Ah weary eyed football is back and I love it. What a special win for South Korea. Czech Republic went very close.

Echo chamber social media to be ignored how people wrote off this game after 10min. It developed into a great tussle. Tipped 1:1 but I had a sneaking suspicion that South Korea would win.

Czechs showing the World how they managed to lose to the Faroe Islands.

Oh give me the 2006 Czech team but they crashed out too after an impressive defeat of the USA to start.

They used a Yank commentator. They should have used a British one.

How did I miss that?! Although I thought I heard some strange terminology

Like South Korea looking for the go-ahead goal?

Out of curiosity, what nationality of commentator do you think they should have used.

Any Non-American English speaker

Not sure if anyone on SBS on Demand scrolled down far enough - but some other viewing recommended by SBS

I just want Martin Tyler. Is that a nationality? Hehe

Sadly Martin was washed up at the last WC. 80 years old now.

Drury Beglin
* edit - Townsend not bad as well.

Rosicky’s blinder from outside the box

Edit: stupid autocorrect

S.Korea off to a good start with three points, but they should’ve scored 4-5. Sonny left a couple on the table in the first half. Well done for the comeback though.

Really impressed by their forward passes into the box. Son is such a great style of central striker for entertaining football.

Yes, I do recall he sounded too far gone.
