Uruguay v Russia & Saudi Arabia v Egypt kicking off shortly.

jimmii

4 players for me in the Russia v Uruguay game and 3 of them aren't starting so that's a great! I've had the worst luck with my two Uruguay players so far! Hoping for Cheryshev to bring home the points again.

Starting with Isco as captain today he doesn't seem the type to bring in a double digit haul but you never know.

jimmii

And he goes and scores an og and gets taken off after 36 minutes :pac:

Suarez and Salah goes so far. Missed penalty for the Saudis too. At least the group isn't just being played out with everything settled now lots going on!

I did a last minute transfer at a cost to get in Cheryshev for Golovin.

DISASTER!

Ah well at least cheryshev didn't get a red card. He can be subbed. On the plus side I brought in the Egyptian keeper when I saw the line ups. Saved pen is nice. Pity he didn't save the second one mind.

1-1 Isco. He definitely won't score again....*crosses fingers*

Absolute belter from Qures Queres Qua... from Portugal!

spock.

Ronaldo missed pen. He won it too though a net of 0 points

Denmark XI: Schmeichel, Dalsgaard, Kjaer, Christensen, Jorgensen, Stryger, Delaney, Braithwaite, Eriksen, Sisto, Cornelius

France XI: Mandanda, Sidibe, Kimpembe, Varane, Hernandez, Nzonzi, Kante, Lemar, Griezmann, Dembele, Giroud

Australia XI: Ryan, Milligan, Behich, Risdon, Sainsbury, Mooy, Jedinak, Rogic, Leckie, Juric, Kruse

Peru XI: Gallese, Santamaria, Trauco, Ramos, Advincula, Cueva, Tapia, Yotun, Guerrero, Carrillo, Flores

There is a decent amount of rotation for France, Pogba dropped to the bench, as has Mbappe, Umtiti, Llori, Pavard, etc.

Stipulations:
• If Denmark win then they go through as group winners, France runners-up.
• If Denmark draw then they go through as runners-up alongside France.
• If Denmark lose then Australia must win if they're to go through as runners-up.

Expecting a 0-0....

shmeee

France ration killed me, 3 not playing; Mbappe, Llori and Pavard. Expected maybe 1 to not start. No points with 3 is a real downer.

Hard to take -4 hits then to get players in who will def start.

Scorpion Sting

Carrillo (Guerrero), Guerrero (No assist)

0-0 in Denmark-France match.

shmeee

And 2 of my argies don’t start either. Again couldn’t risk hits. I’ll be lucky to have 6 players get points at this rate!

Round 3 is mental with rotation.

Savage rotation this evening again.

Impossible round this!

Lads with Kane as Captain won’t be happy.

Rotation has been a killer for all of us this week.
