    Very hard to call this game. Japan have some seriously talented ball players in the middle but their defence and strikers aren't great. Ivory Coast have never lived up to their potential but have some players in great form. It'll hopefully be another great match.

    Bloody ITV.

    I don't know, in French, France is called France!

    Itv not bothered with a summariser?

    I got the impression it's a generic commentary feed that they are picking up. They seem as interested in this match as someone who hates football and doesn't know the World Cup is on. More of an excuse to talk about England in between..

    Kicked off at 2200 local time which is very late.

    SuperDry are English. I made the mistake of wearing a SuperDry jacket in Japan, the writing on them is just gibberish.

    England match was supposed to be on now due to the heat in Manaus but pressure from media and the English got it changed meaning this match got moved

    OK, but having any match at this time is crazy regardless of who is playing.

    Fifa moved it along with 6 other games for the tv,not just English t.v. England team would have preferred original time because it would have been a lot cooler.
