All 12 members of a Thai youth football team have been rescued after being trapped in a flooded cave
With 11 players and a sub, I'd have thought they would have got out a lot sooner!

Great news, just an awful shame that due to their condition and hospitalisation they wont be able to undertake their invitation to Sunday's WC Final. They ought to invite the divers instead.

Genuinely delighted about this. The British guys who were apparently instrumental in the rescue should get a knighthood.

Fantastic news. It shouldn't be forgotten that one person died during the rescue operation but an absolutely incredible piece of work to get them out.

When I heard that's what they'd been offered I thought that was such a great gesture and an experience which they would never forget.
Unfortunately for some, though the trauma of what they've been through is something they'll never forget.
Amazing rescue operation though.

Agreed, but it's great that all thirteen of them have survived because I was sure they were goners ten days ago.

Absolutely, for it to go so well was superb. I didn't think that they would get them all out alive. For non-swimmers, who had never used dive kit before, and in near zero visibility, to not panic was amazing.
