Tactical genius from the Japanese in the Poland game see them through the group. And manage to avoid the situation of England v Japan.
Optimistic as ever |

My Belgium team through to the next round. Can't help thinking that they should have tried for a couple of own goals to see them into the easier half! Can't see Japan testing Belgium. Sorry Stu.
It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses. |

I can't see it happening either to be honest, but I'd rather they had Belgium than England. And you never know!

Well, as my team is Colombia, let's hope... “Lord Nelson, Lord Beaverbrook, Sir Winston Churchill, Sir Anthony Eden, Clement Attlee, Henry Cooper, Lady Diana – we have beaten them all. We have beaten them all! “Theresa May can you hear me? Theresa May, I have a message for you in the middle of the Brexit campaign. I have a message for you: We have knocked England out of the football World Cup. “Theresa May, as they say in your language in the boxing bars around Madison Square Garden in New York: Your boys took a hell of a beating! Your boys took a hell of a beating!”...
You're asking me what it's all about, and I can't tell you because I don't know what's going on myself. |

As soon as I realised it was De Bruyne charging out of defence with the ball I just knew they were going to score the winner and negate extra time. I was gutted for the Japanese at the final whistle, they were terrific.
