Alas for Peru but the defeats weren't blowouts and Guerrero got his well-deserved goals in the end. Next time, etc.

> England use the colours of the British flag, of course.

there was a grey 'away' kit in '96

The colours of the British soul.

heraldry is the only acceptable answer:

Everyone is put off by lawro's relentless miserabilism, who actually likes the cunt?

oh i understand that would be offputting for most, but for ilxors?

ogmor, Tuesday, 26 June 2018 17:15 (five years ago) link

ilxors dont extend contrarian exceptions to those who were big in the 80s tbf

Croatia are sending out the B team plus Modric. If Iceland go through I think it’s fair to say the whole tournament is ruined.

Argentina have an uncapped goalkeeper who presumably can’t do any worse.

Wag1 Shree Rajneesh (ShariVari), Tuesday, 26 June 2018 17:28 (five years ago) link

all these amazing players on the pitch and I’m rooting for marcos rojo

Finally going insane and watching two games at once. But only one with audio.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:02 (five years ago) link

However tonight turns out it will make me sad on some level

Next time! Cheers, and thanks for the help. Could have been well needed since Denmark decided to play at their absolute worst.

Frederik B, Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:05 (five years ago) link

And that's saying something.

womp womp that sucker (Tom D.), Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:10 (five years ago) link

Frederik B, Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:13 (five years ago) link

MESSIIIIIIIIIII

Phew at that.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:15 (five years ago) link

what a first touch - can watch that all day long.

xyzzzz__, Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:18 (five years ago) link

and second!

k3vin k., Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:18 (five years ago) link

Iceland goal would be lovely right now. Annoyed that Croatia are playing something approximating a proper team.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:19 (five years ago) link

impressive couple of dives from di maria lol

k3vin k., Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:20 (five years ago) link

Bums go to Iceland

Cueva mutilation (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:21 (five years ago) link

how can anyone not root for messi to advance, I don't get it

k3vin k., Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:21 (five years ago) link

literally some of the worst savagery ever, yes

Cueva mutilation (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:23 (five years ago) link

Argentina really on it, not allowing nigeria time to breathe.

xyzzzz__, Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:25 (five years ago) link

Meanwhile it seems like literally nothing has happened in the other game.

womp womp that sucker (Tom D.), Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:26 (five years ago) link

How many changes did Argentina make?

Matt DC, Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:26 (five years ago) link

what a pass by Messi

xyzzzz__, Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:27 (five years ago) link

Feels a little bit more performative than effective at the moment tho, all this running around at the cost of a bit of care and precision with the passing and as I type that ohhhhh what a through ball

Cueva mutilation (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:27 (five years ago) link

shit looks bad for the keeper there.

xyzzzz__, Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:27 (five years ago) link

lengthy suspension for that imo

Agreed but then you realize Mascherano is still playing for them.

womp womp that sucker (Tom D.), Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:28 (five years ago) link

Apparently Messi is the first player to score in a World Cup in his teens, 20s and 30s.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:29 (five years ago) link

Truly he is the Cliff Richard of international football

Cueva mutilation (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:30 (five years ago) link

this argentina side have been horrible for ages, they're decrepit and look to messi to solve all their problems, nigeria have a promising young team and are overdue a WC victory against argentina

ogmor, Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:30 (five years ago) link

Luckyish yellow

Cueva mutilation (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:32 (five years ago) link

Dropping Di Maria for the last game looks like having been a dumb move but dropping Aguero might turn out to be one as well.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:33 (five years ago) link

kicked his own leg

k3vin k., Tuesday, 26 June 2018 18:33 (five years ago) link

I think Balogun got a touch on him
