Group A - Qatar, Ecuador, Senegal, Netherlands

[flibbertyjibber]

Soft penalty to give away but Ecuador have got what they deserved. Done nothing going forward at all.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Qatar keeper so unlucky with the 2nd goal, great save and his defenders were asleep instead of clearing.

 

[Xuhaib]

Qatar has to be the worst world cup team i may have ever seen. Its not that they are just awful they are incredibly dull as well which makes them even worse.
Atleast if they had been comically bad there would have been some watchablilty about them but its just paint dry stuff .

 

[Uppercut]

Ecuador here are a great example of a team playing for 0-0 and conceding far more chances than they would have if they'd just played normally.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

That was a quick reply from Senegal

These games with something on the line are so much better, I think I want Senegal to get through, I'd prefer Ecuador and Senegal over the Dutch, but obviously it can be only one. Tasty 20+extras coming up

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Cant see Ecuador with another goal

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Such shifting of emotions in 2 mins

 

[ripper868]

ecuador never really looked likely there did they

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Good game that. Ecuador got what they deserved for trying to get a 0-0 from the start.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Cisse some character

I didn't watch any of it, but how they won the Asian nations championship last time out baffles me.

Look well organised but so, so limited.

It can happen, Greece won Euro 2004 ..They are the inspiration for Park the Bus teams

Disappointed for Senegal. Hopefully they'll still go through and knock England out in the next round.

I wrote the above after Senegal lost to the Dutch. It's coming home to Dakar!

Qatar didn't park the bus at all when they won the Asia Cup, they played Japan off the park ffs and the only goal they conceded was also in the final
