There's not many good headline writers working for the BBC but this is the best one so far during this WC:
'Bono gives Morocco the edge in penalty shootout win'.

No CR7 for Portugal tonight. Looks like even his international manager has run out of patience with the sulky git.
You said there'd be a free bar...

No complaints here.
Got what they deserved.
Luis Enrique is toast.
Mirrors and copulation are abominable, since they both multiply the numbers of men.

All credit to the Coach for resting Ronaldo - Seems to be a master stroke of foresight so far 
Be good to see him come on with 15 mins left to pick at the Swiss tired bones

Well, what WW actually said was:Matt White wrote: ↑Tue Dec 06, 2022 8:52 pmWeren't you saying you wouldn't watch any of this WC? Guess listening to R5 Live is ok at a push![]()
"I've stuck to my WC policy of not watching one minute of football from a country with those shocking human rights."
Now whether that means 'broadcast from Qatar' or 'played by a country'...

"Football is not so important that we can't have tolerance of incorrect evaluations."

I haven’t watched one minute of football, I’ve watched plenty. It’s like saying I haven’t had a beer. Works every time 

Bueno!
