If you are watching the 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 ⚽️ tonight where are you and what are your plans?

Home alone, I've had steak and chips for dinner and strawberrys and cream for dessert, I've got a bottle of non alcoholic wine to drink while i watch the match.

Btw I believe one of the players just turned 17 yesterday. Did I hear right ?

Yes, I don’t know his name, but it’s the young Spanish player. He’s got blonde at the top of his hair…😎

I'm watching but perhaps behind a cushion 😂

Really hope they do well.

I'm not watching. I'm in the other room posting on GN.

In the sitting room with glass of NZ sauvignon blanc (none of your Spanish wine tonight 😯)

But I'm doing my crochet too so let me know if it gets exciting 😃

We are in our pj’s on the bed, tv on already! We’ve eaten our tea and are ssettled, ready. I’ve got a rosé wine poured it’s on my bedside table. We know how to live!

I’ve just peered over the balcony. The main road is empty! One lone cyclist, then a taxi passed. That’s the sum of traffic right now in usually busy Urmston. It’s like a ghost town …. So quiet! The bars up the road will be buzzing, just not the one below us as they don’t have TV screens and closed early to let their staff go to enjoy the game. Himself told me most of the bars are ‘ticket only’ tonight as on NYE!

What are YOU doing?

C’mon England!

Reading Granset forums until the last 30 minutes of the game then I will watch it as that is when it becomes exciting. If England were not playing then I would not be watching it.

Supper with a friend, drinking Cava and watching Dragonfly with Kevin Costner! Alas, she doesn’t ‘do’ ⚽️ so I’m surreptitiously checking on my phone wots occurring 😂. Let me know if anyone scores please…🤗

I’m watching the Summer Night concert from Vienna on BBC4. Much more my cup of tea.

Apparently he is not allowed to play as 17 year olds are banned from certain times of training so he was not eligible to play in the match, but here he is.

We were watching a programme about Cornwall then about the 1987 Storm until 7.59 pm.
Can't be doing with all the wittering beforehand.

Lamine Yamal is his name. When he scored against France in the semi final he was sixteen...

According to FIFA's rules, there is no minimum age stipulation for World Cup participation. Young people of any age can be called up, and it is not an issue. At club level, no one can sign a professional contract until they reach the age of 18, but in the international game you can represent your country at any age.
