2018 FIFA World Cup (Official Thread)

I think he's tired, but John Stones has looked very sloppy in extra time.

In my lifetime, I've never seen England win a shootout.

Not in the World Cup, EURO's, even Olympics (as Great Britain).

I guess there's a first for everything, but I think I'll vote with my eyes.

Well...that was unexpected.

 

[scarletmike]

Holy crap...they did it! They exorcised the PK demon!

 

[Dee-Liem]

I was thinking: Would the ref really call it back if Jordan Pickford did a Brianna Scurry and was two steps off the line?

I can say I’ve thoroughly enjoyed this World Cup so far. Bummed that Iceland couldn’t secure a spot in the knockout round, but there has been so much chaos this tournament that it more than makes up for it. Hate that I have to root against England next round, but if they pull it off against Sweden, I hope the win it all.

 

[Dee-Liem]

Wow, Dier's PK went underneath Ospina's hand. Very close.

The one England kick where the shooter opened up is the one that missed.

Well, the apocalypse is now apparently nigh. Been nice knowing y'all.

See you on the other side, Ray.

The Cubs fans of the soccer world.

I don't think it'll make much of a difference in the end, but I think Muslera will want that Griezmann goal back.

That second goal was the death blow, along with Cavani not being available today. France about to move on.

France looks so solid all around. Fun team too.

Still rolling with my Belgium pick, but no clue what lineup they are throwing out there today. No Mertens, no Dembele?

 

[OHSportsFan]

jfc Fellaini, no reason to be out there.
