You can tell Belgium are confident of the win. They brought on Fellaini.

Never really understood the criticism of Fellaini myself. He is very effective at the boring work which allows more creative players space to operate in.

Right, South Korea v Mexico.

Q3 at Paul Ricard currently red flagged after Grosjean chucked his Haas into the wall.

Well, m'mother was well made up.

We'll be crossing swords on Thursday for the final group game...

 

[Reynard]

Right, that's the F1 qualifying out of the way.

Now to concentrate on this game.

Let's see if sober bet-builder betting has a future...

 

[Reynard]

Ooof, South Korea have started brightly. That was a good chance.

 

[Reynard]

Nice wee open game, this...

 

[Reynard]

Ooooh, good header off a Korean corner, great save by the Mexican keeper.

Mexico almost hit back on the break from the second corner.

 

[Reynard]

Penalty to Mexico.

Handball.

That's harsh.

 

[Reynard]

1-0 Mexico. Carlos Vela. (ex-Gooner btw)

Against the run of play, I must say.

 

[Reynard]

Brilliant fingertip save from the Korean keeper.

Corner to Mexico.

Keeper plucks it out of the air.

 

[Reynard]

This is enjoyable. Not played at a million miles an hour, but good to watch nonetheless. Korea certainly haven't rolled over and capitualted after going a goal down.

 

[Reynard]

And that is half time.

Now to the mundanity of chucking my cycling lycra in the laundry.

 

[Reynard]

Back for the second half. Let's see how this one pans out.
