My new least favorite soccer player is the doubledouche that bleaches his hair before a big game.

Romania in France ‘98. https://goo.gl/images/NFVHxs

didnt last long

I think it has been really positive.  Just terrible finishing.  There could have been two-three goals in that half.

Hard to resist the hot take that Zlatan would have 2-3 goals in that half.

Is Neymar in there, or are we mocking someone else? Because Neymar should totally be 'shopped into one of these.

It says “Neymar Family Reunion” in the title.

The guy from Seattle had a great first half.  He not only broke up a ton of plays, he connected well with his forwards.

Low has decided to remain as coach of Germany through 2022 WC.

Surprised he got to make that decision

Surprised he got to make that decision 

It would've been a Low blow if he didn't...

 

[Sinn Fein]

England has taken the unusual step of naming their top-5 Penalty kickers ahead of the match

You're joachim, right?

 

[ChiefD]

he is listed at 6 even, and that is below average for a keeper.

That's the one hole in his game.

Good agent.

Tell me more, tell me more. Does he have a car?

Sweden 1-0 Switzerland - Forsberg 66'

Heads up, Harris!

 

[rockaction]

Heads up, Harris!

Yeah, what was that?  

 

[gianmarco]

As a neutral, I don't know who I'm rooting for here.

 

[Charlie Steiner]

As a neutral, I don't know who I'm rooting for here.

Most of the puns so far have been on the Switzerland side, so there's a lot of good Swedish ones left.

 

[Zow]

As a neutral, I don't know who I'm rooting for here.

As the uneducated neutral, they basically feel like they're the same team.  Yeah, the Swiss possess the ball way more and they have the Swiss Muscle Hamster, but both teams are physical and neither can finish. 

 

[gianmarco]

This ending is so action filled. I don't know how anyone can swatch.

My bad. I was using a "hover to show" extension and it doesn't show titles.

 

[Slapdash]

Me either.  I'm still kinda pissed at Sweden for making a WC run without Zlatan

 

[Zow]

This ending is so action filled. I don't know how anyone can swatch.

I feel like the title of the ending will be, "Swiss Miss."

Makes for a bad saab story.

Knowing Me, Knowing You I think we’ll manage.

Better meatball?

Sweden

Italy

 

[ChiefD]

Totally unrelated to the World Cup, but my dog has taking a liking to Alpo for some reason lately. 

 

[Sinn Fein]

If Sweden go to Pens, do they still use ABBA?

Time to start doing the Chicken Dance!

 

[gianmarco]

Doesn't even look like much of a foul to me.

But how much time is left?

I like Sweden better, but I was rooting for a Suisse win simply because I picked them to advance

Woulda been nice to know.

Interesting game though. Both teams doing what they do and pushing their own agendas it's fun to watch. Too bad it was decided on a deflection but each team had their chances no complaints
