South Korea vs Algeria - 8pm (ITV1 & RTE2)

Nuri Sahin

I was just kicking back to see how long it would take for a thread to be created.



Bookmaker Oats has promised to refund all losing bets on Son Heung Min if he doesn't score which I availed of.

Algeria unfortunate not to get early penalty.

Agent Coulson

So I put my money on South Korea to win.

Time for everyone to put money on Algeria now.

murpho999

Since the draw was made, this is the one I have been looking forward to.

I think Algeria could win it and set up a decider with Russia.

Billy86

Socks over knees is a weird look.

Good start so far though.

murpho999

RTE commentator coping admirably with Korean players names!

Billy86

"the keeper comes over and uh, fists it"

"and now Monday to drill it in"

Hyuck, hyuck, hyuck.

Loafing Oaf

Korea are missing a bit of Spark. J Spark.

frisbeeface

Really good finish. Well deserved lead.

Nuri Sahin

Woof. The (under)dogs are biting so much in this World Cup.

Dozen Wicked Words

Nice finish, deserved lead.

eagle eye

Thats an excellent goal. I've fancied them to qualify since their first game where they were unlucky.

murpho999

Striker did well there to hold defenders off, nice finish.

This Algeria side are not bad at all.

Go on Algeria, 2-0

Absoluvely

No marking at all.
Deserved a two goal lead so far though.

frisbeeface

Brilliant header! Algeria are rolling

Billy86

Algeria score 2 in five minutes. They're looking pretty damn good!

LightningBlue

2-0 Algeria. Great cross and header.

South Korean keeper was awful there.

Nuri Sahin

Pick that out.

Dozen Wicked Words

South Korea keeper flapped like a good un

What was the keeper doing

Oat23

You'd think a team managed by a former defender would be better defensively than Korea have been since he took over -_-

GreNoLi

Oh my allah!

eagle eye

2-0, game over. This could get ugly for Korea.

frisbeeface

Algeria and Russia game should be interesting. Hope Algeria come out to attack in that game.

That being said, the way this WC has been going I wouldn't say they've won this game

Son Of A Vidic

I blinked and it's 2-0, meanwhile in North Korea.....

That's right, a team has never come back from 2-0 in the history of football.

Stop.

Crystal Palace's comeback against Liverpool recently still sends shivvers up my spine. :(:(

Although speaking of comebacks, I'm a happy camper today after the hurling earlier.

murpho999

Jim Beglin bragging now about seeing Algeria before.

Take that RTE critics:D

I felt that too, but just think back to Istanbul for come-back inspiration.

frisbeeface

Great finishing

Dozen Wicked Words

It's a battering.

Washington Irving

Ah, ffs. 3-0.

Still kinda funny

catallus

AAArrrggghhh. This is a bloody disaster.

Billy86

Yeah Korea have been poor, but this is probably a top 5 performance so far by Algeria in the whole tournament.

CountyHurler

Dunphy and Michael O'Neill with some egg on their faces now..

Jelle1880

What a game by Algeria, 3-0 now.

GreNoLi

Great stuff.

murpho999

Very impressed with Algeria.

They will give Russia a hard match.

Son Of A Vidic

The Korean defense is diabolical, game over surely.

Al_Coholic

Algeria have been great,South Korea have gone to the dogs

miralize

Algeria have been absolutely dominant....

Oat23

Koreans are all over the place. Can't even make a pass now.

I think I see what you did there.

I can't see any hunger in them though.

Just came back on now and seen this. I was merely stating that it could get ugly because South Korea look hopeless. I don't know what your response was about.

Well I can hardly argue now as they scored another but sometimes teams do turn it around no matter how bad they look.

Think it's unlikely now though.

GreNoLi

S.Korea get one and you never know.

TimeToShine

Slating the manager beforehand for having a "knee-jerk reaction" by increasing training intensity + making 5 changes.

Not a word of praise at half time. If it was the England/Spain manager he would be hailed as the next coming of Christ.
