I thought Andros Townsend was good on ITV earlier.

Not if the wingbacks bomb forward like they did against Cameroon.

Will they against Brazil though..? probably will have as many back behind the ball as possible.
Jonathan Pearce on commentary.
Hopefully there'll be another goal decided by goal line technology again. His meltdown last time was quite hilarious.

Yeah, I was surprised. A lot of the fresher names have been good in this tournament while the ones we see all the time have settled into dull patterns. Rio Ferdinand has impressed me too.

Strange that they had to change. Green doesn't clash with yellow (unless you're watching in black and white).

Have you ever watched a football match before? This happens all the time.

The ref is wearing green.

Happened earlier to Belgium, no complaints then.

There have been a few games in this competition where one or both teams have worn their away strip with no obvious clash.
And I have poor colour vision!!

Hardly an insurmountable issue. I'd rather see the ref in an alternate kit than one of the teams.

Yes, kind Sir, I have.
But I've only ever seen a particular player being booed for whatever reason. Never constant booing every time the opposition gets the ball.
Dunno, maybe I haven't watched enough football matches?
