Top notch great.

What a fucking match this is. Feels like the first really high stakes game of the tournament.

HOLY FUCK
― fuck the NRA (Neanderthal), Thursday, 21 June 2018 19:48 (five years ago) link
3-0 better than a red imo
― mark s, Thursday, 21 June 2018 19:49 (five years ago) link
OK glad I'm watching Legally Blonde and not this :(
― The Savic Detectives (Noodle Vague), Thursday, 21 June 2018 19:49 (five years ago) link
This is almost as great as that 1998 quaterfinal.
― Van Horn Street, Thursday, 21 June 2018 19:49 (five years ago) link
LOL they are shit.
― womp womp that sucker (Tom D.), Thursday, 21 June 2018 19:49 (five years ago) link
Terrific match - really physical (just short of boiling over, which is what I like) and a mess at times, with some hilarious and brilliant stuff.
― xyzzzz__, Thursday, 21 June 2018 19:49 (five years ago) link
also enjoying commentator repeatedly saying nizhny novgorod tbh
― mark s, Thursday, 21 June 2018 19:50 (five years ago) link
Yeah yeah Ronaldo whatever, Modric today is probably the best individual performance of the tournament and it doesn't look like Argentina had any plan whatsoever to deal with him. Or that they even thought about it. Their midfield is just shit.
― Matt DC, Thursday, 21 June 2018 19:50 (five years ago) link
Congratulations to the goat.

ok lol what how come?
― xyzzzz__, Thursday, 21 June 2018 19:51 (five years ago) link
lmao Argentina have some great players but they are not organised to any fucking shape. Its not about Messi rescuing this!
― xyzzzz__, Thursday, 21 June 2018 19:52 (five years ago) link
I bet Iceland are kicking themselves now.
― womp womp that sucker (Tom D.), Thursday, 21 June 2018 19:53 (five years ago) link
Iceland will get to play an already qualified Croatia for their last game, I think they have a decent chance.
― Van Horn Street, Thursday, 21 June 2018 19:54 (five years ago) link
Yeah, beat Nigeria, hold against Croatia for a point, they’re in.
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 21 June 2018 19:55 (five years ago) link
Depends, Croatia are hungry. Better Argies are knocked out now rather than squeak
― xyzzzz__, Thursday, 21 June 2018 19:56 (five years ago) link
I meant they must be kicking themselves they didn't beat this shower.
― womp womp that sucker (Tom D.), Thursday, 21 June 2018 19:56 (five years ago) link
(One of) the obvious problem with Argentina is that they haven't had a decent coach since forever.
― Van Horn Street, Thursday, 21 June 2018 19:56 (five years ago) link
Actually, what is happening is good karma for selecting Maradona as coach for the 2010 WC.
― Van Horn Street, Thursday, 21 June 2018 20:00 (five years ago) link
Multi xp
Cos my daughter's in the cast - it's the musical - and I'm tired of Arg breaking my heart
― The Savic Detectives (Noodle Vague), Thursday, 21 June 2018 20:01 (five years ago) link
Think Iceland will beat Nigeria fairly comfortably fwiw.
― Matt DC, Thursday, 21 June 2018 20:03 (five years ago) link
cool NV - well they aren't worth it this time around
― xyzzzz__, Thursday, 21 June 2018 20:06 (five years ago) link
lol what happened here

argentina manager now just being called "yerman" on rte

and thats by the anchor, not one of the biyiz
― tired culché (darraghmac), Thursday, 21 June 2018 20:08 (five years ago) link
tbf to Sampaoli, he had a very decent record with Chile.
They’re ludicrously unbalanced and have no Ortega / Veron figure to create anything in midfield. The domestic league is one of the most grindingly attritional of any country.
― Wag1 Shree Rajneesh (ShariVari), Thursday, 21 June 2018 20:10 (five years ago) link
"A coach with sleeve tattoos? Fuck that imo"
innit, get back to your fork-lift truck you fucking degen!
― calzino, Thursday, 21 June 2018 20:10 (five years ago) link
well I found watching argentina burn themselves out quite cathartic anyway
― ogmor, Thursday, 21 June 2018 20:11 (five years ago) link
Until Simeone or Pochettino want a shot, Argentina should prob go with a European manager.
― Minister of the Pillow (fionnland), Thursday, 21 June 2018 20:11 (five years ago) link
Basically, in front, Argentina played with two wingbacks and 2 strikers and an out of position central midfielder who scored 9 goals for club and country over the last 2 season. No attacking midfielders per se.
― Van Horn Street, Thursday, 21 June 2018 20:13 (five years ago) link
Antonio Pulis (xp)
― womp womp that sucker (Tom D.), Thursday, 21 June 2018 20:14 (five years ago) link
Ha. Really hope they don't go like Enrique, who would be a horrible fit, followed by Bielsa stint number two (but can totally see that happening)
― Minister of the Pillow (fionnland), Thursday, 21 June 2018 20:15 (five years ago) link
Why is Pastore isn't in the squad?
― Van Horn Street, Thursday, 21 June 2018 20:18 (five years ago) link
been put out
― tired culché (darraghmac), Thursday, 21 June 2018 20:22 (five years ago) link
Did Di Maria even get on the pitch? Not that it would have made much difference.
― Matt DC, Thursday, 21 June 2018 20:30 (five years ago) link
I think it hurts because every time they flop it gives ammunition to the idiots who underrate Messi
― The Savic Detectives (Noodle Vague), Thursday, 21 June 2018 22:10 (five years ago) link
Why is Pastore isn't in the squad
He's barely played for PSG for the last two or three years
― Number None, Thursday, 21 June 2018 23:07 (five years ago) link
Also that was terrible darragh
