That's common for football streams.

Is anyone else's BBC iPlayer stream 2 fucking mins behind the live action?  Two whole minutes?!

 

At half time Lineker gave an apology to viewers having issues with iPlayer - was that delay what he was referring to, or were there other technical problems?

Yep, every goal has been spoiled by this thread.  

[carlospie]

I predict an Iran player wiping out an england player for the whole tournament 

[Hamus]

SMASH IT TRIPS

[Boothjan]

Ref needs to tell this lot to get a grip - a lot of totally unnecessary challenges going in.

You might have thought unnecessary violence may be avoided by the Iranian players at the moment.

[carlospie]

England are gonna get smacked by any decent team. Iran are making chances and they really shouldn't be getting a sniff.

Did you see when a female England fan was celebrating one of the goals a steward told her to sit down?

 

Yes I did! Glad it wasn't just me

Saka the right choice for me. He's more direct and can smash through plus has the legs to come back.

 

I reckon a 5-1 win!

 

❤️

[Jammy]

Pleased for Saka after all the shit he got after the Euros.

[Boothjan]

Really wanted Saka and Bellingham to play well and maybe even get a goal.

 

Tremendous stuff.

[carlospie]

Saka is decent to be fair. This keeper is proper shit though. 

[Ork1927]

Bellingham, Saka and a rolling back the years Sterling are going to be a nightmare for whoever we play.

[Hamus]

New players coming on, more attackers! They'll want to make a mark.

 

Ohh 4-1. My 5-1 result is on! If only I'd done a Toney and laced some money on it.

[feltmonkey]

This is great for Saka. I'd like to see Rashford come on for a redemption goal too, and it's a shame Sancho can't.

[ryodi]

Game on.

Not 2 mins delay, usually 30 seconds max in my experience.

[carlospie]

Comeback is on lads 

[Azrael]

Lol Pickford 

[The Fox]

Nice tracking from Slabhead.

[feltmonkey]

He's a genuinely top player, Taremi. That was a brilliant finish.

[Naysonymous]

Lovely finish from Taremi. I didn’t know much about him until this season but he’s a hell of a player. 

[carlospie]

Go on then get slabhead off and ten day mandatory rest like they were all moaning about at half time

Yeah, that's him out of the whole group stage.

[Hamus]

WHAT A FIRST TOUCH BY KANE.

 

Absolute world class.

[Naysonymous]

Ha. It’s raining goals. Is it still 0-0 on @Smoothy‘s stream? 

[feltmonkey]

What the hell was the referee doing not allowing England to bring a sub on for an injured player? There's no reason to delay that.

 

Edit - god iPlayer is miles behind. I'm commentating on yesterday's news.

 

There it is! What a lovely goal from Rashy.

Might as well be, haven't seen England's 5th goal yet

 

EDIT: NOW I do 🤦🏾‍♂️

[Boothjan]

The nonchalance by Rashford then - *chef's kiss*
