South Korea!!! What a result!

Two Celtic players in the group stage XI! Voted on by the public, so there surely can’t be enough of us to rig it 😂

@nessisonett Is that the same Lamptey that plays for Brighton? If so, that is who my fantasy football team is named after! So that is something at least.

@JohnnyShoulder Yep, that’s a couple of Brighton players too actually, with Caicedo and Lamptey!

@nessisonett
Aren't Estupinian and Mitoma also both at Brighton? And Mooy& Ryan were previously...
Are there enough Brighton fans to rig the vote?

@sorteddan You’re right, think there’s some sort of Brighton trickery going on 😂

@nessisonett @sorteddan When Brighton and Celtic fans come together to rig a vote, you know there is something wrong in the world.

Aww, Australia gave it a good go but that’s us set for a Netherlands v Argentina quarter-final, which is going to be a great match!

A repeat of the 98 quarters and the 78 final. The latter match was eventful to say the least!

England looking like they’re living up to their squad’s quality now. It’ll be one hell of a match with France!

How nice it is to have a comfortable knockout match, even if Senegal did put England under some decent pressure in the first half.

Fabulous play by Bellingham for the first two goals.

@Thrillho The only issue with England is that first wee while to get going in each match. That could prove fatal against France given how scary they can be.

@nessisonett I do wonder if Safety First Southgate might go back to five at the back to cover Mbappe, maybe with Walker as a RCB with his pace (even if he looked a bit off it today).

Only just found out that Sterling has gone home to be with his family, after armed intruders broke into his home while his family were inside.

I know it is quite common for footballers homes to be broken into when they are at away matches, but this takes things to a whole new level.

@JohnnyShoulder Wow, I’d just heard that it was a family emergency but not the details. That’s pretty vile.

Gutted for Japan. They were the better team all match and Croatia scrape through yet again despite being terrible the entire tournament. I hate penalties.

Brazil putting on a samba show tonight. Some brilliant goals so far.

Current prediction is a France v Brazil final. And what a final that would be!

Didn't think Brazil would literally start busting out the dance movers at the final whistle! 😂

The lead singer from U2 scored against Spain?
