Yeah both are top teams. Sounded like England made some key subs to get the 2 goals in 90 seconds to level, then came the PKs....

I admit, I did like the casual step up and take the shot with little to no stuttering, pausing, faking, etc. But other than that.... ouch.

Damnit, took a knee to the thigh in yesterday's Sunday league matchup. It still hurts.
It was a battle between #2 and #5 in the table. WE (#5) took an early lead as I got on an errant backpass from their defenders to meg the keeper for 1-0. They then scored 3 on some questionable lack of offside calls going into half time. I think 1 was off but 2 were probably ok. The second half was marred by some reckless tackles from behind as our left back ran through the opponent's back twice in 30 seconds, both late and unnecessary. The first wasn't booked and should have been. The second one led to handbags being thrown, 2 red cards on each side and the game being abandoned when their coach got involved. Honestly, our two reds were deserved and they were lucky they didn't get 2-3 more. Since it didn't get to 65 mins, the game is abandoned and may or may not have to be replayed. League Commish does have those game cameras out, so it will be reviewed. I'm curious to see how the punishment is handed out upon review.
Its a mens league but there are a few ladies that play. Ours were making fun of everyone's "punches". Very slap fight looking
On another note, 2 weeks until real games start kicking off and this thread starts jumping again.

Dewey Cheatum & Howe united FC vs Tinkleberry limited this week?

None of those here. Just European preseason and MLS....

We're back! Wrexham kick off away to Soton in 20 minutes for those interested

Ouch, what a way for Wrexham to be welcomed to the Championship.
I am rooting for them, but they aren't going 4 promos in a row.

I have seen better opening games of the season. I have also seen worse

I didnt watch,but sounds like they gave up late goals to lose 2-1. Based on your post, i thought they got blown out...not almost winning

I knew it was Giroud before even clicking on that link.

I didn't watch either, just saw two goals in Fergie time to lose. Always harsh to give up 2 in 90+.

Amazing saves by Kahlina getting results for Charlotte once again.

Dean Henderson, once a red always a red. Saving PKs to beat Liverpool is a great thing.

Yes, a Spursy outcome, but I would best most would have thought that match would have ended 5-0 PSG before it started as well. It's just a glorified friendly, anyway!Now hes getting it.

I do like Thomas Frank and hope he finds success there. Class fella from what I can tell.
YNWA!

Just saw the score and turned this one on for the last ten minutes. Nice day to be the only sad case working in-office today.

Well, Matchweek 1 starts off poorly and I am sure will end just as poorly on Sunday.

Mo with the rare right footer. Team misses Gravenberch. Balance seems wonky with four attacking players. Team has a long way to go to be tight defensively. But 3 points is 3 points.

Just saw the new goalkeeper timewasting rule in effect. Burnley keeper held the ball too long and Spurs were given a corner. In the 4th minute of a scoreless game. Good rule.

Could have given an IFK two seconds earlier if existing rules were enforced. Pointless rule.
B Maverick
Footballguy
IF they were enforced. I am for either one, as long as they enforce them.
titusbramble
Footballguy
As a legal person, this is my problem. I am hugely opposed to anything that just adds legislation to the table when it's not needed. It solves nothing given there are already things within the laws of the game to stop keepers taking the piss.

This is why I love lower league play. Every single game - at least three goals. Six at the one I was at
CletiusMaximus
Footballguy
Everyone agrees it would be preferrable to enforce existing rules as written. We're all constantly shaking our fist at that cloud. That doesn't mean the new rule is "pointless," especially when its used in the first week of the season exactly as intended, to punish timewasting.

Two red cards in the first half of your first match isn't the way you want to start. Feel bad for Mallorca in this one.
B Maverick

Exactly this. Now can they stay consistent in enforcing? True test will be when Pickford and Everton play.

Learned a new rule today -
13.3 Offences and sanctions -- If, when a free kick is taken, an attacking team player is less than 1 m (1 yd) from a ‘wall’ formed by three or more defending team players, an indirect free kick is awarded.
Palace free kick goal disallowed by VAR due to attacking player standing near the wall.
