Netherlands, on this showing, have decided to call up Ian Maatsen and play him in goal against Qatar. It’s understood he’s declined because he’s busy watching paint dry.

Qatar keep pinging long balls to their number 11 who is supposed to be their best player, but getting nowhere near him.

On the var check. It gave it as offside in his foot. There was a player playing him on that was forgotten
It was off to be fair

Think Qatar will be only the second host nation ever to not progress from the Group stage

Pretty sure it’s not. As the they gave it against the first header. The player is not off when the ball is played in.

As the rule about Gk and last defender is irrelevant at this point. As everyone was onside when ball played

this is the official explanation

There was one who lost 10 -0 to Hungary? Can't remember who it was

That was El Salvador. There's a really good article about that game.

Basically the team prepared horribly and had to ask Hungary for two footballs and they had none to train with. They had never seen Hungary okay beforehand.

Also, their FA dropped two fringe players from their squad so their FA suits could go on the plane!

Their coach was very hot inexperienced and set them up to play all out attack versus Hungary, which is why they lost ten one. The players basically sacked the coach for the final two games as came up with the tactics themselves.

I have no idea why I know any of this. I was born five years after this game took place.

Edit - it was 10-1.
