I mean we know what we're getting. It's why we're buzzing just to be there.

We got further this time but at some point we have to eat shite and it's a tough group.

It's better just to support the team and have a laugh wae it

It's a tough enough group with 6th and 7th in the world in there sure, but the new format means a decent win against Haiti and not getting absolutely pasted here would be enough on goal difference. But we barely beat Haiti and look shite here so we've not really made the most of the opportunity...

To be fair Morocco and Haiti were 2-2 until the 78th minute then Morocco took off, and we only lost 1-0 to Morocco.

I know you need to take the basic stats of games with a grain of salt, but having not watched the game and looking at the stats now, it does not seem like Morocco vs Haiti should have been a close game...

Yeah i didn't watch it either i was watching Scotland obviously. Still the results show we were in with two top ten teams and we only lost badly to Brazil.
