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

Interesting group...if you think Argentina could beat Nigeria next week.

fuck saved the bar

oh so close

2-0

wow

Get the fuck in!!!!!!!

DASSIT

I think the manager picked the right team this time out.

iceland look lost and have lost any creativity to make plays after the first nigerian goal

nigeria look really good

Cool, cool finish

Musa on fire

Nigeria - Argentina is going to be a great game :)

pro evo 4 goal that

<3

Stellar.

It's a low bar, but I'll say that Iceland is not showing a lot of ability to change tactics if things don't go their way right now.

Yes no one is saying they have another game plan - but they really make the best of the little they have. Its not much if teams like Nigeria start playing against them, but they snuff out any complacency.

If this result holds, then Croatia has won the group, right? I wouldn't rule out Iceland completely, then.

that first goal like a mini bergkamp, delightful

Ah fuck that's a pen

lol that's a pen

Bad defending. Really bad defending.

VAR CHECK LADS

Penaltyball!

Fucking bastard VAR I hope youse miss it

shit I don’t know what happened between leaving work and arriving home, but I like it

hooooo boy

Good stuff - as long as Iceland scores this should be a good finish.

BOOOOOOOOOOOO

If this result holds, then Croatia has won the group, right? I wouldn't rule out Iceland completely, then.

In that situation Nigeria could still just about win the group ahead of Croatia

this is huge if they score here even if they don't win as right now Iceland is +1 on Argentina in goal differential

lol

LOL!!!!!!!!

haha

Lol. The Peruvian special.

Hahahshahahaha fuck you where's your Odin now????

haha yer wazzock

In that situation Nigeria could still just about win the group ahead of Croatia

Could they? Wouldn't they finish after Croatia since Croatia won the match between the two?

Lol. The Peruvian special.

Tsk.

i don't think head to head is a tiebreaker? xpost

Sorry Ned.

Goal difference trumps head to head results I think Fred

it does. points then goal difference then goals scored THEN head to head

Ok

6 minutes extra time? VAR!

here are the scenarios if this result stands (I think):

Croatia wins, Argentina wins - Croatia and Argentina move on
Croatia wins, Argentina draws - Croatia and Nigeria move on
Croatia wins, Nigeria wins - Croatia and Nigeria move on
Iceland wins, Argentina wins - Croatia and Winner of tiebreaker between Iceland and Arg moves on
Iceland wins, Argentina draws - Croatia and winner of tiebreaker between Iceland and Arg moves on
Iceland wins, Nigeria wins - Croatia and Nigeria move on
Iceland draws, Argentina draws - Croatia and Nigeria move on
Nigeria wins, Messi sets off a suitcase nuke in the stadium in rage - everybody in the blast radius moves on

second "Croatia and winner of tiebreaker between Iceland and Arg moves on" should say "Iceland and NIgeria"

so it's going to be more like 8 minutes stoppage now, like that one crazy Copa match a few years ago

What a tragedy for Pulisball on the international stage

it does. points then goal difference then goals scored THEN head to head

... then bookings and dismissals. I kid you not.

FIFA fair play baby

this might be Mexico's year
