pirlo is a GOD.
italy-england was the best game so far. i honestly expected a boring 0-0 and got an exciting display of football.
i think a 3-3 would have been closer to what happened on the field but considering uruguay was crap, i think both italy and england will qualify and it doesn't matter the order they do it in since they'll face teams from group C, which is the easiest group.

Sterling was the only one who felt dangerous on that team, when Rooney touched the ball you expected a chance to be wasted. It was a good game though, no referee misstakes for once. The only drama was that idiot who broke his foot while celebrating. #-o

Chile/Australia had the most Oscar performances of the day and I sure hope the flops don't become a trend for the rest of the tourney.


Australia to win a game, are you nuts? A draw would be an outsanding performance. They are the weakest team of the tournament by far and they are in one of the toughest groups.
They are a sparring partner just to receive goals, they didn t really need to buy tickets for brazil other than for tourism.

The only team that perhaps is worse than them (Costa Rica) just beat Uruguay with 3-1 so who knows, perhaps we haven't seen thee extent of Spain's collapse yet :lol: :lol: .

Not really, you may say something like "HAN GƖR MƅL!!" equivalent of "HE SCORES!!". That ridicoulus way of shouting GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! is pretty much exclusive to latin speakers I think. Not sure how the French or Italians say it when someone scores though.

Sterling created opportunities but he can't make a final decisive ball, which is an issue. The thing we lacked, by a large margin, was the finish quality from attacking chances.

well to be honest I wouldn't have expected this from costa rica. that result was nuts and is pretty good news for both italy and england. that group remains extremely open, italy took an advantage and it will be most likely a dramatic game england vs uruguay. lol, if costa rica makes it through group stages, that would be an outstanding offset!

france to start the competition today... really don't know what to expect.

Obviously nobody expected a Costa Rica win, but that's not what I was saying.

I actually thought England was going to pull it out, Italy basically went into neutral the last twenty minutes and was careless with the ball, but taking shots from 30m out and beyond is hardly a quality chance.

Fun fact. Last night i betted 10€ on a 1-1 between italy and england. I got pretty pissed off when italy scored as i had lost my bet. Much later, a friend of mine watches my account and tells me i actually won 60€ as i made a mistake entering my bet... I put 1-1 at half time instead of full time! :lol: :lol:
That is the type of mistakes we don t really mind doing! (The other way around would be pretty horrible)

France vs Honduras in an hour.

I like France but I'd like betiko to go nuts and rage here at half time, so I'd like the ref to f*ck them with 1 penalty kick and 1 invalidated goal. They can then score 2 in the second half for the win.

Luck at last, well it wasn't luck as much as justice, Switzerland got a goal wrongfully waved off for offside (per usual), and I had put in some money on Switzerland winning the game. Had already given up and cursed my bad luck when Switzerland scored in the last overtime minute, finally a chance to win back some money.

And in your face Palacios! The dude cuted pogba with his shoes, stepping on him 2-3 times and they both got a yellow card. I was hating this guy. Next thing he does is to run into pogba s back in the penalty area. Result: second yellow card, so out, and a penalty for france! Scored by benzema.
We did 2-3 posts before that. Honduras isn t very impressive to be honest...
