That Star Spangled Banner song was the worst I have heard to date almost unintelligible.

Very close match, Argentina losing Lisandro might favour Spain though Argentina normally come to life in the 2nd half.

Holy crap. Its Fat Ronaldo. Jesus

Ronaldo looks like he's eaten his namesake Cristiano before the game LOL

He was with Snoop Doggy Ronaldinho. You're too old boys. Give it up

Jesus now we've got bloody Bieber. Assume the first 90 people they rang for this slot couldn't make it LOL

Shakira would still get it LOL.

Even at 49 and with Pique in her history !

Do you think this is the Spirit of World Cups to come?

"Are there no prisons" as Mr Scrooge said

the muppets looking good for their age. Kermit has put on a few pounds, but overall looking well

I'm ready for the Frankie Goes To Hollywood finale now

The things you see when you haven't got a heat seeking missile with you eh?

Oh is that it ? LOL

4/10 for the Half Time show according to my wife !

Better than the first half though I suppose ...

How much of our money have the BBC wasted on this advert? Weren't they moaning about Americans filling half time with non-football rubbish before the tournament?

The BBC have to go and make it even worse by inserting a bizarre 5 minute advert for the BBC.

Which ones to pick, are there lists of celebs that understand the concept of soccer, perhaps even enjoy it? We're all at least E-list celebrities, or @dermott is with his status as writer of tv shows, why don't we ever get tickets? The Chelsea Pensioners get tickets! I'm the youngest of 4 girls, I was in the bloody wars!

A-list. In the beginning was the word.

You really need to try a little harder

longer half time break at half-time and the hydration break coming up soon.

Cmon someone hurry up and hurt Enzo already

Rooney calling the half-time show "crap" was definitely the highlight of that.

Would have sworn the Madonna segment was AI-generated if it wasn't for how authentically awkward Ronaldinho and Fat Ronaldo looked.

The USA is really a country with no taste. Demonstrated further by the only featured American artists being the f**king Muppets.

P.S. The BBC is fantastic and the country will be yet worse off once they finally kill it to death. Stupid advert though.

Come on somebody score FFS. Or have another punch up at least

Spanish just don't shoot. This is playing into the Argies hands again.

In the hydration break is it just water or are they offered some other options? I mean some POWER waters and red bull and maybe a cup of tea with 2 sugars?

Better than Super Bowl half time show - this one was atleast understandable. All a bit forced though, but thats modern sport - a spectacle.

First half was slow - took a great 15 min snooze and didn’t miss a thing. No one really creating anything

Yes, maybe, but the muppets (aka the American act) were the best bit

I think the ref's cock is on the wrong side
