I'm so proud of our guys. We lost today to the Dutch (who have been playing this game for 200 years or so) three to one, but we left it all on the field. Bring on 2024, we have nowhere to go but up!!

Yes what a waste of resources.

These countries make easy money of their natural resources. So much, they can afford to waste it all and bribe fifa officials and hire lobbyists to get what they want. Soccer has no place in qatar. A black page in the history of soccer.

I agree totally. I didn't want it to be a success but on the pitch the football has been a success.
Looks like the Olympics is next:

England shake start but the quality shone through in the end. 3-0
I'm not convinced they will beat France though.

Japan - Croatia into extra time, Japan playing well, think it might go to penalties.

And I'm out. I had Spain the the office sweep but unfortunately for me the Spanish took some even worse penalties than the Japanese last night and so Morocco go through. Well done Morocco.

Simmer Olympics, I suppose.

The hottest day ever in Qatar was record in July 2010 when temperatures peaked at 50.4°C (122.7°F)

Add 3 degrees for climate change over the next 14 years...
