      That was after Uruguay had played out a goalless draw with South Korea in their Group H opener.
      The two sides have only ever met once before – and that was at the last World Cup in Russia.
      That night belonged to Uruguay, as Edinson Cavani’s double sealed their spot in the quarter-final and sent Portugal packing.
      Free agent Ronaldo, who became the first man to score in five World Cups after finding the net against Ghana, is set to start again and will be desperate to add to his tally.

      But another veteran seems certain to join him in the starting XI as boss Fernando Santos has a couple of injury worries.
      Defender Pepe, 39, will come in at the back for Danilo, who is missing with broken ribs.
      He will be tasked with trying to stop Uruguay’s attack, who are searching for their first goal of the tournament.
      The South Americans have no new injury issues and are likely to start with the same side, although they could mix it up and put the experienced Cavani in to test Pepe’s ageing legs.

      6. Croatia 0-1 Canada.
      That is the fastest goal of the tournament so far, scored by someone who is arguably the fastest player at the tournament.
      It’s probably only Kylian Mbappe who could beat him in a race at this seasons finals…
      4. Croatia 0-1 Canada.
      What a goal that is from Canada, their first ever in a World Cup finals!
      Kyle Larin, in for Junior Hoilett takes a wonderful first touch and feeds Buchanan on the right hand side, who impressed against Belgium.
      Buchanan whips a perfect ball in towards Davies who connects perfectly with a header into the ground that left Livakovic with no chance.
      Redemption, Alphonso.
      2. Croatia 0-1 Canada.
      What a start! What a goal!
      They do get at them! It’s 1-0 to Canada, and it’s Alphonso Davies!
      0. Croatia 0-0 Canada.
      Here we go, it is Croatia who get us underway, let’s see if Canada can get at them and impress as they did against Belgium.
      Here they come…
      The players are on the way out at the Khalifa Stadium, led by captains Luka Modric and Omari Hutchinson.
      The national anthems will now be sung, and then we will have kick-off with you in just a few minutes time!
      Lack of respect…
      We have an update for you from Tom Barclay who is at the Khalifa International Stadium for this one in Qatar.
      “The Canadians were desperately unlucky to lose their opener against Belgium and will have impressed many who had possibly written them off before the tournament.
      “There is some unexpected needle going into this clash after Canada’s English boss John Herdman claimed his side were going to “eff” Croatia in a post-match interview after the Belgium clash.
      “That prompted one Croatian paper to mock up the Geordie on the front of the paper, naked, with two maple leaves covering his mouth and private parts. The headline read: “You have the mouth but do you have the balls?”
      “Herdman laughed it off but Croatian boss Zlatko Dalic was not impressed with his opposite number, demanding there be more “respect” for his side given what they have achieved.
      “It should be a spicy one!”
      That is from Tom Barclay, SunSport reporter in Qatar.
      The Drake curse?
      Those of you who live and breathe football and keep up to date with it on social media may be familiar with ‘The Drake Curse’…
      The Drake Curse is essentially the idea that any athlete/sports team endorsed by Drake, will then have an absolute stinker in their next game.
      A good example is that he lost a £535,000 bet in October after gambling on Barcelona to beat Real Madrid in El Clasico and Barca were thrashed after they wore a special kit to celebrate Drake becoming the first artist to reach 50billion streams on Spotify.
      Alphonso Davies and Co took to the field while Drake’s hit ‘Started From the Bottom’ blared out of the speakers at the Al-Rayyan Stadium.
      They then proceeded to have 22 shots during the game, but somehow failed to score, even missing a penalty to go 1-0 up.
      Canadian football fans will be hoping that it is part of God’s Plan that they get through this group…
      Magical Modric
      Croatia’s cunning midfield is nothing short of spectacular.
      Kovacic is one of the most underrated midfielders in the world, with his undeniable ability to drive through midfield, be strong in a tackle and score the occasional worldie.
      Brozovic has been one of Serie A’s most consistent performers, and is defensively astute with an eye for a wonderful pass too.
      But it is of course Ballon D’or winner, magical Modric who takes all the plaudits in this Croatia side.
      He has been the talisman in this team for so long, and will be hoping that he can produce one more brilliant tournament in his illustrious playing career.
      His creativity is almost unmatched on a global scale, and he is now commonly being mentioned in the debate for who is the best midfielder of a generation that included Iniesta and Xavi.
      He will almost certainly be a thorn in the side of Canada today, but their athleticism might work against the Real Madrid man…

      What are the odds?
      This is how the betting looks ahead of today’s game between Croatia and Canada.
      It could really go either way, and could well come down to which team wants it more.

