No Irish, No Yanks, No Clogs - FIFA World Cup 2018

Phil Neville has been replaced by a test card

fair enough tbh

Hernandez certainly the heel to beat so far imo

Mbappe is a freaking joyful player to watch

Mournful tones from BBC One commentary beyond parody now

Happy for AUS despite nul points

Jedinak has G shaggy beard OAT

really I shouldn't be upset as AUS weren't incredibly embarrassed (half expected 4-0 or 5-0 to be the result)

BUT FUCK VAR FOR FUCKING US OVER

I've seen it again and I think it's a pen now lol

This Peru video message to their opponents is wonderfully nuts.

Mooy was fucking brilliant afaict

Aguero starts, Higuain and Dybala on the bench.

Really want Iceland crushed but I've pretty much KoDed everybody I've rooted for so far

I've seen it again and I think it's a pen now lol

a strong man to admit it

Your move, Lawro.

1000% pen imo, VAR shouldn't have been needed to call it tho

theories as to why caballero back to Messi pls

That was a near thing.

Missed a sitter.

Nearly saw it, thanks TV director

woodchucker misses a sitter

irish tv stalwart george hamilton is either genuinely slightly clairvoyant or rte have been fucking up their sound feed by two seconds for twenty years

and tbh i have a strong idea which it is

oy Putin sort out that shadow

Boon shackalack

Park THAT bus motherfuxkers

<3 so good

That was choice.

have that you puffin-eating bastards

what a banger.

Goesergio ya

Glad it's not just me struggling with the amount of shade on the pitch. Argentina wearing their away kit for no good reason doesn't help.

ffssss

game on.

whoa

Fucking keeper, fucking backline

Okay this is great.

there are no good teams at international level

yeeeesss fuck the haters

*bites nails*

Can't believe Kari Arnason is still playing

and i'm still singing his name in the style of Kansas

its quite natural in Icelandic football to play until yr son takes yr spot iirc

They have to do that, there's fuck all people there.

Little know fact to people outside of Iceland is that the 'son' suffix means 'son of'. You can tell the sons of the current players haven't arrived yet, because there's no player named, for instance, Gudmundssonsson yet. That's the next generation.

(^^ sorry, about as much as I'm enjoying this tbf)

Argentina thrashing Iceland on passes 333-70

Anytime Iceland get a hint of space in the Argentinian box things are happening. Dangerous things..

That was good stuff, but God Argentina's defending breaks my heart

Gooonmysson has been impressing at youth level apparently

ARG back four are trash

xp

Hopefully Argentina can just keep picking away at that back 9 until they find the gap

I get it's a bad joke, but Icelanders are named after their fathers given names. The son of Sigurd Gudmundsson would be Gudmund Sigurdsson, not Gudmund Gudmundssonsson. His daughter would be Gudrun Sigurdsdottir. Danish surnames developed the same way (i.e. Christian son of Erik) but we stopped actually naming ourselves after our fathers a while back, and those kind of names are seen as uncool among my generation. My dad is named something like Niels Sørensen (changed for privacy) but I'm named neither Sørensen nor Nielsen. I do call my girlfriend Offred, though.

Yeah no way Messi is lifting this trophy. xps

FP'd you, jesus christ Fred

I guess I enjoy the game even less than you...
