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

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.

give it half an hour of listening to hoddle and you'll be begging to go back to work instead

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.

(xp) His Dooglas Costa is wounding me though.

Much as I'd love Brazil to have a must-win vs Serbia, fuck this CRC team tbh

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

it's just like watching coventry

(kind of is though right)

this is still 0-0.

brazil is tite

for all their kit foibles over the years i can't remember cov ever fucking up the colour blue quite this badly

Neymar should've have had a couple by now

He's no Cron, that's for sure.

Maybe the ref's yellow explains Brazil's blue. Ref should just go topless imo

Penaltyball!

At last.

its under rev

Hahahaaa

it's just like watching coventry

too soon

Lol

Book him ffs

he hasn't given the pen lol

It was a bit of a dive though, made too much of it.

var rules

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

Booked now.

yeah - and he's booked him now for petulance

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

best schwalbe of the tournament though

that last replay was perfect

defender decides against grabbing the shirt, but Neymar had already decided to dive

really into the idea of brazil going out in the group stage now

I'm always open to that idea tbh.

When did that last happen?

Whomp those suckers, good stuff.

Costa Ricans going down like there's no tomorrow.

haha @ the goalie going down this is great

6 minutes!

Lol finally

Fergie time

watching neymar's frustration with that simulation is as better than a goal

feel sorry for CR but that's been coming

boooo

ffs Tom, you cursed it!

or was it ogmor?

Liverpool and the Premier League and, let's face it, England have won this game for Brazil.

well at least it was phil

Feel sorry for Costa Rica but that was a great moment, lol.

One thing I know, Costa will be playing instead of Willian in the nest game.

... next game

The entire tournament is ruined.

So tired of players crying for no good reason.
