Hiding these excellent finishes in the middle of the night is a strategic error on the part of the ICC and the broadcasters.

I like seeing it though. My favourite memory is from before VAR though, Martin Ling for Swindon in their glory season of conceding 100 goals under John Gorman. His appeal was thwarted by a central defender languishing about ten yards behind.

Was Conte back on the touchline for Spurs today?

I remember the last time Liverpool had a 7-0 win, at Palace if I recall correctly. Didn`t it herald that bizarre run of home defeats? I`m sure that won`t happen again.

I can only imagine what Bayern would do to us. Another 7-something schooling. Best to apologise to everyone and sneak out the back door.

I have been watching some futsal world cup qualifiers. Great to see time being stopped every time the ball is not in play. Also, if the ball is not put in play in the five seconds given, the other team gets the ball.
