The smug look he had on his face when he immediately dismissed the penalty shouts. I'm glad he didn't give it, but still, he's a bit of douchebag, isn't he?

Absolutely embarrassing. The techs now there to call them out and I'm baffled why it's not being done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julius Posted Friday at 06:31 PM Author Share Posted Friday at 06:31 PM (edited) SPAIN LET'S GO Germany just didn't carry that momentum like they needed to. That might be it for Toni Kroos. @Hero-of-Time totally agree, the "reason" is it's not there for yellows or whatever, but while I get Nacho obstructing Wirtz from chasing the ball...what harm is he trying to stop when Simon is there and blasting it over to the other side of the pitch? It's crazy. Edited Friday at 06:36 PM by Julius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julius Posted Friday at 06:59 PM Author Share Posted Friday at 06:59 PM Don't get any time to really soak this one in because now it's time to switch over to BBC One for Portugal v France. I'm knackered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hero-of-Time Posted Friday at 07:54 PM Share Posted Friday at 07:54 PM Shoddy first half, especially when compared to the previous match. Wouldn't be surprised if France end up scraping through again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julius Posted Friday at 07:57 PM Author Share Posted Friday at 07:57 PM Both teams look fully capable of scoring, the game has been flowing well in that it's going from left to right and back again...but they just kind of refuse to. Not quite the place or time I was expecting the players' strike to start to be totally honest 35 minutes ago, Julius said: So, 2018? I swear they both missed one at the World Cup in Russia, I'll check on the break Checked on this, because, well, not a great match so far and what else is there to do, really? Can confirm they both missed a pen on Russia. Messi vs Iceland @ World Cup 2018 Ronaldo vs Iran @ World Cup 2018 Great, now I need to find another rabbit hole to fill my time with during this second half... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julius Posted Friday at 08:21 PM Author Share Posted Friday at 08:21 PM Portugal really going for it now, some great attempts from them and excellent saves by Maignan. Shocked Ronaldo and Portugal wasn't shouting for a pen, I don't think it was one but a case could certainly be made. Much more of one than that Mendes dive earlier.

Julius Posted Friday at 08:23 PM Author Share Posted Friday at 08:23 PM (edited) Proper end-to-end now. Great chance for France there. Hope this continues on for the next 25+ to close this game out Edited Friday at 08:23 PM by Julius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julius Posted Friday at 08:31 PM Author Share Posted Friday at 08:31 PM Just been thinking, Martinez probably should've been trying to utilise Ronaldo like an impact sub similar to how Nagelsmann had been using Füllkrug. Promise him he'll come on around the 60th minute to help define the final scoreline, think it'd have more of a mental impact for his team and against the opponents, too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
