England just throwing the guy on his face so he can't hit the header. Too bad it wasn't Haaland shoving him, would've been a foul.

I can't stand Stu Holden as a commentator. It's unfortunate this duo has the final.


He’s ok in what he says, but his voice is grating almost as bad as Beth Mowens.

Only Norway's coach is calling for the fouls and that's the way it should be.

Stu Holden is a fricking clown. He shows up early for college basketball games in the student section.

I like stu. I dislike the partner. 45 minutes down 45 to go or whatever he's been doing is annoying as frick.



The worst is hargraeves.


Take that back, the females suck too but I feel like I've heard these two and Owen and Fletcher the most.

Meh, him downplaying that penalty is him being a good boy. He's either doing that or just talking without actually providing any good information or insight.

I have a question about the last play of the first half. Obviously I'm barely a casual fan.

Kane was definitely offsides by rule. I can see that he was moving toward the goal and was past the defender.

But, what if Kane was dead still and that defender suddenly ran at the ball, leaving Kane behind. Would he still have been offisides?

The Haaland one was clearly a push. Did he sell the contact? Absolutely, but that’s called all the time.

I’m rooting for Norway, but that’s always going to be called.

Stu Holden: “You just feel like if Brazil wants to play Brazilian soccer, they've got to embrace the samba. And when the samba's flowing, Brazil looks like Brazil. That's Brazilian football.”

Just always states the obvious and makes my head want to explode.

Generally if the offside player does not approach the ball and is not involved at all they’ll continue play. If he were to affect the play in any manner it would stop play.

It’s all about where you are when the pass was made. Nothing else matters.

The problem is the foul was only called because Norway scored and they did VAR

100s of pushes like that are happpenokg constantly that aren’t getting called

I knew Norway had a punchers chance today but I am surprised that through 80 minutes they've had by far the better opportunities.
