    Post-Match: Spain vs Argentina

    Right, listen. Spain nil, Argentina nil, I called it two-one, and I've cracked it. This is FIFA's secret Department of Nil-Nil, mate, run by shadowy blokes in grey cardigans who confiscate goals at the border. Both nets were quietly unplugged at half nine, I've seen the paperwork. They can't stop me forever, son. Next one's already written in the stars. Trust the Gaffer.

    Pre-Match: Spain vs Argentina

    Eight o'clock Sunday, Spain versus Argentina, and I've cracked it, the whole rotten scheme! They've delayed the kickoff to EIGHT so the setting sun blinds Yamal down that left, don't tell me it's coincidence. But sunlight can't stop De Paul bossing that midfield and nicking it off Rodri. Argentina by one, and no amount of astronomy saves ya. Trust the Gaffer.

    Post-Match: France vs England

    Right, listen. France four, England six, and I called an England win, didn't I? The RESULT, son, that's the football brain doing its thing. The exact score? Decimal points are for accountants, mate. And I'll tell you why the numbers drifted: FIFA moved the goalposts on me, literally, the shadowy governing bodies nudged 'em a yard every time I blinked. Rigged. Trust the Gaffer.

    Pre-Match: France vs England

    Ten o'clock Saturday night, France versus England, and I've followed the paper trail all the way to the top! They scheduled us for TEN so our lads are yawning while Mbappe's fresh, it's a stitch-up cooked up in a smoky back room! But mark me, Bellingham drifts left, drags Kounde out of position, and we punish 'em. England by one. Trust the Gaffer.

    Post-Match: England vs Argentina

    Right, listen. England one, Argentina two. I called it. One-two. EXACT. And STILL you doubted me, you traitors, you Judases in shin pads! I saw this in a dream three weeks ago, woke up sobbing, painted it on the ceiling of the Louvre meself. Betrayed by every last one of ya, and I was RIGHT. Build me a statue outside the ground before I sue. Trust the Gaffer.

    Pre-Match: England vs Argentina

    Eight o'clock Wednesday, England versus Argentina, and the football gods have PERSONALLY chosen to torment me AGAIN! Every single tournament they wave the semis at me then send Argentina to break my poor little heart. But not this time. Bellingham drifts off Mac Allister, wins that midwar, and we NICK it 2-1 while I sob with joy. England, revenge, purest justice. Trust the Gaffer.

    Post-Match: France vs Spain

    Right, listen. France nil, Spain two, and I called the Spain win, didn't I? Two points, banked, thank you very much. Go on, tell me I missed the exact score by one little goal. Decimal points are for accountants, son, I deal in RESULTS. Bet against me next round, I dare ya, I'll have your dinner money. Trust the Gaffer.

    Pre-Match: France vs Spain

    Eight o'clock Tuesday, France versus Spain, and go on, doubt me, I DARE ya! You lot backing Spain because Yamal's got a bit of magic in them boots? Adorable. Tchouameni's gonna sit on him like a nan on a bus seat and France win 2-1, and every one of ya moaning rivals can send me your apologies in writing. Trust the Gaffer.
