This match is not a shining example of the efficiency of VAR.
Jun 25th 2018
22
nope
Jun 25th 2018
23
VAR is just a tool
Jun 25th 2018

I like Spain over Russia, Uruguay over Portugal now that we know
Jun 25th 2018
27
Spain lucky af they’re not playing Uruguay
Jun 25th 2018
34
      Yeah I don't see how another match and a few more days changes it
Jun 26th 2018
35
           Spain wouldn't play Uruguay until the final though...
Jun 26th 2018
36

Jun 26th 2018

nice shot Dembele, that's what the people want
Jun 26th 2018

FRA/DEN sure feels like it's striving to be the first 0-0

I hoped the prospect of not facing Croatia might have lit em up
Jun 26th 2018
51
      Croatia looks tough now, but it's still not a terrible draw
Jun 26th 2018
57
           Denmark will def play their game and go for it
Jun 26th 2018

                Croatia-Denmark should be a great game.

Jun 27th 2018
212
If Mexico could get some semblance of defensive organization
Jun 27th 2018
215
      but they don't have it, they also don't have size or too much depth
Jun 28th 2018

217
ah Keita Balde finally starting for Senegal
Jun 28th 2018

Jun 28th 2018
219
great call on the VAR
Jun 28th 2018
220
This is not, so far, a particularly good match.
Jun 28th 2018
221
not great but Senegal look good going forward
Jun 28th 2018
222
      Not much once they get there, though.
Jun 28th 2018

226
I've got it on mute on the ipad
Jun 28th 2018
227
      japan's been the worst team in this group
Jun 28th 2018
228
           100% wrong, Poland has been the worst team by far
Jun 28th 2018
229
           I was thinking a Poland-Saudi Arabia match would be good fun.
Jun 28th 2018
231
                Panama-Saudi Arabia
Jun 28th 2018

                Poland would beat their ass, they aren't that bad, they just played poor...

           Dafuq?
Jun 28th 2018

                Poland was the worst team in the group but Japan wasn't far behind

more drama to come surely
Jun 28th 2018

This morning has really made me look forward to England/Belgium.
Jun 28th 2018
233
Japan qualifying suddenly gave that game a boost IMO
Jun 28th 2018
234
      exactly, no disrespect to Japan but either of those teams would want the...
Jun 28th 2018
243
Gotta feel for anyone who doesn't make it through because
Jun 28th 2018
235
the way Japan stopped playing completely was pathetic
Jun 28th 2018

Nigeria is super young...they will be back in 2022
Jun 28th 2018

Jun 28th 2018

      On cue.
Jun 28th 2018

           Go figure. Maybe the England hypetrain will slow down now?
Jun 28th 2018
260
                Januzaj had a great year for Sociedad, didn't make this team by fluke
Jun 28th 2018
264
                England is in the knockout round. The hype train is sticking around.

Ok with missing today and tomorrow's AM.

If folks want to get on their high horse why not apply pressure on MO just for wearing an Egyptian uniform.

After all you better believe sisi is fully leveraging the good will to his benefit.

There are a lot of bad guys out there, this is the world. The games are playing in Russia for f'k sake.

Either boycott completely or STFU. ( Not to you obviously, but the whole fake outrage over this was so lame)

my mom works with chechen refugees so I'm definitely partial, but I don't see how the WC being in Russia means there's no issue with setting up camp in Grozny. But whatever this is not the post to go in depth. Plus, Iran-Portugal is about to start

Golden opportunity to pull off an uncanny upset, go to the knockout stage, etc. I've never seen an athlete cry like that, dude made Adam Morrison look like Clint Eastwood. No snark, I probably would have done the same thing. So fucking close.

Man if I miss a contested three with a decent look to win a pickup game I get upset and I am 1) not that good (maybe a 35% shooter) and 2) just playing at LA Fitness. So yeah I could feel dude's pain, plus how fucking glorious would it have been had IRAN sent CRonaldo aka the Big Cronut home to mama?

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

At least those two matchups are set. Russia, I mean they feasted off a shitty group and we got a better look at who they really are today. If Spain loses to them I would feel sorry for their muddas (c) Korean bol in Menace. Uruguay is a better top-to-bottom team than Portugal who frankly is fortunate to have made it out of a shitty group. I think Uruguay will turn around and beat Spain, too, on paper Spain is better but the coach-sacking seems to have them flummoxed.

its what the RO16 is for. I just feel like it would've been worth it to catch out France at the end there lol. As a Portugal fan I was scared of that Croatia team at the Euros and I still would be, I feel like they're less likely to mess around as the other bigger favourites are.

