  • The Dutch finished normal time on top and on a high, then did nothing in extra time. They got what they deserved

    Cracking tension game. Despite hating them I’m quite pleased the Argies are through. Would basically just be a Euros without some late South American interest. 

    The dream is we get to the final for an England v Argentina bonanza 
  • I think that Croatia will fancy their chances against Argentina, who aren't as good as Brazil.

    What’s with the Dutch only having 72 away fans?? They always travelled well.

    Argentina to have a late equaliser ruled out after VAR spots a handball. It's got to happen...

    Croatia at a massive disadvantage now from the way the fixtures have worked out.  Extra time twice and a shorter turn round time than everyone else.
  • Messi has won 500 club trophies, it's hardly surprising they're not that exciting!
  • Not my favourite team, but good to know we have at least one non-eurpoean team in the semis. Makes it feel more like a proper world cup rather than a second european championships.

    Morocco is in Africa
    at least one non-eurpoean team
    Doh!

    Not sure four hours will make much of a difference when they play Argentina

    Bah, I suppose they'll be singing their hand of God song all night now. 

    Good saves though, Messiahi to get his world cup after all.

    They had extra time on Monday as well.  Argentina had had an extra two days off, before today.

    Many European sides are well down in support due to the human rights issues and disgruntlement over Qatar.

    Wankers 

    The in-laws keep asking if the reason I don't like them is because of "those  Malvinas island's" 

    No, it's because they're dirty, scummy cheating cnut fucks 


    I can be quite eloquent at times see

    Otamendi (no.19) would be getting laid out if I was one of those Dutch players.

    England could make the ultimate dream happen.....

    End Ronaldos last ever world Cup with him in tears

    Then end Messi's last ever world Cup 

    And win the world Cup!!

    We've got to get past Mbappe first.
  • The thought of losing to them in a final is just to unbearable to comprehend *shudders*

    Can you imagine beating them though?

     yep it's the international equivalent of when we dodged the scum losing to swindon in play off semi
  • I wonder what the record for bookings in a WC game is because 15 of the 33 that actually played were shown yellow cards

    I still think the winner of our game with France will win the cup, it's the de facto final

    I said before the last round the winner of our game v France, if it happened, would be the losing finalists.

    If France win it, you're probably right.

    If England win it, we'll find a way to lose to Morocco in a semi final.

    Who do you think will win? I haven't seen a team better than France or us yet, though of course anything can happen and pretty much has

    Honestly a coin flip, it's too close to call. But don't know if I'm looking at it with England-tinted glasses.

    probably the closest would be the wc final in 2010 i'm afraid with the Netherlands involved as well... 13 yellows and a red (technically 14 yellows i guess as the red was for 2 yellows)
