[World Cup] Group F (GER - KOR - MEX - SWE)

[Baz]

Germany out? :eek:

[Lewis]

lol Yogi Love the bin man's bin man.

[SincereTheRebel]

Germany out? :eek:


Germany to be eliminated in the group stage @8


Lads :cool:

[Pleb]

Played Sincere if this stands :cool:

[Browning]

Realistically both the 2014 finalists could fail to make round 2.

[SincereTheRebel]

Played Sincere if this stands :cool:

I'm shook right now. I want to cash out so bad but I decided I don't want to do that on my pre-tournament bets

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Why is Boateng that far forward?

[Trancemeister]

Oh fuck, my nerves atm. So close to 2-0

[Pleb]

The Germans are having a MELTDOWN!!!

[SincereTheRebel]

Why is Boateng that far forward?

Clueless they are. Besides Kimmich they are piss poor.

[Trancemeister]

1010597623374344193


Listen to the legend.

[Pleb]

Killjoys :moop:

[Trancemeister]

fuck could only withstand for 3 minutes.

[Magic]

Lads :cool:

:lol:

[Browning]

The inevitable late German winner is making this hard to watch.

[SincereTheRebel]

Every time they put the camera on the Germany manager, he is sniffing his fucking fingers. He should have had surgery by now to correct that bad disgusting habit. I hope they don't show him still with his hand down his front.

[SincereTheRebel]

I like the kimmich crossing style. He is shooting the ball into the box.

[Trancemeister]

Boateng sent off!!

[SincereTheRebel]

Yeah get that german off. Horrific tackle. Almost cut him in two.

[Pleb]

VAR you sexy cunts.

[Browning]

VAR can't review a 2nd yellow (allegedly). Must have been the Linesman.

[Pepe]

This better hold so that the no 0-0 dream is shattered.

[Giggles]

This better hold so that the no 0-0 dream is shattered.

It's 1-1.

[Pepe]

It's 1-1.

If this holds then Mexico and Sweden will both benefit from a draw in the last match.

[Baz]

damn.

Was looking forward to the 0-0 between Mexico and Sweden. I bet Jimmy's happy. :D

[Giggles]

:cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

[Trancemeister]

Piss shit cunt

[Pepe]

Fuck off.

[Magic]

Fucking Krauts man. How did they lose the war.

[Browning]

So inevitable. What a twat giving away that free kick.

[Trancemeister]

Durmaz been absolutely useless since coming on.

[Magic]

Sweden manager having a wei sniff now.

[SincereTheRebel]

again, mans turning their back to the fucking ball. I don't do that at five-a-side. Swedish dickheads.

[Pleb]

The Swedes didn't get the counter attack memo.

[Pepe]

It was going to be so beautiful.

[Waffdon]

That was incredible. What a beautiful man.

[SincereTheRebel]

That yellow haired Julian Brandt can fuck off too. He looks like one of those children Hitler used to talk about.

[Dan]

Toni Kroos is carrying Germany so far.

[CJay]

All three teams to finish on 6? :drool: The last round of matches in this group will be tasty. South Korea can still make it too now.

[Pepe]

Mexico and Korea to qualify. :drool:

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Got to a massive tented bar in Budapest just minutes before the goal.

Place went fucking mental, properly behind Germany.

[Pepe]

Fucking Sweden, totally BOTTLED IT there.

[-james-]

Toni Kroos is carrying Germany so far.

I suppose you're still right, but that was the first thing he's done in 180 minutes.

[Magic]

Pontus getting stuck in to the German bench at full time. :D

[randomlegend]

I suppose you're still right, but that was the first thing he's done in 180 minutes.

Nonsense. He gave the ball away needlessly for the Sweden goal ages before that.

[niko_cee]

Sweden couldn't have made a bigger balls up of the last minute of that match if they'd tried.

When Lee Dixon on co-comms knows exactly what is going to fucking happen, then the players on the pitch ought to as well. 'Keeper's had an absolute mare, as did that beardy wanker. Why was the Swedish bench going mental at the end? Did someone get stinkpalmed?

