FIFA World Club Cup

[CyrilEbokiPoh]

Bono saves an injury time penalty for Al Hilal and Real Madrid still haven’t found what they’re looking for.

Was trying to think of a pun. Clearly you too!

Botafogo 1 PSG 0

Have to say, Vitinho was excellent again

Start of second half of Benfica/Auckland delayed due to heavy rain and lightening in Orlando. If this is a practice run for next years World Cup maybe FIFA should have a rethink about locations? I'm sure many on this board have been to Florida in summer and experienced the almost daily mid afternoon storms? Oy Vey...... who knew?

The weather is screwed everywhere. I’m struggling to do gardening in the heat currently in the UK!

Does look like a lot of Leeds fans in Nashville today.

The funniest thing about this tournament is guessing the next negative BBC headline. They really hate this tournament .

The weather in UK is hotter than you are used to, what was it 27 or so? In Orlando it was 33 degrees actual temperature, felt like 40 with humidity, players shouldn't be asked to run around in that oppressive heat/humidity. Mid afternoon storms are quite normal in Florida in summertime. FIFA has a serious problem on it's hands next World Cup.

Problem is choosing the kickoff times to suit TV viewers, rather than showing common sense. No doubt next summer will be the same.

Botafogo showing they are there by merit. Great to see them giving Athletico a game. Vitinho starts again.

I think times next summer will depend on the 2 teams. If it's 2 European teams it'll be played earlier USA time.

Probably already been mentioned, but if they haven’t paid for Vitinho, how come he is allowed to play?

Because they still hold his registration.

Mexico have had a couple of world cups. Both excellent, notwithstanding the heat.

Those in the USA have been crap. Why would another be any different? At this point I am expecting south American fans to turn up in force. Not so much those from Europe and Asia. You have to hope that Iran qualify.

it's going to be the dullest and slowest World Cup in history. Walking football in most games

It's walking football weather here in Kitchener, Ontario (100km west of Toronto) Currently 33 feeling like 42 with the humidity

Vitinho the best free transfer ever? When do useless FIFA get involved getting Brazil FA to get our money for Vitinho paid?

[Tribesmen]

Here in Italy they have one of tonight's game on the box , it's Banfica v Bayern Monaco . Makes you wonder

[exilecanada]

Watching Benfica vs Bayern. Apparently 'Bank of America' stadium in Charlotte is artificial turf, I was under the impression FIFA doesn't allow artificial turf?

Games are free on Dazn anyway if you sign up & have a profile.

PSG vs Bayern now on DAZN in the QF. Big test for Vincent, been the better team so far, 0-0.

Crazy that FIFAs big event isn’t live on proper TV in the home of football, the UK.
