@bovidae At last we have someone to support - let's hope he waves the cards and makes a name for himself!
Makes a name for himself in a good way, i.e. no controversy and mistakes.
There were some dreadful studs on foot tackles in that game - from both teams. Maximum pain and not easy to spot when you do it after the ball has gone.
I can attest to that from personal experience. My feet/toes seem to be always bruised this season, and I'm a defender. A rake down the back of the leg/achilles hurts even more.

a personal favourite when you wanted to hobble someone in a ruck. Ah the 90s

You have to wonder how much of a connection Messi actually has to Argentina these days. He moved to Spain when he was 12 I think and would be lucky to spend even a couple of weeks in Argentina per year.

Online commentary says Aussie drew level with a dubious penalty
Nothing dubious about it, clear handball. The ref took a little while to check it but got the correct result in the end. Awesome to see Aus get the draw and stay alive in the competition.

It'll make the inevitable choke against Peru all the more delicious

Unsurprisingly it looks like NZF should make space for two firings

Late win for the Swiss makes they and Brazil the masters of that group. Cracking game that one, Serbia started fast but Switzerland got stronger and stronger. And it broke the record for a World Cup game with the most great left pegs. Shaqiri, Xhaka, Rodriguez, Kolarov, Tadic, Matic

The preposterous situation of banks of Brazil supporters in the stands in the background in their yellow, banks of Costa Ricans in their red. Standing out clear as day.
While on the field all blue plays all white, because ....... I don't know ? They both have blue shorts in their first kit?
I fucking hate FIFA.
Have the all whites been playing in every singles game in this tournament?
Apparently skyblue and white stripes also clash with red and white checkers.
This shit matters to me, sad I know.

They used to do that to take into consideration people with black and white TVs. Farked if I know why they do it now.
