That Saudi 2nd goal will take some beating in this WC.
Brings it down, dummys 2 Argies, beats another then curls a beauty into the far corner.

thought they'd brought on Jamie Allen for a minute.

 

[AOM]

Match attendance reported 8000 higher than the number of seats in the stadium haha

 

[Liquid Gold]

Not sure how I feel about this. Would be ideal for them to go out but I’d rather them not finish second and fall in our side of the knockouts

 

[jordan210]

Ref gives messi and foul for being messi

 

[ProfessorbyGrace]

to be fair they were pretty rubbish and kiefer fucking moore was droning on about looking forward to knocking out england

I believe I stated that they aren’t a patch on the 2016 team. They’re awful to watch, and absolutely toothless. And yes, I’m pretty much 75% Welsh and live in Wales, so I’ll be supporting them regardless.

So your hatred comes from the WUM comments of a very average forward?

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

Argentinas players moaning about time wasting and players lying down injured is just a little bit ironic.

 

[jordan210]

Saudi been to the Rotherham school of shithousing

 

[ProfessorbyGrace]

I'm English though, not Scottish or Welsh so hope they lose every game.

Of course, I’m not talking about a healthy rivalry, I’m talking about unnecessary hatred.

 

[Evo1883]

Poland will give Argentina a good game

no hatred, it's just the "anybody but the english" nonsense makes it mildly amusing when they aren't very good

 

[Evo1883]

Bookies absolutely buzzing , made loads of money with this result as it stands

 

[jordan210]

The ref love a soft yellow.

Thought you were Irish?

 

[alexccfc99]

Doug get your chequebook out and sign Altambakti, brick wall

 

[Nick]

That block on the line as well, game winning!

 

[Evo1883]

I may be wrong , did Argentina lose to a low rank team on opening game before ?

 

[wingy]

Surely they've got to get an equlizer?

 

[AOM]

More crazy amounts of added time

 

[Evo1883]

That was pretty nasty tbh

 

[jordan210]

How the Lino did not spot that head injury is beyond a joke

The ref waving play on too

 

[wingy]

That's shocking from the ref there.

 

[Paul Anthony]

That looked a bad one.

 

[CCFCSteve]

What the fuck was the ref doing there

 

[CJ_covblaze]

yeah isn't it 48 teams next time

Yep. Group stage will be 16 groups of 3. They’re pairing the stadiums so a team would play their two group games in Vancouver/Washington, New Jersey/Pittsburgh, Foxborough/Toronto etc. Will be a R32 then a R16. 2030 will be a similar set up but will probably be in November and December rather than June and July.

 

[CCFCSteve]

Commentator had to backtrack…’all the tricks in the book’

 

[David O'Day]

Thought you were Irish?

grew up in coventry, i support england

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

That was a huge hit on the defender.

 

[Evo1883]

My grandad was Welsh, missus is Welsh, and i was in a Welsh regiment , so it's all light Hearted banter for me with Wales .

Have ALOT of Welsh friends

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Argentina been poor. Saudis - defended brilliantly but dirty. Keeper should be sent off for time wasting !! Hope the defender is ok.

 

[Evo1883]

Saudis have proper ruined the party here haven't they

 

[Evo1883]

England yesterday would have smashed this Argentina side

 

[Evo1883]

Wow , brilliant for the Saudis, what a shock

 

[CCFCSteve]

wow

 

[Paul Anthony]

Have to say, Saudi defended that like they were about to win the whole thing. But, Argentina were very poor. Couldn't offer anything to break them open once they went behind.
