World Cup

I would say no. It's most likely England VS someone else.

Unless its Swedes 1 Turnips 0 in the QF?

 

[jterrell]

Plenty of effort and intent, not a walking place boredomfest by any stretch, but a serious lack of quality near goal. A tame shot deflected in was an appropriate winner.

yea it was just devoid of skill or artistry.
after watching the other knock out games (especially yesterday) this was a snoozefest.

def the type of game my ignorant american brothers whine about when hating on the sport.

So how are you folks from England feeling about your game today? Easy win? PKs?

 

[Londonboy]

Hopeful, ever hopeful.
It's not gonna be easy, for England it never is.

 

[jterrell]

RLC on bench... sigh...

So true but I am pulling for them.

0-0 at HT.
Colombia are clearly trying to rattle England with plenty of niggling.
Cuadrado trying to physically intimidate a centre half twice His size was funny.
Colombia are lucky to still have 11 Men on the pitch, deliberately shoving Your head into an opponents chin (even if He makes a meal of it) is a red card.

England is up 1 nil on Colombia which is good.

 

[Sarek]

Colombia too much anger not enough composure. They will need to settle down if they want to tie this up.

Hopefully, they stay playing like this. It'd be good for England. Come on England!

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Plus, Colombia plays dirty.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Oh no! Ashley Young is hurt.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Is this a football match or a wrestling match? Blimey! Colombia is absolutely filthy with the fouls! The refs need to start sending off Colombian players if this keeps going.

 

[Londonboy]

Colombia's plan A : Kick 'em
Colombia's plan B : Kick 'em harder
They seem to have no interest in playing Footie.
At this point I might even cheer for france against this lot.

Unless, of course, we keep the score the way it is or better. Then we don't have to worry about them anymore.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Wow, an illegally thrown throw-in and the ref misses that. Unbelievable!

Some of the fouls that Colombia are committing would even be fouls in the NFL.

 

[Sarek]

Hold on!

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Dang it! 1-1!

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Right then! We need to retake the lead. And these refs need to start sending Colombians off for these fouls.
