wasted Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Uruguay Brazil would be a great semi. I’m pretty sure Russia owns VAR so they are going to the final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can be used that way, but in football, it tends to be used to describe a team who frequently make dangerous tackles/challenges or otherwise attempt to break the rules. I think that's how he meant it. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brazil is usually the one Latin American side who expunge such tactics, playing ''the beautiful game'' but here you have Neymar's playacting. Personally however I've not rallied around Brazil since the (fat) Ronaldo era of 1998-2002 ish - I supported Brazil in those two finals, against France and Germany, Brazil winning the latter.

And different is when the one who is supposed to arbitrate the match and be impartial, favors one of the teams. A referee can make a mistake. If you are going to acusse a referee of favoring a given team I want evidence. 1 hour ago, killuridols said: Why do you pity him? He's doing pretty well. Define "doing well" Making money?

Belgium - Uruguay would be a far better game than england - colombia cause colombia without james was quite harmless. uruguay and belgium are technically better than the other 2 teams in my eyes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is perfectly fine that he didn't decide to take a chomp out of a third player! Ramos is one of my most despised players in football (along with Pepe). Do you expect me to defend Ramos?

Probably best two footballing teams left are Brazil and France. If anyone wins it other than these two would be a shock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 I could see Maradona being an OD causality - surprised he has survived this long to be honest. I actually like the little bugger. Life is much more entertaining with Diego Maradona around. Watching him react to games in his corporate box is frequently more entertaining than the actual football. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On paper and the way they play, Brazil and France are the best teams. I give Uruguay a huge chance to beat France but France on paper are the better team. But if France and Brazil go through, that’s the final because the other side is pretty weak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nosaj Thing Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Can't do anything but laugh when someone defends piece of shit Suarez for biting an opponent. He should have been removed and banned from football for doing that. He's a shame to Uruguay and Latin America. Can't blame European countries for labeling SA football as 'dirty'. Blame players like Suarez for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