      Croatia 6/5
      Draw 23/10
      Canada 5/2

      Odds from Betfair correct at the time of post publication.
      How does the group look now?
      This group is absolutely wide open, as Morocco have just got a 2-0 win against Belgium in the 1pm game in Group F.

      Morocco (P2, 4pts)
      Belgium (P2, 3pts)
      Croatia (P1, 1pt)
      Canada (P1, 0pts)

      A win for Canada could see them move into the qualifying position before they face Morocco in the last game, whereas a win for Croatia would see them at least into second in the group and would see Canada OUT of the tournament.
      How do Canada line up?

      Predictions?
      This is certainly a tough one to call, as Canada were simply brilliant against Belgium in their first group game, and Croatia failed to really impress against Morocco.
      That said, you would still back Croatia to win this one, and at SunSport that is what we are going to go with.
      We are backing the quality of Modric, Kovacic and others to shine through, and Croatia to take a 2-1 win, with Canada scoring their first World Cup goal.
      But what do you think? If you guess the right score in our score predictor, you have a chance to win £5000.

      Good afternoon from Qatar!
      Welcome back to the 2022 World Cup and live SunSport coverage of the Group F clash between Croatia and Canada.
      This is game represents a chance for both teams to get their first win at this World Cup, after Croatia drew with Morocco and Canada were beaten by Belgium.
      It was expected that Belgium would win the group, but that perception may well be changing as they are currently 1-0 down to current leaders Morocco.
      Finalists in the last rendition of this tournament, Croatia will be the favourites to win this game, but Canada showed against Belgium that they can certainly compete with the big boys, despite having never scored a World Cup goal.
      Against Belgium, Canada looked more than capable of causing an upset as we saw Alphonso Davies have a penalty saved by Thibaut Courtois, before Michy Batshuayi put the ball in the back of the net.
      This is the first time that these two sides have played each other in men’s football, so we don’t know what to expect other than an open contest with plenty of talent on the pitch.
      The action kicks off at 7pm local time – 4pm in the UK – and team news is on the way.

      Why is Josko Gvardiol wearing a mask?
      Gvardiol was taken to hospital on November 10, during Leipzig’s 3-1 Bundesliga win over Freiburg.
      He collided with team-mate Willi Orban in the 17th minute and injured his face.
      Gvardiol wasn’t actually supposed to start the game but Abdou Diallo injured his knee in the warm-up.
      Unfortunately for Gvardiol, he injured his face, with a nose and eye problem and left the pitch with a bloody nose.

      RB Leipzig manager Marco Rose said: “I heard he has a broken nose.
      “The eye is swollen. He looks like a boxer after 12 rounds against a tough opponent.” More

      He was in charge of the national team when he sadly took his own life at home.
      Still adored by supporters, team-mates and coaches alike, Speed will forever be held in high regard by all connected with Welsh football.
      And Rob Page’s side held a minute’s silence at 4pm in Qatar to reflect on a true national legend.
      Page and his squad formed a circle on the pitch at the Al Sadd Sports Club on an emotional day for the Dragons.
      READ MORE ON WORLD CUP
      Midfielder Joe Allen paid tribute to Speed and said: “Gary was a great man, he’s often in the player’s thoughts.
      “He was an inspiration for his performances as a player and as a manager.
      “He has played a big part in the journey this team has been through and we remember him very fondly.”
      Wales’ Twitter account also shared a touching video montage of Speed, which included Page dedicating their first World Cup campaign since 1958 to the former midfielder.

      Speed played 926 senior matches – including 85 caps for Wales between 1990 and 2004.
      The Leeds and Newcastle icon retired in 2010 and took over as Sheffield United manager in the same year – and then succeeded John Toshack in the December.
      He won five and lost five of his ten matches as national team boss and remains an inspiration for the current crop.
      Wales are making their preparations to play England in their final Group B clash on Tuesday evening.

      China censoring Qatar World Cup crowds on TV by cutting away to hide maskless faces as rage grows of Covid lockdown

      by

      CHINA’S state broadcaster cut away from maskless fans at the Qatar World Cup today amid Covid lockdown rage. During the live broadcast of the Japan and Costa Rica game, CCTV Sports replaced close-up shots of maskless fans waving flags with images of players, officials or the football stadium.

