OT: Soccer thread

[TheCountofMonteCristo]

Yes. Canada dominated Belgium.

and didn't win which is the only result that matters, we didn't win, and aren't getting out of the group which is what any sane observer knew would happen

And you were shocked at the Canadian performance but are more interested in pretending you were right on the internet than admitting you were wrong.

 

[TheCountofMonteCristo]

ridiculous to call the France goal back, you basically can't cheer for goals anymore

I said we would not beat them Correct

I said we would not advance Correct

Admit you were wrong Zeke

 

[CH1]

what a ridiculous end to the FRA-TUN match....not saying the call was wrong but what an anti-dramatic way of celebrating -- cheering on a dime based on what the VAR had to say

 

[CH1]

I said we would not beat them Correct

Admit you were wrong Zeke

for a lawyer, you are pretty shit with words

 

[lecoqsportif]

Euro teams stink.

yeah...cheering for goals has never been fraught with more worry...that ain't fun...

neither is the new offside VAR exactitude...they should consider the adjustment the NHL made and restrict it to the feet, not the whole body

i've always thought the rule should be "if any part of the body is in the same plane as any part of the defender's body".

I personally think it should be one (or both) feet inbounds, like NFL. Controlling your entire body seems a bit random....certainly harder than controlling one's feet.

Australia advances. That should have been our story. Now I have to listen to them talk shit when I go there in a couple weeks.

 

[zeke]

Both these tiebreakers may come into play today:

 

[zeke]

Lmao Poland is going to win the tiebreak with 4 yellow cards to 7 for the dirty Mexicans.

 

[zeke]

Whoa Poland has 5 yellows now.

 

[zeke]

Lol every polish fan watching their phones not the game.

 

[zeke]

Mexico!@@@

Oh fuck he was off. Oh man.

 

[zeke]

Thus js crazy. So many chances for Arg and Mex. Mexico deserves to go through.

 

[zeke]

Argentina over.

Mexico has 3 minutes to score.

 

[zeke]

Saudi scores completely undeserved goal. Mexico out.
