Morocco Push Scotland Into a Group C Calculation After a 1-0 Win Scotland’s narrow 1-0 defeat to Morocco changed the tone of Group C, leaving Steve Clarke’s side with a final-match calculation rather than comfort. Morocco’s win kept them level with Brazil on six points before the last round, while Scotland were left needing a […]
Brazil Use Cunha and Vinicius to Reset Group C Against Haiti Brazil’s 3-0 win over Haiti gave Carlo Ancelotti the result he needed, but the shape of the victory still left questions before the Scotland game. Matheus Cunha scored twice before Vinicius Junior added a third in first-half stoppage time, moving Brazil ahead of Morocco […]
Colombia’s 3-1 win over Uzbekistan was not as comfortable as the score may suggest, but it gave them the opening Group K result Portugal failed to find. Luis Diaz produced a goal and an assist, Daniel Munoz struck the opener, and Jaminton Campaz made the game safe in stoppage time. Uzbekistan, playing their first World […]
Portugal began with the kind of early goal that should calm a favourite. Joao Neves headed in Pedro Neto’s cross after six minutes, Cristiano Ronaldo started a record-equalling sixth World Cup, and the match looked set for Portuguese control. DR Congo refused that script and left Group K with a 1-1 draw that carries historical […]
England opened their World Cup campaign with a 4-2 win that contained almost everything Thomas Tuchel would want and fear at the same time. Harry Kane scored twice, Jude Bellingham took the second half by the collar, and Marcus Rashford finished the game late. Croatia also twice exposed England’s defensive spacing before the break. That […]
South Africa’s World Cup did not turn into a win in Atlanta, but Teboho Mokoena’s late penalty kept it alive. Czechia led from the sixth minute through Michal Sadilek and looked on course for a result that would have changed Group A. Instead, a handball call seven minutes from time gave South Africa their way […]
Switzerland needed patience before the scoreline finally reflected their control. For 73 minutes Bosnia and Herzegovina held the match in reach, but Johan Manzambi’s entrance changed the rhythm. The 20-year-old scored twice, Ruben Vargas added another, and Granit Xhaka closed the 4-1 win from the penalty spot. The result looked heavy by full time, but […]
Canada’s first senior men’s World Cup victory arrived with force. The 6-0 win over Qatar at BC Place was not only a historical result; it changed the shape of Group B. Jonathan David scored three, Cyle Larin and Nathan Saliba added goals, and Qatar finished with nine men after two red cards. Vancouver did not […]
Mexico did not need a beautiful attacking night to make the most important move in Group A. A 1-0 win over South Korea in Guadalajara was enough to send the co-hosts into the knockout stage and confirm that they will finish top of the section. It was a tense, narrow match rather than a festival, […]
