Arsenal scoring early is the worst thing that could have happened.  Fortunately I was too stingy to pay to watch it.

Totally agree

If ever there was a team set up to defend a one goal lead it is Arsenal 

Complete and utter boring bastards

[swaddon]

Extra time has started.

I suppose the English side are playing for penalties?

[BigAl]

Jack Wilshire, Martin Keown and Ally McCoist all so blinkered in wanting an Arsenal penalty that they fail to see the foul initially takes place outside the eighteen yard box

PSG win on penalties.

I don't watch the English/European guff, so I know nothing of this incident, but a penalty is given if the foul continues into the box, rather than initial point of contact. 

Edit: which is a pish, contrived rule

How could it be a penalty when the Arsenal boy was holding the PSG player's arm?

Was that the Madueke one? Yeah, never a pen. As you say, Madueke hooks his arm around and pulls the PSG player on top of him who then falls into him making it look a foul.

Keskinen getting a start for Finland against Germany. He was subbed off after 60 minutes along with other two forwards. Germany 3-0 up.

USA v Senegal on Premier Sport just now. 60 minutes gone and US 3-2 up. Neither team looking very good defensively.

Morocco look good team so far. Move the ball well with pace and seem very comfortable on the ball all across the pitch. That said think Norway are unlucky not to be level as they had a goal chopped off for a very soft looking foul. 

[OrlandoDon]

I see Norway equalized, anyone watching??

[tlg1903]

Had the last 15 mins on, hard to really judge anything by this stage of the game 2bh

[Jute]

Watched the game. Second half Morocco changed most of team so harder to judge. They move the ball well and created a few chances that they should have taken but didn’t. They were same in African Nations. Lack of out and out goal scorer might be there undoing. Norway looked better when they brought on Oscar Bobb but that is caveated by changes Morocco made.

Well there’s that but more ability wise. Mbappe up front with Doue, Dembele and Olise behind him.
