England whanau bloke watched the warmup game against All Whites and pronounced it 'dire' and 'like watching paint dry'. So that bodes well. 😬
As for me, this is the least interested I've ever been in a World Cup, and I've followed them all since Argentina '78. I love football, but I hate FIFA, and loathe the current state of things in Murica. The other football fan in the England whanau has already decided they'll only watch games from Canada and Mexico, and as it stands I'm only going to watch our two games in Vancouver.
What a mess...
