Chiellini should get his nose fixed with repeated punches.

 

[Skellig Gra]

I swear if Suarez shoots Pirlo with a shotgun point blank in the face you guys will be "look at these stupid diving Italians, it's so typical!!!"

Well it's not just them. Brazil too.

Hey you leave Pirlo out of this.
He's the only honourable Italian you guys have, that's why he's loved globally.
Your other players can learn from him.

 

[ColossalLazy]

Needs more violence and cards. Ref pls.

 

[John Dunbar]

when italy knows a draw is good enough, expecting anything but a 0-0 match is completely unrealistic.

 

[D4Danger]

I am so sick of watching players get touched and go down holding their legs where they werent even touched screaming. wtf. Get up and stop ruining the game.

It's almost worse now refs are ignoring it because they'll stay down and force the issue which waste even more time. It's so annoying.

If we win it's gonna be because of that long and storied Italy-Blatter love affair.

 

[Rolodzeo]

Gotta get something to eat

 

[Maintenance]

The guy hit himself on Balo, IIRC.

 

[inky]

 

[Anth1888]

Well that was boring.

Barkley doesn't receive the criticism he deserves from pundits and commentators.

 

[Charles Foster Kane]

I hate it when Costa Rica is going ahead fast and then they stop and pass it back.

 

[Chris R]

Can the next games start already?

 

[cripterion]

So are they all pretending to be hurt just to drink some powerade?

 

[Amentallica]

Man, this ITA v URU game is fucking boring.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Dat Cavani body.

 

[AcridMeat]

Chiellini should get his nose fixed with repeated punches.

So many truly horrifying blows and it's all scar tissue now.

Holy fuck another dive really?

 

[figadapaura]

Italy is going for the tie.

Made more attempts to go forward than Uruguay.

Please understand.

 

[sabertoothzombie]

Yup..

Also, I've only been recently following the world cup so I'm fairly new, but what's up with the shoes?

GAF told me it was fashion. So I'm going to believe them on that

 

[bjaelke]

Swapping shirts at half time should be punished.

[dallow_bg]

From the US?

Edit: Bueno

I am, yes.

 

[megabytecr]

The two subs from CR are not working IMO. But good the regs are getting a rest.

 

[Salsa]

ref is gonna catch up on Italy stalling the shit out of everything and is gonna kick balo to the curb. should have subbed him a while ago.

 

[Xrenity]

I am so sick of watching players get touched and go down holding their legs where they werent even touched screaming. wtf. Get up and stop ruining the game.

Video ref would instantly fix this... Shame FIFA is so backwards.

 

[90TilInfinity]

I'm watching Uruguay - Italy. How is Joel Campbell doing?

 

[DSN2K]

Smalling is worst England CB ever,wtf is he doing at the world cup

please watch el clasico later this year.

i guarantee you it can get much worse.

 

[mreddie]

So far, both games are just meh.
Dammit, my hypothesis comes into play again.

 

[Zvonimir Boban]

I'm aware of his club record. He's just a gun for hire that gets pulled on to other all star teams. I was referencing his international career.

So I guess the international careers of George Weah and George Best should imply that they're just overrated marketing creations? Paolo Maldini too?

 

[D4Danger]

Smalling is worst England CB ever,wtf is he doing at the world cup

He plays for a big team. That's a golden ticket in the English game.

See: Welbeck

 

[Xpike]

I get that Costa Rica are not actually trying any offensive at all, but they should consider at least scoring a goal.

 

[Jamie OD]

I see nothing but a bunch of pussies in the Italy Vs Uruguay game.

 

[Mohonky]

I swear if Suarez shoots Pirlo with a shotgun point blank in the face you guys will be "look at these stupid diving Italians, it's so typical!!!"

Boy who cried wolf.

What do you expect. Both European and South American countries are renown for it, some more than others.

Uru vs Ita was always going to be a 'hold the shin and scream' affair though.

 

[flyover]

Swapping shirts at half time should be punished.

There is an argument to be made for Cavani and Pirlo removing their shirts anytime they want.

 

[SargerusBR]

Oh my ....

 

[KingJolly]

Just like with the last two matches. England dominate with the pressure and then somehow fucks it up

 

[UrbanRats]

I don't even want this Italy to advance, pessimism aside, we honestly ain't got a chance, we're playing like crap.
Uruguay isn't doing super great either so far, a boring game, if i wasn't invested in it i'd watch Costa Rica England, maybe that's better.

 

[Buzzati]

I'm sorry, but we are the best soccer players in the world. Our legs cost millions of EUR/USD. We have to protect ourselves when we get hurt. We're not Uruguay - we can't afford to get hurt.




DEAL WITH IT.

 

[barit]

Immobile hasn't done a single decent thing in this WC I'm not sure why people are hyping him up.

Jürgen Klopp says nice things about him. And he is playing now for Borussia Dortmund.

 

[His Majesty]

This is worse than Belgium - Russia.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Smalling is worst England CB ever,wtf is he doing at the world cup

He's young and plays for a team that used to be big

 

[figadapaura]

There is an argument to be made for Cavani and Pirlo removing their shirts anytime they want.

yep

LOL Buzzati

 

[D4Danger]

Just like with the last two matches. England dominate with the pressure and then somehow fucks it up

We were almost undone by a goal kick again at the end of the half.

 

[Zvonimir Boban]

Chiellini you fucking pussy. You're supposed to be a rugged throwback, not a defensive Neymar

Don't think rugged throwbacks are meant to have Economics degrees to be fair

 

[noal]

Yup..

Also, I've only been recently following the world cup so I'm fairly new, but what's up with the shoes?

All the major manufacturers try to outdo each other with more outrageous colours and designs and the players don't seem to have any taste so they lap it up.

 

[Esch]

dudes deciding to just play a friendly game of pick up football today i see

 

[norinrad]

Cavani is even more useless than Torres

 

[Ingeniero]

He plays for a big team. That's a golden ticket in the English game.

See: Welbeck

Come on, his team isn't even top6 in his league.
