Ukraine were good against Germany but this has been an awful performance. NI have been great value.

― Larry 'Leg' Smith (Tom D.), Thursday, 16 June 2016 17:52 (eight years ago) link
Didn't see the NI game as got distracted by subsequent events, but I thought that - free kick aside - Bale was mostly uninvolved and that might actually have been down to smart tactical instructions from Roy. There seemed to be long periods, especially in the first half, where England were playing these pedestrian little triangles around their left side rather than crossing to the player in acres of space on the other side of the pitch, and I suspect that was to keep the ball as far away from Bale as possible.
First half was mostly shite obviously, and I feel bad for Kane, but England were so much better with Studge and Vardy on in the second half.
Real Championship vibe to the whole game, mind.

yeah not a great game/performance but in a classroom full of massively over-excited 17 year-olds shouting and booing i wasn't really concentrating on the finer points of the game

have the vague impression that germany usually struggle in their 2nd game in a tournament but always win their 1st and 3rd, have no idea if it's true or not.
surprised gotze makes the starting 11.

Just checked WC 2014 games and yeah Germany thrashed Portugal 4-0 first game then drew 2-2 with Ghana, then won 1-0 against USA

There are various reasons not all connected to football but this is a shit tournament so far.

some sweet goals but not many good quality matches p much as expected really
― pandemic, Thursday, 16 June 2016 19:56 (eight years ago) link
there are no shit tournaments for me and i find the lack of an obvious frontrunner pretty interesting. there's not been a lot of "beautiful game" happening sure, but these things run in cycles maybe
― Noodle Vague, Thursday, 16 June 2016 19:57 (eight years ago) link
Hitting even harder that despite this being an utter shite game I can't bring myself to turn off the telly to finish this important job I'm working on. Not even did the dishes like NV.
