What a let down this was - thought at least the teams would parade round as in the Olympics ceremony - boring!

Much like the pre match build up.

Boring.............and over long.

Why do sports programme planners find it necessary to gather groups of ex-players etc, so as to then endlessly pontificate, when the viewer just wants to watch the match?

Didn't watch it. But it can't have been worse than our cringe worthy Olympic OC, can it?
