    That wasn't virtue signalling, it was an important protest. Having made their point it was sensible not to repeat it.

    If Australia can be in Eurovision, I see no reason why Iran can’t be.

    Wow. I mean Iran completely deserve it, they have been brilliant. However, wales have been diabolically bad.

    Can we sign the whole Iranian team? What a bloody performance and finish for the 2nd - albeit against a League 2 team.

    Sepahan, an Iranian team apparently.

    Blimey. Based on that performance there should be some interest in Europe this winter for him.

    Looks like Bale announced his international retirement on the pitch with that display.

    So presumably if England beat USA they are through, and top, and can afford to conveniently lose to Wales to let them through ??
    May have to score a couple of OGs to achieve it, but very doable.

    How bad were Wales?! So reliant on Bale and he was a non event. I imagine he will retire along with Ramsey after the England game and then Wales will be back in the wilderness for years to come. Shame as they are only home nation (apart from England) I want to do well

  21. Do they have a shortage of surnames in Senegal?
    Mendy x 3
    N'Diaye x 3
    Sarr x 2
    Dieng x 2
    Gueye x 2
    As well as Dia, Diallo, Diatta and Ciss and Cisse.

    Jesus, the fact you had to point out which government you meant is a sad indictment of where we are isnt it.

    Reality check time. Wales bad and Iran good. Playing on the World stage is probably too much for some of those players. Bale and Ramsey prove that if you don't play regularly for your respective clubs then you should not be starting games at this level, bench at best. The heat and nerves did not help as did playing with only 9 players.

    Remember Austria 0 Germany 0 in 1982? I hope we don't descend to that - it would mean an end to us being liked by all foreigners.

    Cast iron penalty for Qatar not given. Match fixing again.

    I like all this added time, unfortunately it may remove **** housing from the game.

    Qatar maybe should have had a penalty when Sarr fouled the Qatari Poundland Salah. Qatari Poundland Salah is their only decent player by the look of it.

    Only Dublins brain trying to deliver a witty comment. Can see why he has been given the two Qatari games.

    He’s saving himself for the 2nd round game against England where he scores a hat trick and the winning penalty before going on to sign for Newcastle for £100m in January.