254. "Croatia-Denmark should be a great game. "
In response to Reply # 75


  

          

Croatia is maybe the lowest floor/highest ceiling team left (though there are a few that could potentially lose in Round 1 or reach the semis). They could lose to Denmark or they could go through to the final. Not an easy path for them but no huge obstacles either. I don't think they are an easy matchup for anyone left in the tournament.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

Supposedly a bunch of pictures of him with his favorite prepagos all over the walls. My girlfriend and I wanted to go check it out but it was closed, not sure if permanently or not. I guess their current administration has been cracking down on prostitution or something.

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

and by Nigeria i really mean any African country where kids play for fun

i have nothing to support this really, but ive always believed that no amount of coaching will ever make the US a longitudinal power, because coaching doesnt teach you how to do cool shit. i feel like you learn creativity with your friends at the park, and i dont see a lot of that anywhere ive lived except for small groups of kids of immigrants in some ATL suburbs.

there are like 200M Nigerians, so where is the hitch in the youth development system?

You gotta know where the ref is if you're not going to let go, he wasn't in the crowd and was easy to see front post. It's part of the game and is always going to be hard to judge, but I tend to look at what the other person is doing/grabbing in comparison, when they've both got each others shirts etc. but that dude was calm and just kinda let Masch dig his own grave sorta.

every tourney, he bottles a clear chance. He's lost 3 finals with clear chances that he fucked up.

On paper, sure. And if this matchup does one thing, it'll probably wake up some of the more lackluster French players (looking at you Griezmann). I won't ever take it for granted since Messi is always a problem, but I like the idea of MBappe/Dembele against this so-called defense

I don’t really get why, to be honest. On paper it should work

But that was def clear during CONMEBOL qualifying, @ least from what I was able to watch..

Moreover, per the juve fans I know & on Twitter, his form was shit last year

In response to Reply # 106


          

He’s there on the sideline and making coach-like jestures, but the madness at the end of that game pretty much proves he isn’t managing them any more. Dybala has to make a case to Masch, Otamendi and Messi for what he can bring and where to get on the field.

111. "think I might be just about done with Deschamps"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

sure I hope we pull it off against the Argies, and why not a rematch with Portugal in the 1/4 (though I see Uruguay making a strong case again this year), but truth be told DD's now been in charge 5 years, for 3 majors tournaments, and we're still waiting on the team to do anything memorable. Some people are OK with winning ugly, but I don't think our sterile 4-2-3-1 even gives us a chance of that. And I saw today that the coach will just revert to conservative tactics as a default. I've been railing on Griezou all tournament but the fact that he's played as an offensive midfield is a problem that Deschamps doesn't seem to want to solve.

So when we lose at least we can finally get a more ambitious coach (one hopes), who can unlock the tremendous potential of what is still a very young and promising team. Judging from talk radio I am faaar from the only one who feels this way, the backlash is truly real. Fuck the hype.

High stakes but minimal work, low profile, impossible for him to ruin his reputation. Politically, I have no clue how that would go over with the knuckle-dragging anti-immigrant French contingent, but I don’t think it would fail.

I mean, that guy shouldn't be getting death threats, but he should be getting cut from playing ever again. Mentally, that was a top-notch gaff.

In response to Reply # 210


  

          

My Aunt and Uncle lived in Germany for over 20 years (he's a psychologist who worked on the US Army base) so I visited there every 2 years growing up (starting at 2 years old).

That was my first exposure to national team soccer and it stuck with me (similar to why I'm an Eagles fan with them being my first exposure to the NFL as a kid, via my brother)

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Switzerland, like Poland, was a team thought overachieved in qualifying and maybe didn't have a great chance to get through. I think Sweden will take them out in a close game. We have seen Mexico piece together miracles before (including against Brasil) but I don't see it. I think Brasil is gradually regaining their form. They had a stretch of absolute shit play today but weathered the storm and scored a huge goal soon after. Neymar is starting to play his game and today they got goals from unlikely places on a couple real nice plays as well.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

I hope both sides spend some time in the locker room contemplating the level of performance expected from them, and how they might achieve that level in the second half.

