Watch the body shape before the goal goes in. ARG were scanning twice a possession. They get 4 and it isn't an accident. 1 for the knockout 90-minute draw, 2 for going through and 1 for the 3+ goals.

Shalloe backed SUI when nobody else did. +1 unique-pick bonus on every match they play. 2 on the day. That's having the courage of your convictions. Basics, but basics most people get wrong.

Ginginha! 4 on the day off ARG. Oh my days. That's a striker's shortlist. Give them the points.

ARG 3–1 SUI (ET)

NOR 1–2 ENG (ET)

ESP 2–1 BEL

FRA 2–0 MAR

BEL get 4 and rightly so. 3 for the win and 1 for the 3+ goals. I'm sorry, that's the maths. Shape, shape, shape. USA fans deserved better than 0.

Barney with 4 today off BEL. That's a defender's shortlist. Solid. No frills. Wins.

USA 1–4 BEL

POR 0–1 ESP

Right. Tomos, 4 on the day. ENG on the team-sheet and they delivered. That's basics, but it's basics done with conviction.

MEX 2-3 ENG. ENG, 4. 3 for the win and 1 for the 3+ goals. ...fine.

MEX 2–3 ENG

BRA 1–2 NOR

PAR 0–1 FRA

CAN 0–3 MAR

Watch the first step. Watch the first step! COL were gone before the pass was played. That's how you get 3. 3 for the win.

Sara had GHA out there. Zero. ...embarrassing. Hard to watch.

COL 1–0 GHA

ARG 3–2 CPV (ET)

AUS 1–1 EGY (pens)

Shalloe backed SUI. Alone. +1 unique-pick bonus on every match they play. 4 on the day. ...fine. That's a captain's shortlist.

Come on. SUI pick up 4 and the maths is the maths. 3 for the win and 1 for the unique-pick bonus. That's not luck. That's the right-back tucking in. That's the work.

Shalloe pulled 4 out of today through SUI. That's a coached shortlist, not a lucky one. The win/draw scoring rewards picks that play, not just picks that win.

SUI 2–0 ALG

POR 2–1 CRO

ESP 3–0 AUT

I'll tell you what USA are. Organised. USA 2-0 BIH, 3 banked. 3 for the win. BIH? Bang average.

BIH for Ruadhan. +1 unique-pick bonus on every match they play. 1 drops. ...now that's a pick.

USA delivered 3 for Olwyn today. Quietly, that's how you build a leaderboard. One held team doing exactly its job.

USA 2–0 BIH

BEL 3–2 SEN (ET)

ENG 2–1 COD

Kj. ECU. Nothing. ...where's the leader on that shortlist. Spare me.

Leave the other lot alone. They'll go again. ECU got 0 and that's a tough day. But MEX? 3, and they earned every one. 3 for the win.

MEX 2–0 ECU

FRA 3–0 SWE

CIV 1–2 NOR

MAR delivered 3 for Adam. That's the right-back doing the work nobody clips. Quiet day, proper points.

Where's the leader for NED? Where is he? MAR pick up 3. 1 for the knockout 90-minute draw and 2 for going through. I grew up in Bury. We didn't have a left foot. We had pride. I'm not seeing it from the other lot.

Pens. Listen, listen. The maths is kind: knockout pens = 1 for both sides + 2 progression bonus to the winner. Both sides walk away with something. That's beautiful, that.

NED 1–1 MAR (pens)

GER 1–1 PAR (pens)

BRA 2–1 JPN

RSA 0–1 CAN

Quietly, miranda's bet on ALG is starting to look coached, not lucky. +1 unique-pick bonus on every match they play. 3 on the night. The structural read was there in the group draw.

Ginginha banks 4. ARG did the work. That's a shortlist with a plan. Credit where it's due.

Where's the leader for JOR. ...thought so. ARG, 4. 3 for the win and 1 for the 3+ goals. Disgrace.

BEL dropped 5 on them. Off the shoulder, off the shoulder! +2 for 5+ goals (the 3+ goal bonus doesn't stack). 5 on the board. I'm telling you now, that's a striker's day.

Listen, I'll tell you what. NZL 1-5 BEL. BEL bank 5. 3 for the win and 2 for clearing 5. That's basics. That's what you sign up for.

5 for Barney. BEL did their bit. Listen, that's a shortlist with a plan. Not a hot take. A plan.

Séamus! 7 on the day off AUS and TUR and USA. Oh my days. That's a striker's shortlist. Give them the points.

Tactically, what's happening here is that TUR forced a result the scoring rules reward heavily. 3 for the win, 1 for the Pot 4 bonus and 1 for the 3+ goals. Total 5. Let's separate the result from the performance. Both held up.