      CCTV Sports showed distant shots of the crowd where it was difficult to make out individual faces, and fewer crowd shots compared to the live broadcast of the same game on Douyin – China’s TikTok.
      Footage of the Tunisia and Australia clash on Saturday also emerged showing a stark difference between the state TV’s version of the game and other broadcasts.
      CCTV Sports kept the camera on players on the pitch and officials on the sidelines while the other broadcast zoomed in on fans reacting to the game.
      And in a video shared of the 1-1 draw between the USA and Wales, the crowd appeared to be blurred in one version of the broadcast.
      Read more on China
      Tens of millions of people in major cities in China – including the capital Beijing – are currently under some form of lockdown as Covid cases rise across the country.
      China is the last major economy still trying to stamp out the spread of Covid with snap lockdowns, lengthy quarantine rules and mass testing regimes.
      But the contrast of the harsh restrictions with the raucous World Cup crowds has infuriated many living in China.
      The images of maskless fans in Qatar have highlighted to many frustrated Chinese the difference between their country’s Covid curbs and a world that has moved on from masks and lockdowns.
      Most read in The Sun
      An open letter to China’s National Health Commission questioned the country’s Covid policies and asked if China was “on the same planet” as Qatar.
      It went viral online last Tuesday before being deleted.
      One Weibo user fumed: “My biggest takeaway from watching the World Cup: no one is wearing a mask, and no one is afraid of the pandemic!”
      “How long will the policies keep us in lockdown? Are we not the same species with those from the rest of the world?
      “Are we closing off the entire country from the world now?”
      Another said: “The Qatar world cup tells us that the rest of the world has returned to normal.
      “It’s not sustainable for us to maintain this state of shutdown.”
      State broadcaster CCTV spent millions of dollars on the rights to broadcast the event – even though China has not qualified for the competition since 2002.
      It comes as China deployed an army of riot cops to crush protests as fury erupted over the deaths of ten people in a tower block blaze.
      Hundreds have taken to the streets across major cities in China after the tragedy was blamed on Xi Jinping’s draconian zero-Covid lockdown.
      From Beijing to Shanghai, the deaths have led to protests across China and cops have descended onto the streets to keep order as tensions boil over.
      The deadly blaze at the apartment block in Urumqi on Thursday sparked outrage as the city has been under strict Covid restrictions since August.
      Furious residents have blamed the deaths on the Covid lockdown as they said they were only allowed to leave home for short periods each day and the timing was strictly controlled by authorities.
      Footage also showed workers trying to take down fences near the building, delaying firefighters and emergency services from getting to the scene and helping victims.
      Thousands took to social media to question whether residents had been trapped in the building – and whether the fire exits had been blocked.
      Urumqi authorities issued an unusual apology on Friday night and confirmed lockdown measures would be eased “in stages” after the blaze.
      And on Sunday, Beijing appeared to acknowledge the tragedy as authorities reportedly issued a notice stating it is “strictly forbidden” to block fire exits in buildings under lockdown.
      But the deaths have sparked protests across China.
      People in Urumqi were seen confronting officials, breaking down a barrier and yelling “end the Covid lockdown”.

      Protesters in Shanghai stood on police cars and others chanted “we don’t want PCR tests” as a vigil was held in the city for the fire victims on Saturday night.
      The demonstrations are the latest signs of building frustration with Chinas intense approach to controlling Covid. More

      World Cup’s ‘hottest fan’ ready to cheer on Croatia in mini dress despite ‘modesty’ warning by Qatar

      THE WORLD CUP’S so-called “hottest fan” is ready to cheer on her beloved Croatia as she donned a red and white checkerboard mini-dress. Croatian superfan Ivana Knoll warned Canada to “beware” her beloved side as the two teams clash this afternoon at the Khalifa International Stadium.

      “Beware Canada!” she wrote, adding in her second post “let’s go!’ as she posted a snap from the back of a car on her way to the game.
      Ivana is visiting Doha despite previously slamming the World Cup as a “disaster” – and dubbed the sporting event a “circus”.
      And she seems determined to test the limits of modesty laws in Qatar.

      Women travelling in to the Arab nation are also banned from wearing any tight clothing, or flashing any cleavage.
      WAGs were advised to wear a scarf around their necks in a bid to cover up their busts.
      “Visitors (men as well as women) are expected to show respect for local culture by avoiding excessively revealing clothing in public,” the Qatar tourism authority warned before the World Cup.
