OT: Soccer thread

[MindzEye]

Davies obviously doesn't have much in him, such a shame

If you had told me before the tournament that we were going to be without Davies & Kone more or less the entire tournament, but still make round of 16 and overall have a solid showing, I'd take it. We miss the fuck out of both of those two.

 

[soco22]

Ref lost control and now just handing out yellows.

 

[CH1]

Marsch promised us more Fonz this week… guess it was coach BS

 

[mbow30]

so much sloppy passing.

 

[Preston]

Dreger has more credibility than Marsch when he talks about his team.

 

[Preston]

Davies must have aggravated something last game or during training. Thought he'd get that same 75 minute substitution at the very least.

 

[CH1]

Really poooooo—ooor free kick

 

[MindzEye]

so much sloppy passing.

Every time the pace picks up. One of the hallmarks of this group holding it back.

Yeah. If he’s not in now, something disappoint happened

 

[axlsalinger]

Well that escalated quickly

 

[MindzEye]

Well, this was fun. Do it again in 4 years?

 

[CH1]

It was a good run. Made some friends. Discovered a new chip flavour.

 

[Pwner]

Oh well. Great showing after all. We really missed our injured stars.

 

[mbow30]

De fougerolles fucked up on both goals

 

[MindzEye]

Well that escalated quickly

2 chances, 2 goals. The difference between us and top teams. We had ~10 corners, a dangerous free kick, a handful of dangerous box touches and our best chance was a solid 30 yard attempt by Tajon.

We just don't have the depth of quality in the program to be without our top players in good health and good form.

 

[Pwner]

If nothing else Canada has arrived on the World's stage!

Also, if we can get some playmaking mids, that would be great too.

Our corner: high danger chance ratio has to be among the worst

 

[Preston]

When your country's best dish is soggy potatoes, cheese and gravy, it's hard to develop more talent.

 

[Pwner]

It's probably a different game with Davis pushing the play in the midfield