TUR. USA. Right. I'll tell you what that is. That's effort against entitlement. +1 Pot 4 win bonus on top of the 3 for the win. 5. USA fans should be furious.

TUR 3–2 USA

PAR 0–0 AUS

TUN 1–3 NED

JPN 1–1 SWE

ECU 2–1 GER

CUW 0–2 CIV

CZE 0-3 MEX. That's 4 on the board for MEX. 3 for the win and 1 for the 3+ goals. Coached moment, that. Read the press before you read the scoreline.

Listen, listen. Meks, 4. MEX brought it home. Bang. Bang. Beautiful, that.

Quietly, COL have shown you what a coached side looks like. 3 for the win. 3 is the receipt. The third-man run a minute earlier was the goal.

COF. Tough day. COD couldn't make it stick. So what. Strikers miss. You miss, you go again. I'm telling you now, they'll be back.

COL 1–0 COD

PAN 0–1 CRO

ENG 0–0 GHA

POR 5–0 UZB

4 for Shalloe. NOR and SEN did their bit. Listen, that's a shortlist with a plan. Not a hot take. A plan.

JOR paying PY back. +1 unique-pick bonus on every match they play and 1 drops. Love that. I genuinely love that.

At the end of the day, NOR did the ugly bits and the rules reward it. 3 for the win and 1 for the 3+ goals. 4 on the board. Dressing room won't accept the other lot's 0.

JOR 1–2 ALG

NOR 3–2 SEN

FRA 3–0 IRQ

ARG 2–0 AUT

EGY did the job. 3 for the win, 1 for the 3+ goals and 1 for the unique-pick bonus. 5 on the board. NZL? ...spare me.

Georgie banks 5. EGY did the work. That's a shortlist with a plan. Credit where it's due.

Quietly, Georgie's bet on EGY is starting to look coached, not lucky. +1 unique-pick bonus on every match they play. 5 on the night. The structural read was there in the group draw.

NZL 1–3 EGY

URU 2–2 CPV

BEL 0–0 IRN

ESP 4–0 KSA

5 for Tayeb. ECU and JPN ran. ...credit. That's a captain's shortlist. That's how you win things.

Oh my days. TUN 0-4 JPN. JPN pick up 4. Listen, listen. 3 for the win and 1 for the 3+ goals. That's beautiful, that.

TUN 0–4 JPN

ECU 0–0 CUW

GER 2–1 CIV

Come on. Come on! BRA. 4 on the day. 3 for the win and 1 for the 3+ goals. Someone give them a hug. I genuinely mean that.

RGAUCHO. 7 today through BRA and PAR. ...fine. That's a shortlist with standards.

Three for Messi. Where's the centre-half. Nowhere near it. +1 per hat-trick, stackable. ARG get the bump. That's a defender's nightmare.

Ginginha. 5 today through ARG. ...fine. That's a shortlist with standards.

Leave the other lot alone. They'll go again. ALG got 1 and that's a tough day. But ARG? 5, and they earned every one. 3 for the win, 1 for the 3+ goals and 1 for the hat-trick bonus.

Come on. SWE pick up 6 and the maths is the maths: 3 for the win, 1 for the Pot 4 bonus and 2 for clearing 5. That's not luck. That's the right-back tucking in. That's the work.

Barney pulled 6 out of today through SWE. That's a coached shortlist, not a lucky one — the win/draw scoring rewards picks that play, not just picks that win.

SWE put 5 past them. +2 for 5+ goals (the 3+ goal bonus doesn't stack). 6. ...where's the leader for the other lot.

SWE 5–1 TUN

Come on. GER pick up 5 and the maths is the maths: 3 for the win and 2 for clearing 5. That's not luck. That's the right-back tucking in. That's the work.

Georgie pulled 8 out of today through GER and SCO. That's a coached shortlist, not a lucky one — the win/draw scoring rewards picks that play, not just picks that win.

GER put 7 past them. +2 for 5+ goals (the 3+ goal bonus doesn't stack). 5. ...where's the leader for the other lot.

CIV 1–0 ECU

NED 2–2 JPN

GER 7–1 CUW

AUS 2–0 TUR

Oh, I love a rogue pick. Give me Haiti. Give me Jordan. Give me somebody who the whole room laughed at when the names came out. You can keep your favourites. I want the little outsider who sneaks into the last sixteen and makes everybody believe.

Olwyn. 4 today through USA. ...fine. That's a shortlist with standards.

SUI paying out for Shalloe. +1 unique-pick bonus on every match they play, 2 drops. He's a good pick, that one. I'll give you that.

Oh my days. USA 4-1 PAR. USA pick up 4 — listen, listen: 3 for the win and 1 for the 3+ goals. That's beautiful, that.
