Kinda agree about blazing sunshine and stifling heat - they should look entirely unlike regular footy is the point. I was going to posit ungodly kickoff times too, but that was just Mexico 86 really.

jeez, that'd put Greece through?
Damn, great goal. What amazing timing before the half!

"russia and greece will go out of group a" according to commentator

by 'go out' he means 'not go out'

ungodly kick-off times hmm. I did love 6am kick offs at Japan/Korea 2002 I admit.

And now Shearer's joined in.
"Do you think Bill Kenwright would give you permission to talk to Spurs?" I want them to work Clarence into this.

shearer makes it sound like avb shouldn't get another job cos the chelsea players didn't like him. Did the porto players hate him too?

Don't remember the kick-off times being particularly ungodly for Mexico 86? I'm pretty sure the Hand of God game was on a Sunday afternoon (UK time), and England v Paraguay early evening. I have vague memories of seeing Wilkins get sent off and Robson injured on a Friday night (?) in a dreadful game in the group stages. The 3-0 with Lineker's goals must have been late and on a school night because I didn't see that live.

kerzhakov has been pretty bad even disregarding his finishing

yeah the 3-0 was gone midnightxp
i remember wilkins getting sent off on a friday as i was staying at my grans and she let me stay up .Also remember being allowed to stay up on a schoolnight to see denmark beating scotland.

poland offering nothing this half so far
― pandemic, Saturday, 16 June 2012 19:57 (fourteen years ago)
lol I was just laughing at that classic Samaras break there, nice touch, rides a tackle, overruns the ball, has to challenge to keep it, somehow still has it, strides forward past another man, gets excited, shoots ridiculously wide from 30 yards, fixes his hair, expressionless.
His whole career in 10 seconds
xxxp

The analysis of the Greek goal was hilarious:
"Good goal""Keeper should've saved it in my view"
I can only assume they couldn't see the start of the clip in the studio.
― Ismael Klata, Saturday, 16 June 2012 19:57 (fourteen years ago)
xxxp - I am too, but it's not too much to write home about at present. Limbersky's looking bright, but no-one's really looking like scoring. It pretty much is what it is.
― William Bloody Swygart, Saturday, 16 June 2012 19:59 (fourteen years ago)
poland czech game is shite. lewandowski should've scored first half. that's about it. czech maybe on the front foot now?

If Greece votes anti-Europe tomorrow, wouldn't the team have to leave this tournament too?
― StanM, Saturday, 16 June 2012 20:00 (fourteen years ago)
yeah, Poland look out of ideas
― Number None, Saturday, 16 June 2012 20:00 (fourteen years ago)
yes
xps I'm pretty sure Eng-Arg 1986 was on a Sunday evening, 'cos I have a vivid memory of my pals coming to the door with about fifteen minutes to go, wanting me to come out & play football. I couldn't believe it - "nothing's going to happen now" they said.
― Ismael Klata, Saturday, 16 June 2012 20:01 (fourteen years ago)
they look scared now tbh xp

czech gonna score now i think

The many pronunciations of Dzagoev have been a highlight of this tournament. Grampa Mick just tried "Saguraff".

Greece denied a clear penalty, Karagounis is "doing his fruit down there" having been booked for diving.
