Check out the archives too. The Ronaldinho and Mkhitaryan articles are particularly good iirc

Costa Rica had a really good chance a few mins ago.
watching this with volume off while also attending training, lol....
― fuck the NRA (Neanderthal), Friday, 22 June 2018 12:19 (five years ago) link
Costa Rica looks better than they did against Serbia, though that isn't saying a lot
― fuck the NRA (Neanderthal), Friday, 22 June 2018 12:20 (five years ago) link
I keep forgetting Costa Rica have a Celtic player in the team 'cos I keep forgetting he's a Celtic player.

Opening up more now that Hack-a-Neymar is subsiding

This is a ridiculously dominant performance and yet Brazil still seem to be making hard work of it.

Wondering if there are any good teams in this tournament

Argentina players have reportedly had a meeting and demanded that Sampaoli be removed as manager before the Nigeria game.

Or cover his arms up at least.

i know kit complaints are getting boring now but this is a fucking travesty apart. the most storied footballing nation looking like one of the generic teams on pro evo

Korea white instead of red vs Sweden yellow. Brazil yellow vs Swiss red. Brazil blue instead of yellow vs Costa Rica white instead of red...
― nashwan, Friday, 22 June 2018 12:52 (five years ago) link
erm Brazil have had that shit all blue away kit for a while now(?)
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 22 June 2018 12:55 (five years ago) link
ok... i mean, as long as we agree it's shit

ossie ardilles says that this argentina side is their worst side ever, poor enough that they won't be able to do anything even with the best player in the world. but even tho it for sure wouldn't solve their midfield or goalkeeper problems, having cron alongside messi does sound p spicy.

If I can stand Tyldesley I can stand anything. That's what I am telling myself. Over and over again.

I always come back to the moment against Germany in 2006 when Peckerman took Riquelme off for Cambiasso at 1-0 up. That was a masterful Argentinian side and they could have gone all the way if that hadn't happened.

And he refused to put Messi on

I think about that substitution every day, what it must be like for Argentinians I can't imagine.

Arrrgh! Peckerman!!!!!! 2006 Argentina probably my favorite international side ever.

Neymar should've have had a couple by now
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 22 June 2018 13:28 (five years ago) link
He's no Cron, that's for sure.
― womp womp that sucker (Tom D.), Friday, 22 June 2018 13:30 (five years ago) link
Maybe the ref's yellow explains Brazil's blue. Ref should just go topless imo

Book him ffs
he hasn't given the pen lol
It was a bit of a dive though, made too much of it.

I mean you absolutely have to book him if you don't give a pen there

Booked now.
― womp womp that sucker (Tom D.), Friday, 22 June 2018 13:37 (five years ago) link

This reminds me of a Gold Cup match

neymar had dome a similar dive outside the box a couple of minutes before the penalty incident
― I'd Rather Kecak (NickB), Friday, 22 June 2018 13:38 (five years ago) link
best schwalbe of the tournament though
― Ludo, Friday, 22 June 2018 13:39 (five years ago) link
that last replay was perfect
defender decides against grabbing the shirt, but Neymar had already decided to dive
― Number None, Friday, 22 June 2018 13:40 (five years ago) link
really into the idea of brazil going out in the group stage now
― ogmor, Friday, 22 June 2018 13:41 (five years ago) link
I'm always open to that idea tbh.
