First fixtures today. I like our chances, so far no one really impressed me.

Belgium should be fine.

I want to be hopeful for this England team too but... y'know, it's England. Even with the other top teams not really impressing, I'm not even confident we'll beat Tunisia.

My predictions have been a kiss of death in this tournament, though. I've inherited the powers of Mr. Grant Hill and No_20 combined.

Belgium reminds me of Germany yesterday...

That was an awful first half for Belgium.

There it is, 1-0. Good goal.

They had to wake up at some point.

My main takeaway from this is that, while the result was expected, Panama aren't as bad as people were expecting them to be

I wouldn't call it atrocious. They were undone a few times by a pretty good Belgian team, especially when they tired in the second half. I'm not sure the second goal wasn't offside btw.

Hey man, I'm just softening the blow for when England inevitably lose to them.

Yeah I'm really liking the quick passes and off-ball movement

After watching Germany vs Mexico, I can see how much England has respect for their opponent.
