Group C: Argentina, Saudi Arabia, Mexico, Poland

I should be made up about this, but I just hate cheating.

The sad thing is, because it's the argies, everyone is happy to forget that they should've been out of sight in the first half. When it happens to England, everyone will be kicking off.

Still taking 10 man Cameroon beating Argentina 1-0 in Italia '90 over this

If Saudi Arabia have a 38 year old who may possibly be even older then I'll give this match a thumbs up lol

Documentary on I Player about that is fantastic.

I'm not watching any of this years tournament, I'll follow on MBM on the guardian and on here. Using the opportunity to watch some awesome docs and old stuff instead.

Saudis well up for this.

Running round all PED'ed up

Good to see the Saudis have got the national team as juiced up as they’ve got Newcastle

Let me guess, Cameroon almost didn't play due to a money dispute between the players and the federation?

That's usually what happens with them

Yeah apart from the Yanks who are quite happy to sit and watch WWE-style scripted drama.

I will say this

Saudi Arabia beating Argentina in Qatar after Qatar got their arses handed to them by Ecuador is kind of amusing

Was figured out at 3AM the night before the Argentina game.

[GoldenToffee]

Elhamdülillah that was some save by the goalkeeper!

I'm just not seeing it lads

Call me a wide eyed optimist, but I genuinely think this is down more to cack officiating than it is dodginess

However, I will sit on the fence a bit longer so I can say I always agreed with you guys just in case something obviously dodgy happens

Standard

Some save that!

Nice to see Argentina finally play with a bit of pace and urgency after all of the fannying around they did in the first half.
