Wow, this game isn’t slowing down so far in the second half! Thirty-plus minutes to go, how many more goals are in store in this one? #AWCHQ #PORESP ⚽️
Narrator: But they didn’t all pull out guitars and sing folk songs
Halftime, of a really good game! The big names are making their presence felt up and down the field. Some with great play, some with… not so great play. Can’t wait for the 2nd half! #AWCHQ #PORESP ⚽️
And before I even finish writing that update, there’s more excitement! VAR! Goal-line technology! Free kicks from right outside the box! These players could pull out guitars & sing folk songs for the next 60 minutes & it would still be today’s best game. #AWCHQ #PORESP ⚽️
Oh my gosh! Just halfway through the first half and this game is good. “Sensational stuff,” the commentator called it, and I have to agree even though he played for the Dynamo and I’ve never liked him. #AWCHQ #PORESP ⚽️
Having uniform flashbacks here: red & green vs. white with light-red trim. Always a little surprised at how good red & green look, but I liked Morocco’s even better than Portugal’s. All-white with colored trim doesn’t do it for me, sorry Spain & Iran. #AWCHQ #PORESP ⚽️
And not even 5 minutes in, it’s game on! With an early lead, can the early-scoring team build on this, or hang on for another hour and a half? How will the opponents respond? #AWCHQ #WorldCup #PORESP ⚽️
And we’re off, with one of the most anticipated group-stage matches on the schedule! Stars galore and two teams with a real possibility of going deep, if not all the way. Come on, soccer gods, give us a good game! #AWCHQ #PORESP ⚽️
Hey, whoa, wait a minute! Cristiano Ronaldo will be at this tournament?! What a surprise! Wow, what an oversight by Fox to not promote that even a single time in any of their ads beforehand!! Wonder if Messi’s here too…? #AWCHQ #PORESP ⚽️
And that’s the 2nd game down. Except for more guys spending time on the ground, some injured, some not, this game was very similar to the first. Not a compliment! Today’s like a concert with two underwhelming opening bands. Will the headliner redeem it all? #AWCHQ #MARIRN ⚽️
And there’s the 1st half of the 1st game of #WorldCup 2018’s Group B. Another one so far without a ton of excitement. Some shots taken & saves made, one side with the majority of possession but unable to do much with it. #AWCHQ #MARIRN ⚽️
