World Cup 2nd Group Phase Live Match Chat
Welcome to World Cup 2nd Group Phase Live Match Chat. We now enter into the second round of games and some of us will have got off to a flying start. Others not so much, but however you are doing we still encourage you to partake in the chat. We are sure there will be plenty to discuss that doesn’t always involve whether you should get assist points for a shot that was blocked or your striker really did touch the ball a la Kane before it went in. Predictor games, brackets, bets on the golden boot are all welcomed here. And yeah, even old school footy chat for those that who are just watching the games for fun and just want to talk about the Joga Bonito.
So that you have them to hand, we will post a screenshot of the substitution rules, transfer allotment, wildcard, boosters and of course we will have times and dates for all matches in this, the first of three group phases/rounds/fixtures or whatever you want to call it.

Good luck to most of you, but not all of you for this 2nd phase of fantasy World Cup!
It is a lively game with both sides playing well. hard to predict the outcome.
I hope Salah will win this for Egypt, he deserves it!!
It doesn’t look he’s fully recovered from the injury. Maybe it was too soon to play him.
Should have come off the bench to score the winner imo.
Indeed he’s playing very carefully… Doesn’t look good… Anyway, the real WC starts in the quarters, and neither of these teams will be there!
Russia needs at least a draw to go through. The last game will be tough for them.
Well, ZL, I still think there will be surprises and one or two of the expected ones won’t make it 😉
Well I agree, but that’s not what I said! 😉
@Goldilocks
How many points in the end?
With that goal Russia should be in the last 16 :bouncy-balls:
How are Rússia playing so well strange
Well Silvers, 8 goals and hopefully two clean sheets for the “underdog”, not bad.
Down to 1 CS now…Salah scores from PK
A bit of a dodgy penalty but :whatever:
Yes down to one Ivan but looks like you will be going though
Not me Silvers. I always support the underdogs in every World Cup, makes it more interesting.
Ivan a bit of misinterpretation there mate
Russia are the first team in the World Cup history to score 3 or more goals in the first two games of the tournament :clap:
I have a feeling two other teams will join them tomorrow.
It is possible to be even three 🙂
Could be 4 come Saturday and you wouldn’t bet against any of them.
I don’t know where you got that stat Ivan but it looks incorrect to me:
I definitely know that France won its first two games 3-0 and 4-0 in 1998 against South Africa and Saudi Arabia.
And I’m pretty sure there must be other teams.
Maybe. It was just twitted by Squawka and Lineker was talking in the studio after the game. Sometimes they are getting it wrong.
:lurker:
