Wow Belgium is looking goddamn amazing against Brazil... I hope Brazil is at least able to make it competitive in the next 60 minutes.

Poor Neymar. His antics aren’t working today.

Bad day all around for South America. Great day for Western Europe.

I’m more worried for the state of South Brazilian football. Brazil has been underwhelming the past 2 WCs now. They totally imploded against Germany in ‘14 and now they don’t even make the round of 16? What gives? Too many flopping practices, not enough dribbling?

Poverty breeds good football. Brazil have been one of the BRIC nations for a generation now. They have more money. There are less kids doing keepie-uppies with an echidna in the streets of Brazilian slums. A bloody good recession would improve their football no end.

Guess what muppet booked a holiday (about 6 months ago tbh) where they were completely cut off, no signal and no TV, had to drive to a town and sit in a pub car park watching a small tele' on a stage with a bunch of southern cro-magnons and their feral offspring, but England won, Harry from Leicester City scored and I still don't see the point in Stirling, now we are home and can watch Wednesday in peace.

I give up. What muppet?

Sup Junker.

De Bruyne scored a beauty to put the nail in Lady-boy neymar's coffin, and for that I will be eternally thankful.

this is one of those unfortunate situations where the boss has returned from vacation and wants to retroactively micromanage the last two weeks of work. my calendar is fucked.

Is your boss Tom Bishop. It would explain a lot.

France looked a bit scary last night.

England have a chance later but think we're screwed if we get to the final, France are much better than us.

juner · « **Reply #58 on:** July 11, 2018, 08:36:34 PM »

Only England could fuck up bad enough to make me root for France.

Well done, wankers.

Fucking useless!

Southgate gambled that the donkeys that hadn't turned up (Young, Ali, Rashford and the bastard Stirling) would come good, and the gamble failed.
We crawled to the semi's on a good draw some inspired actions by a few (McGuire, Tripier, Pickford deserve a mention) and luck, and then crawled out, bollocks.
