Gary Neville saying only one European team has won World Cup outside of Europe, Germany in Brazil in 2014
Didn't realise South Africa was in Europe when Spain won in 2010

Ireland is a sovereign nation colonised by the British seven hundred years ago. It was actually Britains first colony. As for being part of the British Isles I suppose as much as UK is part of Europe. Both geographically true but irrelevant geopolitically
Was at the game. Felt the response to Zirkzee sub was horrible. There were worse than him on that pitch who played the full 90. Pathetic performance though. How anyone can think any United midfield without Mainoo is better than one with him in it I'll never know.

Will never understand the GAA's insistence on having draws on a Monday morning, on the radio. Throw it on the Sunday Game, then by 8.30am the CCCC can give all fixture details instead of making all fans wait

Cannot understand when midfield is being so badly lost, not telling Lynch to sit back. After one goal, fine, but after the second should have been an easy call. Then they do it again.
Fair play to Donegal though, they were very good, exploited a pretty simple fault

What a great day that was. Unbelievable game of football. Derry proving the belong at the top table

Those Glen boys will be leading the charge on the Kerry social scene tonight. Fair play to them.
Relax with the outrage.
The day a referee looks at a screen and tells the VAR to stop wasting his/her time and stick to their decision will be a great day.
Shambles of a system

In this WSL Manchester Derby, if that ball went out, which it probably did, why has no-one mentioned it should have been a corner?

Everton's biggest mistake was limiting themselves to a single FFP breach.
114 additional ones and they would've got away scot-free.
Today is the first time I've properly doubted ten Hag. Amrabat coming off, leaving McTominay as a solo DM, then bringing Hojlund off instead of Rashford, and not hauling Bruno off for a horrible performance, letting people glide past you in a derby is unforgivable

Wayne Barnes getting some amount of stick from NZ fans. Pity him and his TMO didn't see the head hit on Bundee a fortnight ago. They weren't complaining then

Bobby Charlton saw close friends die at Munich. He helped lead Manchester United's recovery to become English, then European champions. For decades the club's record goal and appearance holder, he was a World Cup winner and European player of the year too. What a life. RIP.
