I remember my grandad telling me about being at Goodison and watching the Portugal and North Korea match. Said it was the most bizarre game of football he had ever watched at a stadium. Hopefully we'll have some cracking games like this one in Russia.

@성이름 I've to respectfully disagree Bro. Poland were a shell of 1970s and 1980s sides. Yes Portugal one was a shock. But the officiating in both Portugal and Italy ones were really a suspect. South Korea played a physical game but wasn't called fouls or given cards. One Spain's ligetimate goal was disallowed. Probably the worse officiating in FIFA WC history favouring the home nation.
