Belgium playing like shit vs Morocco. It hurts even more to not have gotten a result from that match.

I was happy for Belgium to run the table in the group and we finish second, but it's looking less and less likely.

What did he say?  

He gave a personal message to these boys last night. It was far more “colourful” language than what Herdman said. He said Canada has been disrespected for years, we need respect and we’re getting it. Herdman said what he said to fire up the team another level. To play in the World Cup you need to be animals, he was passionate, to the point.

Fucking Belgians not doing us any favours at the moment.  

EDIT:  Whew!   Morocco goal offside.

Either you're in an echo chamber or De Guzman's message really fired you up.

Maybe he said it three times to make sure it sunk in???  😂😂😂

Bad feeling about this game. But I usually have a good feeling, and we lose. so maybe that’s a good thing. Who knows.

[Alex]

I said it three times cause it deeply affected me

With Costa Rica it's probably neither at this point. Germany should beat Costa Rica and Spain probably at least gets a draw against Japan. I still think Belgium still tries to play for first place. Spain are looking like favourites to make a deep run.

The way this group is going, anything can happen.  Japan completely outplayed Costa Rica and lost.  They did nothing in the first half against Germany, and ended up winning.  

[vancanman]

Jeeeeebus, Morocco coming close again, and Belgium looking like amateurs at the moment.  Any hair that I have left after this match'll be gone after our game.

[gwsmith63]

They may still go on and win this match but maybe Belgium just isn’t that good?

Between the US draw with England and Costa Rica beating Japan why do I feel like we're getting hosed by the soccer Gods?

[scullion44]

Hakimi off and apparently he wasn’t fully fit today. That’s huge

They’re probably closer to Denmark than they are to Brazil for example. But Lukaku is a big loss for them. Bathsuyai is a Larin level striker.

[rydermike]

It's tough watching a game and hoping nothing happens. Normally, you want something exciting to happen 

[gwsmith63]

Oh my. 

[narduch]

This one should stand

[vancanman]

Fuck.

Belgium have looked like crap for a game and a half, and they decide to wake up for two minutes to get a goal against us.  I'm never eating another waffle as long as I live.  

[Cowtown Kyle]

Courtois is killing us on all fronts this World Cup

OK, maybe just the waffles.

Nice cross half a metre over everyone's heads, Mr. Man-of-the-Match.