[Trancemeister]

Some of the german staff celebrated right infront of them.

[Bernanke]

Fuck everything. Couldn't we have been shafted 5-0 rather than getting my hopes up?

[Reg]

@niko I don't know why the keeper steps to his left. That would surely be the more difficult place for Kroos to aim. Unless he's expecting Kroos to cross (but why would he nudge it forward to do so?).

PS The commentator chat was at its worst tonight. I like Dixon as a pundit but he and whatshisface on ITV are an awful commentary team.

[Trancemeister]

As expected Durmaz has been targeted with a lot of racism on his social medias after giving Germany the freekick. :facepalm:

[SincereTheRebel]

It was a stupid, unnecessary challenge. The loss hurt me and I have nothing to do with Sweden except for the car I drive. Everything went wrong for the goal.

Giving away a stupid freekick
Larson turning his back in the ball
The goalkeeper steeping to his left just before Kross shot the ball

Sad

[Jimmy Floyd]

You drive a Volvo? You really have aced it.

[SincereTheRebel]

I'm 30 now. I need to start acting mature and growing the fuck up.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I thought black people were banned from driving Volvo's? I don't think I've ever seen it in my life.

I had a Volvo S60 in Croatia the other year and it was lovely.

[SincereTheRebel]

Over here, the Volvo is a popular choice. Its either a VW Golf, Audi A3, Seat Leon, Mazda 3 or a Honda Civic.

[Giggles]

Volvo :drool:
Won't ever be changing from one.

[Boydy]

The V40 is lovely.

[John]

Mahow, what the fuck are you paying attention to if you can confidently state that you've never seen a black man driving a Volvo?

[SincereTheRebel]

Mahow, what the fuck are you paying attention to if you can confidently state that you've never seen a black man driving a Volvo?

Ukrainian web cam tramps

[Lewis]

Volvo are shit hot at the minute. One of very few companies who don't make a bad looking car.

[Pepe]

I like that hatchback they did a few years ago. Don't know if it still exists.

[Giggles]

i like that hatchback they did a few years ago. Don't know if it still exists.

C30? Mate of mine had the T5 until very recently. Fucking beast.

http://image.jookit.com/photos/000/185/807/619/186784739.1024.jpg

[Pepe]

Yes, must be that one.

EDIT: Definitely that one.

[SincereTheRebel]

Ive got the C30. It's nice. Not in white though. Instead ive got beige and brown.

[Pepe]

Sincere. :cool:

Great car.

[Bernanke]

Can't say I feel optimistic about our chances today. Lozano is gonna tear us a new one.

[Baz]

Gonna be home by 3 today so can watch Mexico Sweden. :nod:

It’s not mathematically possible for Sweden and Mexico to qualify (if Germany win) is it? Then sorry Swedes but I hope Mexico qualify.

[John Arne]

It’s not mathematically possible for Sweden and Mexico to qualify (if Germany win) is it? Then sorry Swedes but I hope Mexico qualify.

No, it's not. The only results putting Germany out are them drawing/losing to S.Korea and Sweden beating Mexico.

[Browning]

Sweden can knock them out with a draw but only if Germany lose. They can also be knocked out regardless of the other result if South Korea smash them, but of course that won’t happen.

Edit- Actually no, if Germany lose, they are out.

[Baz]

There’s not a chance in hell that South Korea will win, sadly.

[Adramelch]

No, it's not. The only results putting Germany out are them drawing/losing to S.Korea and Sweden beating Mexico.

If both Sweden and Germany win by 1 goal, but Sweden score more goals (so a 2-1 vs a 1-0 etc), Sweden and Mexico go through on account of goals scored.

[Pepe]

Unfortunately Germany will smash Korea 5-0.

[Adramelch]

Unfortunately Germany will smash Korea 5-0.

Yeah, we're talking about mathematical possibilities. The reality of the situation is completely different, however.

