it's interesting that brazil had real problems breaking the swiss down and yet portugal sliced right through them. I wonder if they were prepared for Ronaldo, and when he was replaced, didnt know how to cope

The Portuguese Football Federation (FPF) has denied that Cristiano Ronaldo threatened to leave the World Cup.

Portuguese publication Record claims the forward, 37, made the threat after being told he would not start their last-16 game against Switzerland.

In the previous game against South Korea, the Portugal captain reacted angrily when he was substituted.

The FPF said: "At no time did Cristiano Ronaldo threaten to leave the national team during the stay in Qatar."

it's exactly what he would do, so i dont believe the FPF

England winger Raheem Sterling is to return to Qatar before Saturday's World Cup quarter-final against France.

The Chelsea player, 28, flew back to England on Sunday following a break-in at his family home in Surrey.

Sterling's spokesperson said he left the England camp to "prioritise the wellbeing" of his three young children.

He missed England's 3-0 win over Senegal in the last 16, but is expected to rejoin the squad in Al Wakrah on Friday.

First and ONLY bet of the WC. Didn't wanna bet and not enjoy games hoping for certain teams to win. Yep, it's a silly bet, cost me a fiver, who knows...Wish me luck

What a load of sh1te!!

The worst display of reffing from the ever useless English referee

He failed to punish all the ridiculously cynical Croatian tackles , failed to give that handball penalty .. in fact the guy was booked then handled unintentionally in the box ( still a penalty though ) then committed two more bookable fouls that went unpunished . Then the ref fell for a ridiculous dive to get Casemiro booked that reduced his effectiveness .

Moderic body checked and stamped on his teammates ( Rodrygos foot halting a breakaway attack and left the Brazilian limping - Modric not even booked
The only bonus was it makes it more easier for Messi to win the World Cup !

I hate those bloody Croatians

Generally the refereeing has been good at this World Cup, I think. Not many big controversies.

Typical the English guy is the worst of all.. guess it’s predictable given how poor the refs are in the EPL the last few seasons

2 down, 2 to go. I was out of my seat for the 2nd Netherlands goal Offering me a Ł69 cash out.