240. "Weird game for sure"
In response to Reply # 225


  

          

Senegal carried the play mostly, Colombia had the ball more, but neither seemed to matter. It came down to who could make one big play, really. Sanchez and Mina have been so fucking solid for Colombia, Sanchez with a great defensive play, Mina with a huge goal. I know they didn't end up needing it but getting a win here I think was great psychologically for Colombia. They played a sloppy first half and took a lot of physical play from a sound Senegalese side.

Senegal probably deserved a better result in the tournament. To me they were the steadiest team in the group. One or both of their games against Colombia and Japan could have gone the other way.

Let's see what happens with Belgium/England. I kind of prefer to face England. I think Belgium was considering resting some guys, I wonder what they will do now. I imagine either side would prefer to face Japan, so now this could be a pretty hot game.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

Japan 0 - 0 Poland Halftime

A poor first half comes to an end. Poland have done little to dispel the feeling that they are the worst team in this group, while Japan have been solid, if little else. They are well aware a draw is enough for them and will be more than happy with that 45 minutes.

The same Japan that beat a lazy ass Colombia?
The same Japan that played an exciting match and came back twice to Senegal?

In terms of effort it’s been Japan and Senegal in the group.

Poland was trash but seems like Colombia was happy coasting in Colombia name— which almost and probably should’ve cost them

In response to Reply # 239
Thu Jun-28-18 02:00 PM by ConcreteCharlie

  

          

They got outplayed by Senegal and were fortunate to come away with a draw. Against Colombia they were spotted a man and a goal in the third minute, not exactly a fair fight. Credit to them for making the right adjustment (used their extra man to neutralize Falcao completely) but they could easily have walked away with a draw there. I know every team has close calls and contingencies but on both factual circumstances and feel their win/draw/loss result could have been a draw/loss/loss result. They also got dropped by a lifeless Poland squad in what could have been a must-win game (had Senegal gotten a goal late, Japan would have needed at least a draw to get through). Let's put it this way, I wouldn't put any money on them in the first round. Senegal I think could possibly have beaten England if that were the matchup.

As far as Colombia being "lazy," I don't think that's a fair assessment though I could see where you'd draw that conclusion. Defensively they have hustled and been very solid. They have been poor in the final third generally and inconsistent in the midfield. I don't want to make James out to be some deity (the reality is they have half a dozen players of whom they can't be without any one of them; not a real deep team) but look at their play with and without him. In the first game they get a goal off a set piece and a good game from Quintero, but James enters as a sub and their offense improves dramatically (he personally had a great chance to tie the game). The second game, he starts and they destroy Poland, fire on all cylinders. Game 3 he goes down early in the match and suddenly no one is giving Falcao service, Cuadrado has to do more grunt work and they have to eat their soup with a fork. Cuadrado forcing the issue was the only way they got anything going against Senegal. So with their full array (or near full array since Carlos Sanchez was off for the first two games), they were very impressive. Without it, they couldn't pass or finish very effectively. Of course it bears mentioning that they did win a competitive group, no real doormats in it like in, for example, Group G or a couple others.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

In response to Reply # 234


  

          

Not saying Colombia is a team to fear, they have been inconsistent AF in the final third, but Japan is not nearly as good on paper and haven't exactly played great to get here either.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

I get why, and they'll probably get stomped in the next round, but almost wished the ref had given them a couple yellows for refusing to play forward lol

Wow, Japan goes through on fair play points.

Senegal (6 yellow) are out because Japan had 4 Yellow cards.

I guess Nigeria could have a real nice team in 2022 but I have been hearing that since like 2002. I would love to see one of these clubs make a deep run.

In response to Reply # 267


  

          

Two wins in elimination play in the past 24 years. This team might be young enough not to care but probably not. Why should we give them the benefit of the doubt? They haven't played *anyone*. Walloping two doormats and then losing an exhibition game doesn't exactly strike fear into anyone's heart.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

266. "Many Serbs still consider Kosovars and Albanians as "terrorists" "
In response to Reply # 265


          

They still refuse to acknowledge the legitimacy of The Hague's war crime tribunal and the results of two decades of investigations which paints a pretty grim picture of Serbia's tactics and aggression in the war. All because there were a handful of Serbs that lived in Albania and Kosovo that didn't want independence and pined for the days of Yugoslavia.