Mexico really screwed the pooch by conceding that late goal against Korea. Any loss now basically leaves them out of the competition.

[Pepe]

Yes, that was stupid. Would be lol if we go out after such a good start.

[Trancemeister]

Sweden line up is unchanged from the Germany game.

[Trancemeister]

[Trancemeister]

10 seconds booking for Mexico :D

[Pepe]

Wanker ref alert.

[Pepe]

Argie, of course.

[Trancemeister]

The fuck isn't that a red card if he handled it outside?

[Pepe]

:face:

[Pepe]

Bent as fuck that wanker.

[Adramelch]

The fuck isn't that a red card if he handled it outside?

Isn't the red card for denying a goalscoring opportunity typically? That wasn't the case here.

[Trancemeister]

Berg just cant score.

[Pepe]

Looking complete shit so far.

[Trancemeister]

Fucking hell that was close. wake the fuck up Claesson.

[Pepe]

Ffs Vela.

[Adramelch]

Mexico's defence looks all over the place.

[Trancemeister]

Korea really close to take the lead. Neuer really screwed up there.

[Pepe]

Both teams look scared here.


Mexico's defence looks all over the place.

They are a shambles.

[Trancemeister]

Damn Korea close again.

[Trancemeister]

VAR penalty

[Adramelch]

That's a really difficult call. I can see the merit in either decision.

[Pepe]

:uhoh:

[Trancemeister]

No penalty :(

[Pepe]

Tough call.

[Trancemeister]

FFS Berg is totally inept to score this world cup.

[Pepe]

Bound to concede from set pieces at some point.

[Trancemeister]

Forsberg :face:

[Adramelch]

It really feels like Mexico only have 2 people defending. The full backs offer nothing in that department so far.

[John]

Layun has amongst the worse decision making I've ever seen at this level. Seems to shoot every time he gets within about thirty yards, and the odd time he doesn't are the only times he should. It's bewildering.

[Pepe]

Sweden looking slightly better so far imo, apart from the last ~10 minutes or so maybe.

[Pepe]

Layun has amongst the worse decision making I've ever seen at this level. Seems to shoot every time he gets within about thirty yards, and the odd time he doesn't are the only times he should. It's bewildering.

Wouldn't be horrible decisions if his shots had not been all disgustingly poor so far.

[Pepe]

Lol at Germany.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Can't wait for Hong Myung-Bo to arrive at the back post at the wheel of a Ssangyong Tivoli in the 89th minute and ram home the winner.

[Boydy]

Has Drogba been on BBC the whole time? I could have sworn it was ITV he was on.

[John Arne]

If both Sweden and Germany win by 1 goal, but Sweden score more goals (so a 2-1 vs a 1-0 etc), Sweden and Mexico go through on account of goals scored.

But, if Sweden beat Mexico by one goal, then Mexico also go down to +1 GD. Which means it would go down to goal difference in games between the three, which would all the same, then goals scored between the three which would be Germany 2, Mexico 1 and Sweden 3.

I think. My head hurts.

[Adramelch]

It doesn't go to goal difference between the three, it goes down to goals scored overall.

[Pepe]

:face:

[Trancemeister]

GET IN!!!!!!!! Augustinsson you beutiful bastard.

[Pepe]

Seriously lol defending.

[Trancemeister]

Germany out atm.

[Pepe]

Players have arrived completely alone on that flank all day long.

[Trancemeister]

Forsberg again :face: He seriously hasn't showd up this tournament.

[Adramelch]

Players have arrived completely alone on that flank all day long.

Ye, it's genuinely like Mexico are playing a 2-7-1 or 2-5-3 of sorts.

[Pepe]

Ye, it's genuinely like Mexico are playing a 2-7-1 or 2-5-3 of sorts.

Alvarez is not a full back. Fuck knows why he insists on playing him there. Layun could backtrack a bit too.

[John Arne]

It doesn't go to goal difference between the three, it goes down to goals scored overall.

https://www.fifa.com/worldcup/news/tie-breakers-for-russia-2018-groups

Fair enough - I got tiebreaker info from Wiki.

