Proper footballing nation.
Proper footballing nation.
So many of the kits have contrasting shirt/shorts colors. Jimmy will be in heaven.
This is truly terrible stuff.
The fuck are these corners.
This team looks bang average, but should be enough for our usual rd of 16 exit.
Mexico don't deserve to lead, but Poland do deserve to trail. Horribly passive approach. They're both clearly terrified of losing.
Forget giving Europe 8 spots in the 16 team WC. Non-elite European teams are always lame as fuck. Make them 7 and give the extra slot to whoever Renard wants to bring.
My boys are terrified of nothing mate. They're just not very skilled.
This really is vintage Poland/Austria/Switzerland/unremarkable EU nation stuff.
Poland are scared of losing.
They've got such a shit mentality at times.
I was sat here thinking 'lol I bet Mexico have Guardado and that 'keeper on a billion caps each', and they do. Where is Rafael Marquez? Giovani dos Santos isn't that old.
Keown is talking out of his arse.
Get the fuck out of here.
Yeah, it's a pen, the arm business is fine, but he then just lunges across him and gets none of the ball. Stupid as he'd already impeded him enough legally for the 'keeper to get there.
I remember when football wasn't just penalties.
Ochoa was off his line.
Waaaaay what a way to celebrate cap ten thousand.
Lewa what a silly cunt
also Chris Benoit referee
Let's watch the videos fifty more times see if we can find something else to call a PK for.
First moment of coordinated pressing and they win a pen. Get these Ukrainian sympathising bastards out, Pepe.
When are Poland going to stop persisting with this fraud up front? He's clearly not up to World Cup standards.
Saudi topping this group then.
I had the radio on when the penalty was given.
1. Matt Upson, co-commentator, was seething almost to the point of tears about it being given. Voice properly quivering. Sounds like Keown was the same on TV. Are centre backs just weird?
2. The noise when he saved it sounded like Mexico had won not just this, but all future World Cups.
They did indeed go mental, they've been loud all game.
Oh well. Will make it all the sweeter when we send Argentina home.
Mexico were better than Poland, but it might condemn both of them to a group stage exit.
Still not seen a long range shot threaten goal in the tournament. Also a lot of crossfield passes being overhit.
The quality in that game was awful. Players unable to control the ball in the final third. Players repeatedly getting legs tangled together and giving away foul. And just a general lack of skill. This is what happens when footballers are bred to run first and play second.
At least the atmosphere's improved.
The gulf in class between the 2 XIs is ridiculous. Even though France don't normally run riot, here lies a guaranteed raping. -3 for money, -4 for SVN's tears.
Presumably Australia will go 1-0 ahead within the first 10 minutes.
Expect a Deschamps shitfest 1-0 win.
I just want to see if Kuol gets on.
Mbappé has a really weird accent. Hardly sounds French at all.
Now we’re talking.
Hahahahaha.
Hello. Is VAR going to fuck this?
Mon the Roos
Lovely finish.
Some top Frenching from the left back there. Lost them a goal and died in the process.
That pass from Harry Souttar
He’d be in the PL if he didn’t get that injury. 6ft 7 ball playing centre half
