Is Robbie Keane the only outfield player at the tournament who also played in WC 2002?

“Cristiano is the best example for our society and youth,” he said. “Not only is he known for his footballing quality but also in terms of humanity.

“He’s an example of determination and ambition on and off the field. Cristiano is the best athlete in the world and of all time. And if there were a prize to distinguish the best person, he would also win it because he’s a great father and friend.”

nakhchivan, Saturday, 18 June 2016 16:15 (seven years ago) link

we've just signed northampton's equivalent (sorry il domenico) - he's certainly off. goal or two might do wonders for his transfer fee

imago, Saturday, 18 June 2016 16:19 (seven years ago) link

Le Bateau Ivre, Saturday, 18 June 2016 16:47 (seven years ago) link

EasyJet overbooked my flight to Croatia last week; they said that A might not be able to fly but that I had to fly without her because I had an allocated seat and I wouldn't get a refund otherwise

savages

anyway, nothing came of it

fairly low key half from Zoltan Stieber, disappointingly

Dumb Canadian who knows very little about football and is wishing he put some money behind his predictions

Ha, can imagine! You're on a great streak.

Le Bateau Ivre, Saturday, 18 June 2016 16:53 (seven years ago) link

thanks! it's been a fun tournament

lettered and hapful (symsymsym), Saturday, 18 June 2016 17:03 (seven years ago) link

Iceland player just shot from his own half; was blocked. Wonder if that's going to be the remotest block of the tournament

imago, Saturday, 18 June 2016 17:22 (seven years ago) link

Iceland are super fit.

Le Bateau Ivre, Saturday, 18 June 2016 17:25 (seven years ago) link

They haven't won all those World Strongest Man competitions for nothing.

Larry 'Leg' Smith (Tom D.), Saturday, 18 June 2016 17:26 (seven years ago) link

Le Bateau Ivre, Saturday, 18 June 2016 17:26 (seven years ago) link

Le Bateau Ivre, Saturday, 18 June 2016 17:43 (seven years ago) link

Look at Hungary showing their small team mentality.

Matt DC, Saturday, 18 June 2016 17:45 (seven years ago) link

Fucking fire works

Le Bateau Ivre, Saturday, 18 June 2016 17:45 (seven years ago) link

So wish Portugal will go down the drain in this group

Le Bateau Ivre, Saturday, 18 June 2016 17:46 (seven years ago) link

How do you even get fireworks into the stadium under this security?

On a Raqqa tip (ShariVari), Saturday, 18 June 2016 17:47 (seven years ago) link

Actually, scratch that. I've just remembered how they do it and would rather not dwell on it.

On a Raqqa tip (ShariVari), Saturday, 18 June 2016 17:47 (seven years ago) link

Austria will surely play better than they did in the first game.

Larry 'Leg' Smith (Tom D.), Saturday, 18 June 2016 17:47 (seven years ago) link

this would be so sweet

ogmor, Saturday, 18 June 2016 17:50 (seven years ago) link

come onnnn iissland!

Poor Gylfi.

Matt DC, Saturday, 18 June 2016 17:52 (seven years ago) link

I mean it was a shit free kick and he made the wrong decision, but still...

Matt DC, Saturday, 18 June 2016 17:52 (seven years ago) link

Entertaining game so far. Portugal should be at least two up.

On a Raqqa tip (ShariVari), Saturday, 18 June 2016 19:39 (seven years ago) link

Awful game imo, all one way. Austria utter tripe.

Drop soap, not bombs (Ste), Saturday, 18 June 2016 20:30 (seven years ago) link

Worst game so far (and thats saying something). Austria are dire, like they dont even know what football is. Portugal trying but so, so incompetent.

Le Bateau Ivre, Saturday, 18 June 2016 20:31 (seven years ago) link

oh yes baby

Drop soap, not bombs (Ste), Saturday, 18 June 2016 20:34 (seven years ago) link
