FIFA 2018 World Cup Thread

On the netflix thread i mentioned today it was one of my first purchases on Amazon, the white box, i watch it regularly. Brilliant.

That was a masterclass from Hazard in last 15 mins

It was the slightest of touches. We’re not talking the gooch assault here.

1966 England were win the World Cup, Cork win the hurling and Galway the football.

Did it put him off?

This is so true.

This world cup is starting to remind of the 2010 and 2013 All Ireland Hurling championships.

It will be a soft world cup for whoever wins it now.

Courtois deserves all the plaudits there

A gust of wind would put him off.

After 2 years qualifying and then the tournament itself there’s no soft world cup, you thick cunt.

That wasn’t the question. Do you think poking someone in the eye is a foul?

That wasn’t the question you asked. You asked if it put him off. Putting an opponent off when he is trying to score is a normal part of the game, sometimes called as a foul, mostly not. As the Mexican manager says it’s a mans game and somebody should think of the children.

France or Belgium would smash 5 past England in the final. Not sure if England can beat Sweden who have played better opposition. Croatia would also beat England and possibly Russia also. England are shit and have beaten nobody.

Yes, if you knew what the question was why didn’t you answer it. I was trying to be gentle

I did, I said the contact wasn’t enough to put him off. A normal player would have brushed it off and scored. He’s a pussy, should be playing women’s soccer. Actually even there Hope Solo would kick his scrawny ass.

He might be but it obviously did put him off. He closed his eyes for a split second. Why did the defender poke him in the eye if not to put him off, surely this is a foul?

I would say it was incidental contact. If I was refereeing the game I wouldn’t have called a foul. They all use their arms in situations like that, not enough in it for me to give a peno.
