I was astonished a pen wasn’t awarded too.

I understand you are an experienced ref too, NCB?
No I think Faghani got it right. However, it only seems to be people in Australia that seem to think along the same lines as me. What I did find weird about it, was the wording on the VAR check "attacker initiated contact." I just thought it was a blatant dive along the lines of Almiron's against USA when there was that whole "Mistaken Identity" thing.

Always good to get experienced refs’ views!

You’ve convinced me, NCB!
 
Portugal with an early goal.
 
I reckon England might go close if they are up for it. Usually not the case, but I really think they should give it a red hot crack
I anticipate a slow opening game. Hope I'm wrong as I'm investing a late night in this one.
 
In what seems like a lot of surprising draws, I'd be curious about how many points have been dropped in total in all games so far.

These surprising draws set up a lot of outsiders to potentially land on 4 points making the 3rd place race tighter.
