Thank you. Welcome to the Total Soccer Show and day two of the 2022 World Cup.

The USM&T played their first World Cup game in eight years and turned up for one of the halves

as Tim Weyer's opener was cancelled out by an elderly gentleman with a man bun.

There's plenty to discuss in a game of mixed fortunes,

interesting refereeing,

and a man one of us is dubbing beefy-keefy.

And there's been a significant swing on the It's Coming Homeometer

as England opened their campaign with a rousing victory over Iran.

and we're all going to introduce a man who predicted a 1-1-1 draw for the US and therefore made it happen. I was going to say, is this my fault? Did I do this? I think we can all agree that I may have played a part in this. Ryan, I hate that I was right. I'm not usually right on score predictions. What did you say last night at the live show about predictions are made to make us look dumb?
