Hat-trick? What an announcement by Ousmane Dembele to this world Cup concerning his status as a Ballon D’or winner(holder). Mbappe’s two assists helps the French cause as both him and Michael Olise are rubbing off of each other. Norway won’t feel hard done by, Safe group, safe passage. All that matters is getting ready for the knockout rounds.
Senegal hammer Iraq and the red card did not help either. A 5-0 bashing, red card and the African Champions gain a heavy scoreline while a Baena strike in the 48’th minute is the difference between Spain and Uruguay in a clash of the heavyweights where Uruguay crash out in the group stages, Marcelo Bielsa has his work cut out for Uruguayan grassroots in world relations.
Egypt, Iran, Cabo Verde & Saudi Arabia play out draws while Belgium justify their standings with a 5-1 thrashing of New Zealand. The FIFA World Cup has been full of entertaining moments and the world looks on in anticipation and expectation of more.
