OT: Soccer thread

[CH1]

I guess Argentina offense doesn't even bother starting until they're trailing

 

[PlayerToBeNamedLater]

I don't think England had enough defenders out there.

 

[Preston]

The best is how england convinces the entire country that this is the year. Every single major tournament. Time and time again. And then they rugpull. If there was a comparison in hockey I'd say it. I can't think of anyone though.

Piers Morgan humiliated makes this worth it.

I guess Argentina offense doesn't even bother starting until they're trailing

an embarassing shell from england after scoring.

especially since england has never actually been good at a shell.

look at argentina's shell since going up - that's how you do it.

 

[LeafGm]

Shocking that trying to defend a one goal lead by collapsing into a defensive shell for 30+ minutes didn’t work!

You can see it was coming 2 min after they decided to park the bus in front of the net
Idiotic

not sure i've ever seen a "park the bus" give up like 8 point blank chances in 20 minutes.

 

[lecoqsportif]

No vuelve a casa.

 

[Volcanologist]

Argentina are abominable cockmunches, but goddamn that was beautiful to watch unfold

once again it is not, in fact, coming home

He's never recovered from the Nick Fuentes interview

 

[CRL]

Well this is going to be harder for Spain but still doable

England’s goalie made two 10-bell saves and the Argies also hit at least two posts.

Very fortunate that the shell only yielded two goals against. Could have easily turned into a drubbing.

crazy that this is actually gonna be a world cup final:

 

[PlayerToBeNamedLater]

I can't believe they couldn't hang on playing the famous 8-2-1 formation.

I've never seen anything like this before. They looked solid right up until they went up 1-0 and then decided to play like a shell-shocked version of Curacao.

 

[CH1]

Big proxy win for the Azzurri when it mattered. France yesterday. England today. What a week!

 

[MindzEye]

Now Spain beats the Argies and all is well in the world.

Other than all of the things on literal fire in the world, of course.

This is one of the greatest victories in Scottish football history as well.

all we need is Messi or Yamal telling Trump to fuck off on stage.

 

[Deckie007]

Ever since we found out Kane played golf with Trump, we knew what was gonna happen!
