World Cup 2014

think that's probably just l'oreal avoiding being associated w/ anything like kendall jones

l'orel getting more publicity by sacking someone than continuing to hire her.

Missed a 'rather' there, you can edit it in, yeah?

at 1/7000000000 p much everything is more important than life or death, tbf there's fewer antelopes than that so w/e it works out at idk

One thing that could go the way of the dodo is psychologists for team sports. They have been quite successful at getting out of sorts individuals to perform well by managing the noise outside. Brazil and England used one but it appears their methods do not work with a collective unit.

Thanks.

"It doesn't matter who you meet from the 1990 team, we are always pleased to see each other," former Bayern defender Klaus Augenthaler told Elf Freunde magazine in May. "A fundamental feeling of togetherness has remained".

It's a Fall song is it not?

lol at that augenthaler statement

klinsmann and matthaus were unavailable for comment

hahaha

It's a Fall song is it not?

Anyway just remember that Robert Baden-Powell judges you all from BEYOND THE GRAVE. Where is your stolid, pipe-sucking manhood?

I'm not gonna complain about a yellow when the ref also gives a penalty, but that was never a yellow

was a red, but not a penalty, foul was outside the box

so i guess the ref split the difference or something

lol I leave the room for a beer and there's a goal already

Haha and that yellow for Robben. Guy is insane.

ref is just gonna help Brazil to their well deserved 3rd place, right, i mean the organized the entire tournament, they gotta have something in return :P

Yeah this is going to be a disaster, ref-wise

They'll always have the memories

lol

What if Holland just go on like this?!

offside?

Blind has like a full minute to control that ball

This is sad

That free-kick goes to Brazil?!

when will these fucks ever learn?

I'm pleased for Fred at least, he can't get the blame for this

I'm sure they'll find a way

"It's your fault Jô was playing"

Hehe

Did van Nistelrooy ever play in a World Cup?

Only in 2006. Scored against CIV. But he and Van Basten didn't get along.

Btw on this supposedly not being a penalty. The rules say this, apparently:

That just had to be explained to Clarke Carlisle. You'd think defenders would know that.

I thought he did let go just outside the box tbf, but if that's your argument for not having a penalty awarded against you you deserve it

Ref has missed straight reds for Vlaar and Maxwell in the space of 5 minutes

Fernandinho hacking into Robben's ankle

There's officially no one else but me here right?

right

hate Ramires so much

whether that was him or not

this ref ffs, there will be blood

Good that Hernanes is on. Still kind of wish they had brought Ronaldinho.
