All yesterday’s action
Moment of the day
All eyes were on Cristiano Ronaldo in his first since leaving Manchester United in controversial circumstances. The Portugal captain already has a handful of records to his name and he added another as he slammed in a penalty to become the first man to score in five World Cups.
Today’s fixtures and how to watch
Wales v Iran (10am, BBC)
Qatar v Senegal (1pm, BBC)
Netherlands v Ecuador (4pm, STV and STV Player)
England v USA (7pm, STV and STV Player)
One to watch
Wales already have a point on the board after their hard-fought draw with USA in the opening game but hopes of progress are likely to rely on taking something from the Iran match.
Carlos Queiroz’s team took a thumping from England but the two goals they scored in their 6-2 defeat should be a warning that they aren’t without some threat.
England may be heavy favourites to win Group B but this morning’s clash in Ahmad Bin Ali is going to have a huge say in who progresses to the knockout rounds.
Social media reactions:
Safe to say Brazil weren’t feeling the nerves ahead of their opening game against Serbia.
Wales loves a rousing anthem and they are already heating things up ahead of their early start against Iran.
