I’m shouting for Scotland tonight despite being English of Irish descent. Got my reasons. Of course Scotland stand little chance apart from upping their game against the auld enemy.
Scotland were the better team tonight and unlucky to not get all three points, imo.
Anyone looking forward to the Argentina-Uruguay game? Hard to tell who the favorites are
Dead tired tonight otherwise probably would’ve watched it
Just checked out the lineups. Acuna starting. It might as well be a champions league final with the talent starting tonight between the 2 teams. And how in the hell does tiny Uruguay have so many world class players?
Who knows Do you know if Gomez made the squad this time?
Never mind he did, let’s hope he gets some game time
Yeh that’s a football culture thing, otherwise China would be the absolutely dominant.
Uruguay Argentina was a somewhat disappointing match. Uruguay completely lack an advanced Mid fielder who can dribble near or in the box and create chances. All of Valverde, Torreira, Bentancur, Vecino are either deeper lying players or prefer to play wider. Then they just had to rely on crosses to create chances and Argentina new what was coming.
Agreed. Uruguay weren’t able to take advantage of Argentina’s questionable defending
Hungary take the lead against France 1-0.
Then the player (Fiola) celebrates by jumping over a tape cordon and kicks the shit out of a table where a reporter was working, scaring the living daylights out of her.
That was funny
Do or die for Germany. Think Portugal will clinically counter them out. But the Germans get a goal. 2-1.
3 goals from Portugal so far… well done!
Yeh well Germany forcing good enough, unfortunate how they went in but they are doing well. Still open tho, good skill, good match.
Cool that Hungary surprised, who will be the victim now.
Germany look irresistable so maybe Portugal can’t handle the speed or they just have something basic wrong with their tactics. A lot can change in the second half though.
Well on this occasion it didn’t. Germany just ploughed on like the machine they are, winning 4-2
Honestly, agreed. Having trouble staying awake watching them. It goes to show that possession doesn’t mean you are playing well
Starting with Gerard Moreno is atleast helping. At this point i´m just hoping they can grow into the tournament. Hopefully when Busquets returns, his smartness will help build some structure in the useless possesion, and bring some directness. Still they are missing a good number 10 to utilize the small spaces. Despite him scoring, I would swap him with Moreno and Ferran on the right.
