Fans copying Iceland

Was about to post this

Germany is pretty good denying Italia those long passes in the midfield

 

[TheGameshark]

That was a cheap imitation of the Iceland chant

 

[sora87]

He could have killed him there - scottish accent

 

[paperboywriter]

He touched it

Neuer is the fucking best

 

[Oersted]

That Neuer

 

[patapuf]

Those long passes don't seem to work as well for italy. But preventing them also hinders the german offense a bit.

 

[barit]

Game is doughy

 

[Furyo]

Based Chiellini

 

[Cappa]

This is worse than Portugal vs Poland

 

[paperboywriter]

That was genius of neuer. Wow

 

[Deleted member 125677]

boring

 

[longdi]

Why is Italy leaving such a big gap in midfield when they have the ball? 4 players passing backwards in defence, while the rest are high up. Germans are pressing high, is Conte waiting for that one long through ball?

 

[Deleted member 1235]

what a snoozer so far

 

[sora87]

And people were saying this is final material

 

[protomouse]

Neuer is such a great keeper. Just gets the ball out there.

 

[Creamium]

I can already see the pelanties from here

German midfield is extremely good, so I guess Italy tries to bypass it.

This is Portugal - Croatia game again. One team is to cautions and the other has no chance unless they get lucky... Can we just skip to penalties?

We pretty much have no central midfielders, both De Rossi and Motta are out. It's really unfortunate.

 

[Firemind]

What the fuck was that lol

 

[Deleted member 125677]

Finally some action

 

[John Dunbar]

fuuuuuu

 

[piccio_ssl]

porco il cazzo

 

[Shito]

I don't know what you guys are smoking: match is awesome.
Can't understand all the critics here, coupled with the fact that so many of you want Iceland to win it all. ^^

 

[wakajawaka]

This is starting to get fun

 

[TheGameshark]

Italy pls

 

[Corleth the Fey]

Wales better than both these teams.

 

[Tugatrix]

this is a most entertaining match

 

[JP]

As a Welsh fan. I'm a lot less concerned about having to face one of these two teams than I was if we do manage to take out Portugal.

 

[Lima]

Kimmich what are you doing

 

[barit]

Wth !! Germany get your shit together

 

[Rad-]

dat pass

 

[Oersted]

That was very close

And another fuckup by Kimmich

 

[LeadenStride]

Boateng saves again.

 

[Mr Swine]

Whaaaaat????

It could have been a goal ;_;

 

[Ennosuke]

Kimmich is playing really bad...

 

[patapuf]

And people were saying this is final material

It's not like finals are commonly good games.

 

[Envelope]

that long ball omg

if only he had recieved it better ((((((((

 

[Akai__]

Kimmich so bad. What is he doing?

 

[paperboywriter]

this is a most entertaining match

I agree, that's the best football quality on display this tournament.

 

[Shito]

Wales better than both these teams.

Yeah, ok, I'm out of this thread. ^^

 

[massivekettle]

Wait, weren't 2 Italians offside anyway?

 

[Lifejumper]

Had anyone made a ozil joke yet?

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Kimmich.

 

[KingSnake]

Tactically this game is very intense and interesting.

 

[Ghostmaster]

Yeah it's like people forget that the Copa America final ended in penalties and the world cup in the last minutes of extra time

 

[Gormless Noodle]

Had anyone made a ozil joke yet?

No, we were waiting for you. Go ahead then.

 

[Oersted]

Tactically this game is very intense and interesting.

I'm also bored

 

[Xando]

Not liking löw changing the system. Seems like there's nothing working offensively like the poland game

 

[longdi]

Had anyone made a ozil joke yet?

I didnt even know he was playing until the ref blow for half time and i saw his big face.
