[DJackson10]

I realize it makes me a terrible human being, but I truly love seeing a player who's just taken a dive to draw a foul get thumped.  "You don't seem to understand what a foul is, here, have one."

I wish guys in the NBA would do this for a guy who constantly flops. You apparently don't know what a foul is so let me show you a real one. Especially a guy who is going for an easy lay up. Foul him hard enough he can't even get an AND1. 

 

[The Gator]

All is forgiven, Alavro

 

[Deamon]

What in the world is going on!

 

[DJackson10]

Morata  

How does this dude continue to get run out there?

He's the Ciro Immobile of Spain. Looks great domestically but can't do a dam for the Country however I will say Ciro has stepped it up past few months for Italy 

 

[The Kansas Comet]

Oyarzabal has been terrible with the ball since he's come on.

Until now

[Capella]

The announcers do this all the time it seems. “Well _______ is very clearly on to the next round”

me looking at the clock: there’s 17 minutes left. 

Just did it again. 
 

that should put it beyond all doubt, all reach for Croatia. ~17 minutes left 

 

[B Maverick]

Cro had two great chances early in ET, don't score, opens the door for Spain....

 

[The Gator]

Just did it again. 
 

that should put it beyond all doubt, all reach for Croatia. ~17 minutes left 

was just going to post "I hope this ends 5-5 and goes to pks" 

 

[Deamon]

I did not expect 8 goals in this game.

 

[DJackson10]

I need advice - how to listen to the games tomorrow on radio/streaming.  Will be driving for 8 hours during both games.

TIA!!

ESPN might have something radio wise. I know during the World Cup they did. Since ABC/ESPN is the affiliate in the US. If you got Sirius try them too and Iheart radio 

 

[Desert_Power]

When was the last time 8 goals were scored in a Euro match?

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

I did not expect 8 goals in this game.

This game is causing Xavi physical pain.  He would have just completed about 1200 passes once it got to 2-1.

 

[B Maverick]

Croatia isn't going away quietly.  Just missed....

 

[The Kansas Comet]

This game is causing Xavi physical pain.  He would have just completed about 1200 passes once it got to 2-1.

It must also be causing Puyol pain - the lack of defensive intensity for Spain has to be driving him crazy.  Croatia nearly cuts the lead in half just 30 seconds into the second extra period.

 

[The Gator]

Almost 4...oof

 

[Deamon]

Croatia isn't going away quietly.  Just missed....

Nah, they already had their miracle comeback.  This one is done.

 

[B Maverick]

Modric looks done.  His control is letting him down.  And he is off as I type this....

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

How gassed does he have to look to make you even consider taking Modric out?

 

[B Maverick]

How gassed does he have to look to make you even consider taking Modric out?

He looked dead and hasn't missed a minute up until this.  And he's not young anymore.

 

[B Maverick]

There's the Jota we know.  I mean Morata.

 

[B Maverick]

And we have less time to wait for the next game to start....

 

[Deamon]

So ....

Spain vs France
Italy vs Belgium


Pretty solid Semi...errr... Quarter-finals.

Never seen one side so stacked.  Should be the final 4 teams.

Still 90 mins to go, we sure France is through?

 

[Deamon]

yes.

 

[Deamon]

I would be thrilled to be wrong though.  Cheering hard for the Swiss.

 

[B Maverick]

Has France been playing a 3-5-2 all tourney?

 

[AAABatteries]

Has France been playing a 3-5-2 all tourney?

I don't think so - think it was a back 4 during the group stage matches.

 

[AAABatteries]

It feels like France can let Mbappe go 1-on-X to get the ball in the Swiss attacking third at will and then just fill in behind him.

 

[AAABatteries]

Embolo seems like a poor man's Lukaku.

 

[Poke_4_Life]

yes.

Update?

 

[gianmarco]

[Poke_4_Life]

I didn't realize this thread has the ability of the other soccer threads to directly impact ongoing games.

 

[AAABatteries]

Swiss were disappointing a little bit in the group but they definitely have a shocker in them.

*Phrasing

 

[QuizGuy66]

Is there a univision radio app?

[Deamon]

Update is I'm very excited!!!!

Pervert.

 

[Deamon]

Awesome... hopefully they can hold France off.  Would love a 2-0 lead right now.

Deamon is an alias for an ESPN announcer?

-QG

 

[AAABatteries]

What a ball by Pogba.  Damn.

 

[Deamon]

Deamon is an alias for an ESPN announced?

-QG

Haha I'm not watching on ESPN... are they saying the same?

But no, just think this side of the draw is incredibly stacked. 

 

[QuizGuy66]

Has France been playing a 3-5-2 all tourney?

Vaguely heard they were "reshuffling" when the lineup was announced on ESPN so probably not

they kept moving Spain on prematurely in the last game telecast.

Ah interesting.  No, I just think France is the superior squad.  But would absolutely love to see them eliminated.

Wanted to find a way to work Lenglet into the lineup I guess ...

How long have you had that one in your ammo hopper?

[B Maverick]

Pogba running 30 yards to foul someone.
