their distance a bit.
