2018 FIFA World Cup (Official Thread)

How many f'ing times did England play it back to Pickford this game? Gotta be 20+.

yeah, they put the keeper in some tough spots today. I heard the announcers talk about Walker's play (England defender) earlier in the game but he made some suspect layoffs to the keeper and was late and out of position quite a few times, especially in the 2nd half.

 

[Dee-Liem]

This has gotta be on goal (like a shot).

I can't remember if Pep dropped John Stones multiple times because of mental mistakes.

Anyone?

Good run this WC for England. But you honestly couldn’t expect to win it all with Harry Kane carrying your team.

 

[Dee-Liem]

Both Croatia goals were tracking mistakes by defenders.

But goalscorers tend to "ghost" into areas, so it isn't all on the defenders.

I keep thinking (multiple times) throughout the years, where would Yugoslavia be if it didn't break up. Gotta be Top 4 easy.

That being said, this WC final could be really close, or it will be a bloodbath. Croatia hasn’t played anyone as good as France in this year’s World Cup.

If Mbappe shows up for the Final, I could see France winning 3-1 or 4-1. If he disappears, it could similar to the game today.

Well.....ever since the capitalist swine destroyed my beloved Yugoslavia.

Always kind of admired Tito.

Always kind of admired Tito.

We all did, Comrade. We all did.

We all did, Comrade. We all did.

So, are they celebrating in the Barberton chicken houses? You had Yanks rooting for Brits so were the Serbs rooting for the Croats?

Im tired of your fancy words for "poachers 'gon poach"

(And there's nothing wrong with that)
