We’re now truly into the swing of things at the Qatar World Cup, enjoying a second successive day of no fewer than four matches to enjoy.
Morocco’s goalless draw with Croatia got us off to a slow start in the morning, but things soon picked up with Japan’s sensational against-the-odds comeback win against Germany, while Spain put on a show as they put Costa Rica to the sword. Canada’s spirited display – not quite getting what they deserved – against Belgium capped the day off nicely.
