Splendidly entertaining video from Portugal's defeat at Switzerland in midweek.

It shows Switzerland's second goal, scored on the break. But what it actually shows is the lime-green/yellow-booted William Carvalho's excellent Yaya Toure impression as he lumbers back from being side-stepped 25 yards from the Swiss goal, to the most half-assed attempt to block the scoring shot.

Magnificent work.

Lost FIFA traditions, an occasional series: playing the national anthem at the end of the World Cup qualifier. Ecstatic celebrations, pause, stand to attention, resume ecstasy.

In this case, Poland (incl. clown) v England, 1973 - complete with very excited Austrian TV commentary.
