    Egypt are playing very well, they’re not giving Argentina much at all. Impressive :)

    Egypt are playing well. How did Argentina miss the penalty?

    I would like Egypt to win, but think unlikely.

    Egypt are playing much better than I thought

    Huge reprieve for Argentina there as that second goal was awesome

    They have an awesome second goal now. I think Argentina are out

    What has just happened? Just goes to show never write Argentina off.

    Feel a bit sorry for Egypt.

    Nope Argentina are through to the Quarters. They will face Switzerland or Colmbia who play tonight at 9pm.

    Yeah there was a bit of rumpas near the end the Egypt Manager ended up getting Yellow Carded.

    Nobody gets a card, you just call up Infantino and threaten him…

    I think Switzerland will win the penalty shootout

    It will be a shame for whoever looses.

    We’ve lost Colombia and Japan now. I like the way Spain play football and will surely play better than they did last night but the rest that are left I haven’t really enjoyed watching 😕

    Switzerland really play an attrition style of football don't they - hard work to watch as well as play against. I wonder how they will get on with Argentina. I'm glad that their match is the only one of the quarters scheduled at a difficult time to watch, I may not bother watching it live!

    Coo, a day off from football! How will I cope! The Arthur Fery match at Wimbledon this afternoon should be worth a watch though.

    Happy pause-from-all-the-football day folks!

    The Arthur Fery match at Wimbledon is worth a watch. He is doing well.

    I am enjoying watching it @Scooby222 I hope you are too.

    I'm not sure I agreed with some of the decisions in the Egypt game, that second goal especially it seemed a bit of a stretch to disallow. Egypt played really well thought and should be really proud.
