Are Qatar the worse team ever to compete in the finals of a World Cup?

Ghana are actually ranked lower than them this year... Qatar currently ranked 51 with Ghana at number 60, but there's definitely been other World Cups with countries ranked lower than that too... in fact looking at it further, I think the lowest ranked team ever were North Korea in 2010 at 105th...

 

[oakroader]

jeeeez...argentina....

 

[oakroader]

ffs...germany...

 

[Super_horns]

Germany v Spain at the weekend- suddenly loads of pressure on the Germans .

 

[Carver]

Anyone who thought Germany would finish the group ahead of Spain clearly knows nuthing about international football.

wales...

Why would Spain be a lot better? A lot of their best players are at Barca who got tonked twice by Bayern in the Champions League. Was a decent prediction by me, no one could have predicted that Japan result.

 

[Chris FGR]

wales...

Tough for them today, got outplayed second half but wtf was Hennessey doing that far out.

Iran remind me of Denmark in the Euros, something happens in their first game which creates a siege mentality and they come out firing after a bad start. Reckon they’ll beat the US too.

Because Germany have been pretty disappointing and average since the last World Cup.

How did he not get sent off straight away?

Pretty poor from England but we seem to like a 0-0 in a group game .

Southgate was obviously fearful of the USA too going by his post match comments

Germany have to beat Spain now or they are out potentially.

Pressure on Argentina too.

Chris Sutton did!

Those after match interviews with Kane, Maguire, Southgate, Rice and Mount were absolutely cringe-worthy ~ especially the manager. Fair doo's to Neville and Keane as they said it was how it was. They never brought the midfield into play and there was no quality when they got the ball into the danger areas. Southgate kept using the pronoun ~ we ~ when asked why Foden wasn't involved. Surely that is passing the buck. He has the final say. I'll be glad when this WC is over, and they will get someone in with a bit of tactical knowledge.

Kin ell Belgium…

Kin ell Belgium…

End of an era and all that .

Germany will probably sneak through and Argentina.

 

[Chris FGR]

Chris Sutton did!

You’re right he did. Even got on Japanese TV thanks to that apparently.

Some of his other predictions are a bit iffy mind. He had Canada winning yesterday!