Anyway, fucking power cut just as Sweden take the lead.

[Trancemeister]

Gustav Svensson is as unsexy as a football player can get (not talking looks)

[Pepe]

On the ropes right now. They'll concede three at this rate.

[Adramelch]

On the ropes right now. They'll concede three at this rate.

Doesn't really matter whether you lose 1-0 or 3-0 at least.

[Trancemeister]

Penalty!!!!!

[Pepe]

Sold it well.

[Trancemeister]

2-0 Granqvist!!!!!

[Adramelch]

It was once again one of those where I can see merit in either decision. First went in favor of Mexico, so I guess this had to go to Sweden. That's how it works, no?

[Pepe]

Doesn't really matter whether you lose 1-0 or 3-0 at least.

True, but I would have expected them to turn it around, not limp their way through.

[mugbull]

Definitely was looking for it, he did the thing where he stopped running and put himself in front of the Mexican and then collapsed. I guess it's a penalty, though...

[Adramelch]

True, but I would have expected them to turn it around, not limp their way through.

That said, one goal and you're through even if Germany score. Not that you look like you're ever going to score though.

[Boydy]

Son just got booked for diving when he was clearly fouled.

[Pepe]

Definitely was looking for it, he did the thing where he stopped running and put himself in front of the Mexican and then collapsed. I guess it's a penalty, though...

For sure. Still, you shouldn't slide like a spacker in the box.

[John]

That foul given against Guardado there doesn't really matter, but it's genuinely one of the worst decisions I've ever seen given by an official.

[Pepe]

That said, one goal and you're through even if Germany score. Not that you look like you're ever going to score though.

Is it so? What a mess.

[Trancemeister]

Korea has some tasty counterattacks. The Germans are not taking defensive runs.

[Max Power]

Korea gonna win this

[Baz]

Korea gonna win this

Aww man I hope so :drool:

[Adramelch]

Is it so? What a mess.

Well, not anymore. :D

That's Sweden finishing first.

[Trancemeister]

3-0!!!

[Pepe]

:harold:

[Boydy]

Korea gonna win this

Would love to see it but I reckon the Germans will get a winner. Fucking Gomez, probably.

That would put Mexico out, wouldn't it? That'd be a shame. Also don't want to see this German team go through because they're dull and shit.

[Pepe]

Edson Alvarez was a complete disaster all throughout.

[Pepe]

This has to be the biggest bottle job since the loss against the US.

[Trancemeister]

Oh Korea how many counter attacks are you gonna miss.

[Boydy]

How many counter attack chances are Korea going to waste?

Edit: Snap, Trance.

[John]

If I was picking two teams to go through from this group it'd be Mexico and Korea, both so much more fun than the other two. Real shame that turgid Sweden team are going through at all, but if they wind up biffing Mexico I'm banning Trance and Maz.

[Yevrah]

Well, hello.

[Adramelch]

At this rate Mexico will go through and they'll be missing like 5 players in the next round.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Plenty of time for the Germans to win with crushing ease yet.

[Adramelch]

It's all set for a magnificent Switzerland-Sweden tie in the 16. Exciting football at its finest.

Also, if Germany don't go through, that's the third consecutive World Cup where the previous champions go out in the group stage.

[John]

Jonathan Pearce tells us that 'Germany and Brazil going out on the same day before the knockout stages' has NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE, in the same tone of voice he'd adopt when Chaos 2 took on a house robot.

Of course it hasn't.

[Trancemeister]

Korea just can't finish that final pass in their counters.

[Pepe]

Plenty of time for the Germans to win with crushing ease yet.

3-0 probably.

[Trancemeister]

6 minutes stoppage time for Germany.

[Pepe]

6 minutes? Make it 4-0.

[Baz]

Verpiss dich. :roflol:

[Pepe]

SCENES

caps

[Trancemeister]

OMG Germany are out!!

