First time I've ever watched Cavani and not wondered what all the fuss is about.

The determination, passion and effort by Uruguay is incredible.

I'd say Croatia and Uruguay have probably been the best teams I've seen so far.

I've only been watching for ten minutes.... Have there been any VAR issues in this match?

Can't be doing with what I guess is Histrionics 101 for this evening's match, but wasn't the Argentina - France game a corker! First time I've seen anything of Mbappe. I can see what the hype is all about now!

The French RB looks pretty tasty too! Apparently he is primarily a CB according to the commentators.

RB you talk of is Pavard. I posted a link to a killer pass he played a few months back. Think there's some snippets about him in the transfer forums somewhere.

He's quite highly thought of and got the nod over a few decent players to make the World cup squad.

As for Mbappe...Mane on steroids springs to mind. Boy can play.

How have I totally missed the incident which caused Cavani’s injury? What happened?

Ronaldo going out would be a big boost for Kane's golden boot chances.

That was close to being a penalty against Godin wasn’t it?

This Carlos Sanchez that has just come on for Uruguay looks like a pub player. He has only been on 5 minutes nut he is moving round the pitch like he's just finished a double marathon. lol
