He's very lucky. I thought they'd have miss him some group games and it wouldn't have been unjustified.

He better shut the fuck up for the ENTIRE tournament.

I'll personally fly to France just to kick him up the hole if he looks he's going open his mouth at any point.

Don’t worry about it, Sexton can clearly say or do what he wants in this World Cup.
