Brazil 2014. The World Cup thread

Alonso looks like he’s trying to get himself sent off

dont be stupid jamie spain are woefully under performing not just doing what they normally do 😈

Before we get too carried away, let’s not forget. Engurland could be in the same situation tomorrow.

Yeah – that would be typical of England to even miss out on being the best of worst…

Yeah Jamie… People actually expected Spain to get out of the group. Unlike…..

the plane is setting of down the runway now

I wouldn’t get on a plane with them, the thing won’t make it off the ground without exploding.

Anyway, it’s our turn tomorrow at the hands, er, feet of Suarez

I’m only going to moan about this once, so here goes: As someone who couldn’t give the slightest **** about how the England team is preparing, or training, or whatever they’re doing at the moment, the constant ‘updates’ during and after games that having nothing to do with them is very very annoying. Please, please just talk about the game being played!! Rant over.

england group wont be certain tomorrow

if we stay in two days longer than spain, im counting that as a bonus

Torres to come on and get a hat trick? 😆

No need, Busquets has his role covered.

Come on Spain…I need you to win 3-2…and then get to the final and be beaten by Brazil to win some money. I’m not asking much!!

canny say it bothers me. The media have one team to focus on due to the shitness of the other ‘home nations’, so….

This goalie disease is catching. Or rather, it isn’t.

I agree, it’s really annoying wh…..THIS JUST IN. ROONEY HAS JUST SCRATCHED HIS ARSE. I REPEAT HE HAS SCRATCHED HIS ARSE. REPORTS THAT HE THEN SMELLED HIS HAND AFTERWARDS ARE UNCONFIRMED…en one if force fed the England team info when I am perfectly happy watching/learning about other teams.

Busquets has his role covered.

Harsh but very funny

I think I can hear the sound of a Spanish trap about to snap shut.

Here comes the big gun.

Costa has had a shocker so far.

Wonder what ‘The Special ****’ is thinking of his new signing Costa?

How did the #4 miss that?

Also, Danny Murphy gets a hefty thumbs up for co-commentator and pundit.

We’ve got to have at least one classic El Niño couldn’t-hit-a-barn-door-with-a-shovel moment before they go home, surely?

I think now is as good as time as any, to admit I have a man crush on Sergio Ramos.

😳

Murphy’s done well indeed. He’s even said “naughty”.

I think now is as good as time as any, to admit I have a man crush on Sergio Ramos.

Just remember his old hair and you’ll be cured:

Must be horrible to be a Spanish fan, 2 nil down and who have you got to call on from the bench, Fernando Torres, a player who’s been off form for so long you wonder if he ever knew how to score goals…

These fans amaze me. If I was reigning champion, but 15 mins from going out, I don’t think anything would console me……

Oh hang on, that’s me on the big screen!! Hello Mum!!!!

The Torres of old would’ve taken that on not passed it back.

i hope the socceroos stick a few past them for good measure

We really do need to see refs being able to stop the clock for injuries (like in rugby). I’m right sick of winning teams spending the last twenty minutes rolling around. 😡

*clips Darcy’s heels*

Oh, and Santi Cazorla is about to score.

Just as the commentator says “lovely feet” it bounces off Torres heel.

euphemism?

it is interesting when you see the stats for how often the ball was in play

Was that effort enough to cure you Jamie?

Commentator good foul? Wtf constanstly moaning about diving but when it results in a freekick in a good position they are impressed. Make up yer mind ffs.

Sad when even Ben Ainslie Sergio Ramos has to resort to such poor play acting

6 mins, blimey

There does seem to have been a lot of injury time in this world cup…

That’s where 6 mins of time added on comes from.

The referee’s had a blinder tonight. Helped make the game.

Cor!
