    Honduras are one dirty team.

    France look good thus far.

    Do you live in Italy now Hamm?
    Some people say he’s the best since Arkle and that’s certainly true when you look at what he’s done

    More action in first 20 mins than in full Swiss game. Valbuena looks very sharp. Benzema very rusty.

    Talking

    Ah, just a joke - when my Grandad was on his deathbed he told my mum his mum was Italian (he had a difficult childhood and never met his mum). At least now I know where i get my suave good looks from (Clive who has met me will confirm)

    Agree. Pogba good too.

    Savage is dreadful and has the voice of a whining little girl. What audience exactly is he there for?

    France getting plenty of help from the ref.

    Pogba was a straight red. Palacios deserved his first for his part in the spat. The second was a bit soft - the penalty would have been punishment enough - but understandable. I wouldn't imagine the ref would have given it at the other end. I'm not sure he'd even have given the penalty if it had been at the other end.

    Life is going to be very tough for Honduras and they'll need to be very much more in control of their physical side if they want to finish with ten men.

    I've pretty much kissed my bet goodbye.

    Barry, can you start another competition please? One question each day. When you get the question wrong you ate put. First question:

    Has having a bet made DO blind to what has happened in the first half?

    A - yes
    B - no

    Why is the BBC commentator making such a big thing about the goal-line technology?

    It
    a) confirmed the ball didn't cross the line when it came off the post (just in case any idiot thought it did), and
    b ) confirmed it did cross the line when the keeper fumbled it. (Officially should be an own goal.)

    I have no idea why they showed the first technology decision.

    Pogba and Palacios should have both walked after the earlier incident. Palacios with a stamp after his foul. Pogba for the kick.

    Valbuena very good, one of those players who is much better for his country than club.
