DAT stairs of shame, LOL.

 

[Mr.Marston]

Arsene enjoyed that game

Looool

 

[Phoenician_Viking]

I am pleasantly surprised over the amount of goals in WC so far.

 

[daydream]

Arsene enjoyed that game

uuh

i'll be over here

 

[Salsa]

And a Uruguay that played poor and whose best player is out injured? Yes.

all im saying is losing against Costa Rica like this is as much of a statement to our shape as it is to the shape they're in. They played great, it wasnt all on us.

 

[Oveja Negra]

Holy reverend #$%W#$%&$E at the result!!!!

Also, MEGALOL at Suárez. To know he is feeling like crap right now brings me so much joy to my heart.

That red card, it reminds me the worst Uruguay (10 or 15 years ago), when pretty much every uruguayan player had that rough scumbagish behaviour.

Arsene enjoyed that game

He is a little too happy isn't he

 

[TheAbsolution]

1) Football. Not soccer.

2) 8 groups. 4 teams per group. 2 best in each group qualify for round of 16.

3) Fifa dosen`t allow for video checking, so referees make mistakes and people rage a lot.

4) Uruguay was not supposed to lose to Costa Rica. Thats what makes this so fucking good.

Thanks. Got it.

How do I watch the next game? I'm in the US.

Wenger just stay in Brazil don't come back.

 

[LNBL]

Every single time i get asked why i love football, i showed them the last 5 minutes of Italy vs Germany from the 2006 WC. If they can't get it with that, nothing will.

Yep another perfect example

World Cup of revenges....yesterday was Spain murdered , now Uruguay by CR

[Codeblue]

Thanks. Got it.

ESPN in 50 minutes.

Thanks. Got it.

I fucking love playing England if only for the self depricating British fans. Like sad puppies I just want to give them all a hug. Brits are cool in my book but probably the least confident and pessimistic fan base on earth. And footy threads when they play is entertaining and hilarious. If it wasn't against Italy I'd be cheering for you. Here's to a good match.

Still my favourite world cup match ever, even though it was goalless in normal time.

There have been too many goals in this world cup so far. The defences have been shit. And most teams have played like headless chickens, without control or shape. I guess I'm a purist lol

 

[MudoSkills]

Well, that's Costa Rica being England's easy 3 points out the window.

This wasn't in the script.

 

[v1lla21]

Univision!! They are showing all the games. Check local listings.
Never mind go for ESPN since you are new to soccer and you'll probably want to know what's going on.

 

[Linius]

That's a painful read. Also funny how twelve million was still a normal amount to pay for a player for us back then.



Well, we fixed the same problem by buying Mertens and Strootman and selling them for more. Buying Robinho's might be out of the question but Campbell didn't cost more than 1 million when Arsenal picked him up according to the staff despite his talent being obvious.

We might be derailing this thread a little though

Not derailing at all. Reading about PSV's demise and missed chances is always good fun.

 

[Queen of Hunting]

the melt downs if england win and make it further than normal

 

[Opus Angelorum]

I think that result makes the group harder for England actually.

This WC is like the bad karma that was carried over from last year is finally being felt. So good…

That means USA will win against Ghana.

 

[TrumanBurbank]

WoodenLung do you have a gif of the dude crawling away after the tackle?

The goals are what make it accessible to 99% of fans. There's nothing pure about no goals. I'm not even sure how having no goals could even be considered 'pure'. Does not compute

It's perfectly fine to call it soccer.
Don't let people bully you.

Ahaha typical benfica scum, fuckin hate this crappy player.

 

[Baleoce]

Pirlo god mode initiate.

 

[Nesotenso]

way to represent CONCACAF Costa Rica. Campbell was just immense.

 

[Salsa]

dude gets injured days before the WC and has to sit there watch their team lose without being able to do anything

I get it lol suarez, but think about it for a minute

 

[kingkitty]

great game.

 

[maniac-kun]

itv reporter asked "How far away are England from a good team?", his interviewee quipped "About 4 hotels".

Voyeur Wenger don't care

 

[PandaPedinte]

After Costa Rica I believe in England scoring 3 - 0 againsy Italy.

 

[RELAYER]

I wonder if Klinsmann feels dumb about his "We can't win" comments yet.

/dead

 

[brokenbeans]

Wellbeck and Sterling on the wings oh yes.

 

[bone_and_sinew]

Uruguay's manager is absolutely terrible based on this "performance". Can't imagine they don't have a single playmaker to call upon, and there was no real shape or plan whatsoever. Cavani was terrible on the ball, frankly, but a #9 needs service, and the creative reigns were completely at the feet of a 35-year old who plies his trade in Japan.

Costa Rica did well though. Joel Campbell showed he could compete physically which is so key if you want to be a lone striker. That he could basically win them the game on the football stage shows he's abit special.

They don't have one. Gaston Ramirez is not good and Suarez didn't play. Their midfield sucks creatively.