[Yevrah]

Ok, that was nailbiting.

[Trancemeister]

Look at mexican fans :D

[Pepe]

Korea :wub:

[Pepe]

Well, that was an embarrassing way to qualify. Fair play to Sweden.

Germany. :harold:

[Trancemeister]

This is the most epic matchday ever

[Gray Fox]

VAR proving exactly why it needs to be.

[mugbull]

VAR proving exactly why it needs to be.

+1

[Yevrah]

One of the most awesome things ever this.

[Trancemeister]

2-0!!!!! Neuer played as attacker

[P_3]

Glorious scenes.

[Pepe]

Korea :rave:

[Baz]

That’s put them bottom haha.

[Adramelch]

That's genuinely one of the most satisfying eliminations I've seen.

[Max Power]

Neuer pissing about in midfield for the past minute sums up Germany and this teams time passing.

[John Arne]

Beautiful.

[Pepe]

Shame that we fucked it up. Would've been great for Korea to go through.

[Trancemeister]

That korean keeper. Sign him up

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Fuck me.

[Pleb]

Germany :D :roflol:

[Trancemeister]

Champions out in groupstage yet again. Its a curse

[Pepe]

This was great. Wish I had watched the Korea match instead.

[Bernanke]

Love you Pepe, this was the only good outcome. :wub:

[Pepe]

Exactly as planned.

:beer:

[Pepe]

I think I prefer if we play Brazil. It is always fun to have a go at them. Switzerland would probably do us just as Sweden did us today.

[Gray Fox]

That was amazing.

[Adramelch]

Champions out in groupstage yet again. Its a curse

I'd take that curse any time of the day. :tongue:

[randomlegend]

I haven't been paying attention to the games today and just checked the score.

https://i.imgur.com/Enj9XeV.gif

[Boydy]

That korean keeper. Sign him up

He was quality.

[Disco]

Firstly, that's a hilarious set of results. Secondly, who the hell made those the afternoon games, dickheads.

[Max Power]

Because we need Brazil's elimination and Neymar's tears in primetime.

[Disco]

Germany going out is about 10000x better than anything Brazil could conjure up.

[Jimmy Floyd]

I don't know why everyone is so blasé about Brazil. Got to play a team of cornered Serbs and win by the same as Switzerland beat Costa Rica to top it.

[CJay]

I don't know why everyone is so blasé about Brazil. Got to play a team of cornered Serbs and win by the same as Switzerland beat Costa Rica to top it.

Do they need to top it? It doesn’t make much difference to their route does it? They should be fine tonight being able to play on the counter to an extent.

[-james-]

They don't want to top it, path to final is easier if they come second.

[Adramelch]

It's all a bit subjective though. For all we know Belgium or England might be more of a threat than say Spain. Noone has really looked on top form.

[Bernanke]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9s68D1VNwOo

Netherlands, Italy, Germany down thus far. :cool:

[Ian]

This Germany side would still have mentality'd us to death if we'd had to play them.

[Disco]

Cancel that winter break.

[Pepe]

Are Moreno and Herrera missing the next match? That would be our one defender out. Marquez might have to start. :sick:

[Trancemeister]

[Lewis]

They had the Germany match on at the gym, and I left at ninety minutes because it was bollocks. :moop:

[Boydy]

You were at the gym on work time today?

[Lewis]

Flexi-time baby.

[Pepe]

:cool:

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

You were at a gym?

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

It's not 2007, mate.

[Lewis]

I go to use the vending machines.

[Baz]

Do they have Red Card? :drool:

(Anyone else remember that drink?)

[Bernanke]

I fucking love Granqvist so much.

[Shindig]

Flexi-time baby.

I thought they only gave that to working mothers and liabilities?

[Lewis]

And legends.

[Waffdon]

Flexi is indeed fucking brilliant.

[Shindig]

Oh, good. There's still hope for me. Also, did anyone notice Jogi picking his nose as soon as the whistle blew? He's such a scruffy cunt.
