Congrats! I have decided to adopt KSA as my underdog team this tournament. Their workrate and technical ability were a perfect match today.

Imagine that, another Messi v Ronaldo thread disaster.
Anyhow, does the Saudi win count as the biggest upset in Cup history? Biggest group upset if not overall?

Crowd 
Like a Turkish game
Like a Turkish gameKSA's coach is what all these weird youngsters would call a "chad" I think.
According to the Urban Dictionary, a Chad is: Residue of faecal matter; usually situated between arse cheeks after incomplete wiping and can spread to balls.
You would need to know the man pretty intimately to call him a 'chad' then.
Amen
Tunisia are up for this, should be a cracker this game
Agreed they are too old to be the main men.
Dens struggling
This is about Messi vs Cristiano though. If Messi were to agree to do an interview next week then he would sing his praises like no other.
I hate piers Morgan but I agree with this
Argentina could've used Garnacho, like most here have said but they could also have used a striker who can actually get into the 6 yard box. Di Maria played a few balls into the box that just needed someone at the end to tap in.
Saudia, Tunisia and Morocco will feel like playing at home more than Qatar.
Next Newcastle manager
Yes. Also because they play absolute crap football
Yeah, it’s the expectations, he played at this level in 2018 and won the tournament MVP. Of Christian Eriksen played like that for a game, nobody would complain. But Messi haven’t been a dominant force in many years now.
That shot really looked like it was going in from the angle. I was so confused why Schmeichel was just standing there
Ooooh
It would be injustice to watch that beaut of a goal without Arabic commentary
Exactly.Especially Saudis. Qatar is arabian gulf country. It's a bondship more than being an Arab. We call our selfes Alkhleej. I'm a Kheleeji my self mate.

Might be better to finish second in England's group. Semi finals are there for the taking.
There was a Cameroon 1 Argentina 0 in 1990. Argentina still went to the final but it was a pretty big upset with Maradona in it.
I'd put South Korea against Italy in 2002 too as one of the craziest upset.
Tunisia have started the better here.
What does Chad stand for in slang?
It originated in the UK where it was used to describe a particular humorous ad-hoc cartoon. Later, it was employed in Chicago, where it was used as a derogatory description for young, upper-class, urban males. In modern internet slang, the term generally refers to an "alpha" or otherwise hyper-masculine male
Senegal against holders France too.
There's tens of thousands of Tunisians living in Qatar. Explains why it feels like a home match.
scandinavian teams are the unseasoned chicken of football: they are so bland yet serve their purpose
Balls, I thought this was the Fans thread in the general
Oh yeah I remember that game, 1-0 I think.
Sounds like a fecking motorbike
why are the booing Denmark ?
Denmark looking good
Maybe Saudi is well trained in forming the offside trap by their new coach.
Does John Hartson know the rules
Off
Hartson was plucked straight out of 2007 for this match
Partisan crowd.
“Have you ever seen a later flag than that?!?” Has John Hartson not been watching football for the past 3 years?
