Is Uzbekistan really paying Fabio Cannavaro €4m for these kind of results?

Uzbekistan will want Fabio Cannavaro to do better at the 2027 Asian Cup and are no doubt going to be learning from their experience of a debut World Cup campaign.

My fiance is Korean and she will be happy that they are getting eliminated lmao.

Korean fans are kinda going crazy right now. So sick of the corruption and incompetence of their FA. Most are hoping for a quick exit to force more pressure on them. People do not want the team advancing, they feel they will just embarrass themselves further.

Wow!

Korea not making the knockout stages is criminal, especially after winning the first game.

DR Congo got the job done 3-1 over Uzbekistan and Colombia played out a scoreless draw with Portugal in the last set of World Cup group K matches.

Pleased Congo have progressed, but after an auspicious start the Asian Fed has struggled. I’d liked to have seen the Uzbeks progress.

I think LFC shed light on this. Auspicious Asian start, but an Asian Continental fade out.

Our forum UEFA adulators will be thrilled!

I just can’t believe it after watching them outclass Czechs.

Did they lose to South Africa?

Mexico are a decent team, with consistent WC pedigree, playing at home, but I equate South K with immense mental strength.

Time for Ronaldo to gracefully step aside after this WC however that's about as likely as the FIFA head not being a shameless wanker.

Goncalo Ramos 0 minutes today in a game where 3 points puts you on the weaker side of the draw.

Algeria vs Austria. Will vengeance for the Disgrace of Gijon be had?

Can’t confirm it, but looking at Dutch results over the last few years, whilst also looking at Morocco’s results, I think Algeria beat Holland in a friendly - something like 2-0 in Holland.

Very impressive!

He said this was his last WC.

What a goal!!! Giovani Lo Celso makes it 1–0 from a free kick!

 

[Socceroofan4life]

Austria up 1-0!

 

[Dinamo]

Marko Arnautovic scores after a great pass by David Alaba. The old guys still have it!

 

[New Horizon]

From bad luck to good luck for Algeria! 1-1

Not a good WC for Asia

 

[derider]

What a shocker for AFC. With Japan facing Brazil and probably heading out, it’s down to us to salvage some pride for the confederation.

Realising just how far behind the rest of the world AFC is has been sobering. Puts a dampener on next year’s Asian Cup too. Why should anyone care when the overall standard is this low? Not much more than a mickey mouse tournament.currently.

Unfortunately - the way it is now - I don't think the tournament really begins until now

Although, the way next qualifying pans out will be interesting.

I'm not sure how the fuck they're going to do the intercontinental playoffs (as it is currently, the host confederation gets an extra spot in these playoffs - but with 3 confederations technically hosting, who gets it? My guess is Africa).

Plus we'll have US, Mexico and Canada actually in the qualifying round - while I doubt they get tripped up, probably means the usual contenders will be strong enough to qualify this time (Costa Rica, Honduras, Panama?)

The commentator said “Sabitzer the howitzer”
