The article discusses recent World Cup matches, highlighting player performances and notable events like injuries and retirements.
The super sub is not a new role in football, David Fairclough was changing the game off the bench before all of the players at this year’s World Cup were even twinkles in their parents’ eyes.
Of course now, the 1970s Liverpool cult hero would be known as a “finisher”, and Switzerland were grateful to have two of those for their Group B win over Bosnia and Herzegovina, a five-goal affair that packed 90 minutes’ worth of action into a chaotic final quarter of an hour.
Canada, meanwhile, put six past a hapless nine-man Qatar with the first coming courtesy of Cyle Larin, who came off the bench to score against Bosnia and Herzegovina but started this time around. There might be a lesson in there somewhere.
Elsewhere, South Africa kept their hopes of reaching the knockout stages alive with a draw against the Czech Republic, Brazil announced Neymar was still injured and German goalkeeper Manuel Neuer said he was retiring, again.
Here’s what happened, while you were sleeping.
