    RTE clown of a commentator said he wouldn't be involved after coming on in 3 games, great header.

    Game back on!!

    Squeaky bum time for Argies



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,267 ✭✭✭Damien360


    Didn’t think Messi was touched in that “tackle” and he went down like a sack of spuds.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,148 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    Bullet of a shot from Holland, just wide.

    Thought that was in, serious power on it



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,791 ✭✭✭✭dastardly00


    I thought that was in!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,506 ✭✭✭Esse85


    How long before Van Dijk goes up front?



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 9,293 Mod ✭✭✭✭mewso


    Yeah much as I love Messi I wish he kept that crap out of his game.

    They remind me of the 1990 team who kicked their way to the final.

    How many dodgy penos has Messi been gifted in this tournament? Didn't even get a yellow card for this because the ref probably wants his autograph after the game:

    If Ronaldo or Neymar got away with that, you'd be foaming at the mouth worse than you do over United.

    Don't get you last sentence is a wall not taking away an attacking option. There is nothing against another player behind the wall. It looks silly but your job is to stop them scoring and giving away a free does not negate you trying to stop it happening

    Think this ref wants Argentina in the final 😬



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,267 ✭✭✭Damien360


    The messi protection is ridiculous. No foul and definitely not a yellow.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,124 ✭✭✭happyoutscan


    Starstruck.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,416 ✭✭✭✭FourFourRED


    Wow. Some reaction that!!!!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,148 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    It's all kicking off here.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,148 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    I don't know did a Dutch player strike out.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,643 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    More carry on from Argentina. Good on Van Dijk.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,416 ✭✭✭✭FourFourRED


    How did VVD escape a card there?

    For all his prancing the Ref. has no control over this game.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,791 ✭✭✭✭dastardly00


    Paredes should have got a yellow for the foul and then another yellow for kicking the ball away after the whistle?

    Edit: What Weepsie said



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,267 ✭✭✭Damien360


    10 mini added. C’mon Netherlands.



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,257 Mod ✭✭✭✭yerwanthere123


    Getting spicy now, would love extra time here!



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 9,293 Mod ✭✭✭✭mewso


    If the Netherlands level this I think it's game over for the Argies.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,643 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    I'm saying the player behind the wall constitutes a second barrier against the attacking team. Defending team should just be allowed one wall or barrier against the attacking team. If they're worried about a low shot, then tell some players not to jump.

    Argies are properly unlikeable, bang average with one superstar in their side!!!

    Dutch games used to be a sea of orange.

    Now there's about 50 fans behind that net. What a crap wc for fans.
