World Cup 2018 is over, now Premier League is my best friend

[Propagandhim]

Sweden are my fucking team from here on out.  They barred us from competing, so if they win it will look less bad for us.  NORDIC PRIDE.

Bye to those beautiful Colombian women we got to see... now we're left with pasty white englishmen 

[Kurt Russell]

So you're still salty about the penalty kick given for holding in the box where beforehand the players knew that this world cup, the referees were issued a directive to issue instant penalties for holding in the box?

Not to mention that this happened about a foot away from the ref, in clear line of sight and no Columbian called for VAR.

Yeah, I'd say it's a clear penalty and you are shovelling salt right now.

considering kane initiated the hold in the box? yeah, no call would have been right.

And i guess we're going to forget switzerland pushing Brasil's fernandinho in the box to get their header? No call was given on that. This ref was garbboooo

[TEEEPO]

australians are equally as ugly

[HardcoreRetro]

This ref is garbboooo

This.

[Madrun Badrun]

australians are equally as ugly

WTF is this bad opinion? 

[Kurt Russell]

salt would be unbelievable.

What's wrong with this U.S ref? geez.

And both these teams have no shot at winning the cup, especially England. The english media are delusional. If Colombia can somehow pull this off without a shred of offense it would be hilarious.

I wouldn't have called that, that's not a penalty kick.

this game is turning to shit.

Think about how bad this side of the bracket is. Whoever advances from the other side has it in the bag.

you're kidding me this kid hits the post.

Colombia and Japan had a chance to be legends. FUCK.

England make it through on a shitty PK call, and then a post.

Fuck off you cunts. I hope Sweden dominates.

How many Pks has england had this world cup? Seems absurd.

Pasty Englishman confirmed.

Eh, passionate football assimilate is better than the Wank Dad one.

[BisMarckie]

England winning was actually pretty great fuckery

[Madrun Badrun]

Because he won the argument?

Actually not, but I'm going to let that one go, seeing as you've taken a big enough L for one day.

[Kurt Russell]

I'm sorry, how did Kane initiate this? Did he lift him onto his fucking back?

[Corporal]

Looking at the post-game statistics.... So many yellows.

When will they decay? I mean, they can't very well drag them with the teams until the finale, right? That'd end in people flopping about on the green like fish fresh outta water.

This side of the bracket is bunk, so it didn't matter either way who won, nor did i care really. But when Colombia tied, it would have been glorious to see England go out in the most ludicrous of ways.  Oh well.

They usually wipe the slate clean after the group stages and then after the quarter finals. FIFA fuck with the rules every World Cup though, so it could very well be different this time around.

They didn't this time after the group stages. Fifa is fucking distinguished mentally-challenged.

Find the full play

[Corporal]

So that means only the last few games will be with "fresh" teams? Oh god, that will lead to so much tactical fouling. 

Damn, FIFA. That's weak.

[Kurt Russell]

Here you go.

Kane did not initiate it. He skinned the defender, the defender pulled his arm, he continued to run and the defender took him down. Sorry.

Do you work for the BBC?

[Assimilate]

I've listened to an ESPN panel, and one from ITV.... are these fuckers delusional?

They're talking about how England could have crushed Colombia but they sat back or some shit. They won the game against a team without it's best player because of a goal post and they're talking like this ?

 

[Valkyrie]

Quarter-finals are gonna be great, mostly anxious and excited about France vs. Uruguay on Friday. I'm with France this year, but won't be salty if they get eliminated.

[Madrun Badrun]

Umm excuse me, but where is your NORDIC PRIDE?

[BisMarckie]

France should have that one. Uruguay's midfield is shaky and they don't have the depth to compensate for Cavani if he can't play.

And we're overdue for some serious Suarez fuckery

[Assimilate]

If Cavani does play i can see Uruguay winning. They're a tight team that's well coached. France can implode at any moment.

[Corporal]

Yah, Southern folk just have more fire and enthusiasm. Or at least it feels like that.

You can turn this setting off. I don't know how people post here with that warning turned on lol.

Eh? But I love it. It's kinda my "live thread lite". No need to install crap or futz around with any userscripts and whatnot. Whenever I lurk on here I keep a buncha tabs open with some crap typed into the edit box, and a press of the preview button will tell me immediately whether someone has replied. It will also will show their posts down below, with the textbox ready to accept my answer immediately. Insta-bore^TMdom. Plus, rather bandwidth efficient.

Of course, that's only good for short-term lurking. But it beats reloading the "show new replies" tab. To get to the reply textbox from there, you'll have to load several pages (the list itself, then the thread plus the wait until it scrolls to the new post, and then the reply page). Waste of time and bandwidth.

[Valkyrie]

Umm excuse me, but where is your NORDIC PRIDE?

Bro, you know very well I can't root for Sweden, they're like Norway's rival country. Denmark as underdogs would've been cool though, but alas.

[Madrun Badrun]

Can't be a rival if you ain't in the tournament.  NORDIC PRIDE.

[Madrun Badrun]

Also, what is there to be rivals over, other than your well-known reindeer feud?

[Assimilate]

I still can't get over the fact that a fucking english striker is the top scorer of the tournament

most his goals are PKs though

Are there no biathlon events for you to watch in July?

[Assimilate]

I initially thought Belgium would be tough for Brazil but now i'm seeing it the other way around. Japanese forwards exposed Belgiums weak ass defense, what will Brazil do?

Hopefully not flop around like guppies. Having Hazard and Lukkaku means you should be wary of ever giving Belgium the chance to counter attack.

Lukakku did dick last game. He's easy to shut down.

[agrajag]

Is Marcelo playing against Belgium?

[BisMarckie]

Do you watch any football outside of the World Cup?

I hope so.

bruh, so wrong

it's absolutely happening. football actually coming home in my lifetime.

great banter seeing people who never made a peep in any other football thread suddenly become absolute experts once evert four years.

just voted for you to cop a ban so i don't have to hear you pretend to know anything about footie again for the best part of a decade.

England has way too many Tottenham players to win anything

oh don't worry i'll be around to see you get embarrassed

[Cerveza mas fina]

England so far only beat panama, tunisia and colombia without james (on pens).

Nothing indicates its coming home with Brazil, France and Belgium in it who all look better.

Norway and Sweden are like siblings who love to hate each other, but it's more of a very old søta bror running joke, not started because of football.

[Cerveza mas fina]

Totally get that sibling stuff.

I imagine if Belgium won Holland wouldnt hear the end of it, especially since we are the ones supposed to be good at football and been in 3 finals.
